Well, we made it out to the swamp and tested the Locker--it works great! However, the drivers side U joint blew a part and pushed the Knuckle off while going through a mud hole We pulled the knuckle off and took it to a parts store where we rebuilt it. Took it back and had the truck rolling again in 3 hours. Not bad considering how bad it looked at the begining.
Any Florida FSJ's?

Originally posted by JeepsnCellosI'm here in Orlando. Pretty lonely on the FSJ front. My rig is stock (except for 31" tires) but it would be fun to find some mild off-road trails in central FL. I've heard Ocala is reasonable, but even that is a good 1.5 hours away. Leaves me missing home (NW Arkansas)... just pick a road that goes into the woods and you'll have fun!
Small world. I lived in Van Buren/Ft Smith area for more than 15 years, then moved back home to Vermont, then down here to Orlando.

So there are LOTs of us (considering)
Sorry for not getting back on for so long (getting used to the new baby -8 mnths now)... anyway, I figure we'd all be looking to set up a wheel/meet n greet. I like the idea of the FSJ's on the white beach, or maybe even at eglin afb. We obviously need to pick a place, and pick a date and time (gas is expensive, and we all be working hard to drive em) to meet. It's August 2011 now, who wants to shoot for Sept/Oct? It'll be cooler, and we can all set $$ aside for the drive/park fees/food - whatever... we could even plan a camping trip... PANHANDLE FSJ'S (new exclusive club for us?)

Glad I got a few responses
Looking good so far. As for Ocala - I'm sure there are a lot of us that would love to make it out there from the pan handle/florabama area- however for those of you who think its too far to come this way, think of how far it is for us to go to ocala. Maybe something near tallahasee would be more suitable for All of us? However, for now, im looking for the near future (within the next couple months- as mentioned in the PM . For myself and a few others, I'm sure Eglin AFB isn't too far out of the way. Maybe something within a 1-2 hr drive? Let me know what y'all thinkI <3my 's !!
