However, I don’t have a full size 37 with a spare yet. And don’t think I’ll be able to get one by Saturday.
Do you have a buddy going who's on 37's that wouldn't mind "sharing" their spare tire with you?

In SoCal, we had a very tight group of ~10-12 of us who shared parts continually. No matter what broke, if you had the part/fluid/axle/drive shaft/tire etc or a suitable spare, you'd basically loan it to whoever needed it.

Once back at camp, the part was then traded back, purchased, or a new one was bought & mailed to your house.

Granted, our group wheeled together for decades across the US.

Unfortunately all my buddies have hd trucks. And only have 35s. I need to join a local jeep club or something.

I'm signed up with my regular group of jeeps for the blue/black...but as of about an hour ago, I have news to break to them. My wife's grandmother just went into hospice, so she is leaving town in the morning, leaving me with the kids/dogs....so no trip for me.

I ran all over the place to get myself a full size spare (37) this week too, I was supposed to pick it up tomorrow.

I would love to do the BoH trails up there soon though, if anyone would be down for another trip.

Ahhh man sorry to hear. My condolences to you and your family. I was trying to call around all day today as well for a wheel for my spare. My tire will be in tomorrow. I ended up ordering the wheel from quadratec. Typically they get to my door in a day or two. Supposedly gonna ship tonight. It was a last min decision on deciding to go. If it doesn’t get here oh well. Ill def be down to do some harder runs after this time. I just want to get a feel for it this time since it’ll be the first time I’m taking it out.

Thanks.

I didnt know her at all, but I feel for my wife. That being said...I still paid for a ticket for tomorrow. Would anyone want to be me and go up there? It's the blue/black group, but we are all buddies, so it will be chill. One guy is even bringing a stock JL.

Let me know, and Ill give you the info.

Event Check-In will begin at 7:30 AM.

My family and I made the drive to peters mill run today. It was pretty fun for a one time thing lol. Doubt I’ll go there again. But I’m glad we went. Awesome weather out and the surrounding area was gorgeous!

Sounds like a late fall PA trip might be in order to break it in a little!

Thanks guys.......

We moving into our new build in Severna Park the end of June and Monday we have closing on the old house. So I got the ball rolling and ordered a '23 Mojave in High Velocity. About 2 hours ago I ordered the AEV 2" lift.

I'm definitely down to meet up as soon as I take delivery. BTW, my new place has 660sqft worth of garage space.

Craig doesn’t really mess around. Other dealers offer deeper discounts from time to time, but Craig’s process is solid and his reputation is too.
