Post by: yellowxj on January 22, 2009, 08:43:20 AM: Funnier is that I had my friends wife in the passenger seat. She kept saying she was staying in until I got nervous, then she would get out. I told her that by the time I would be worried it would probably be too late. She was pretty excited after that...now she has a tj street jeep and a j2000 off road beast. Sure it was a lot of fun after it was over.

Travis, remember in i guess Summer of 06', you had to pull a maroon CJ7 half way up school bus when we killed the battery from winching? I think we ended up killing the battery, overheating, broken roller fairlead, and a blown front D/S. I was with that group. In our group was a Yellow supercharged LJ, that maroon CJ7, a silver Rubi, and my blue TJ? You wife did a KILLER job driving that back-halfed XJ up helicopter pad that day too. I think we even went to your shop afterward for dinner.

That thing pulled like a train!!!

Its always so cool to hear about stuff that people remember. It was an awesome day. Didnt we have 3 or 4 jeeps hooked up inline to pull up sections of that. That was AWESOME. Thanks for prompting me to remember.
