Hello everyone!

I dropped off of the forums for a while to focus on other life things besides trying to outfit my jeep. I am back now and curious about a trail ride and maybe some wrenching before the cold hits.

Still looking to have my RR front leveling kit installed (and eventually a set of KO2s) and curious about a few of you mentioning personal shops to do this. I am not a mechanic/shop guy in this regard but do work as a furniture designer/fabricator. I can offer a little bit of money for installation and can definitely offer an extra set of hands (and a case of beer/meal) for a 4-6 hour install. With this said, is there anyone that is extremely knowledgeable who could help me get this kit installed soonish? I am in Chicago and would be willing to drive a few hours in any direction.

Thanks and I hope everyone is doing well!

In SE Wisconsin, just south of Waukesha. Work just north of Milwaukee. Hoping this sub is still active. Anyone want to do a meetup after this quarantine passes?

If anyone has their Ham, I'm usually listening on the 146.910 New Berlin repeater!

Hi Robert

Pretty quiet on the mid-west forum

We need to put a rally together for the Trans-Wisconsin Adventure Trail for those in the mid-west. It’s one of the few options for our area. I’m headed out to Yellowstone then Alberta CA for a few weeks but maybe we can do something in the fall.

Definitely a trip up to the north woods. Mabey 7 hour plane crash or up there would work also

 

[Connor_Dobbins]

I would definitely be interested in participating in a trip like this!
