Raptor Expedition Night Fun Run Jan. 18

[RMDesigns]

Glad to see so much interest in the fun run to Vegas. We have discussed it and unfortunately we will no longer be able to email out maps. This will only affect those that are using the IPad. Like I said before, I am sure someone will have the file that night. However, it will be in the Lawrence format. If you have any questions feel free to PM me or give me a call.

That's some good marketing there. I needed to upgrade to a lowrance eventually. Looks like now is the time.

I will have to get on repairing my upper rear shock mount found out when I got home from the toy run that it was only connected by a very small amount of metal the only reason it hadn't feel off on the way back to the bay area was the fact the shock had pushed up against the bed and wedged tight. I thought it felt odd on 5. Hope I can make this trip.

Give Mike Schaffer a call at 510-533-5202. He owns an off-road fab shop in alameda which is close to you. 1924 Willow Street, Alameda Ca 94501. He has done work for me in the past and is a really good guy.

Its a quick fix.

Yes I would like to see how he did yours & yes I was going to address the bottom at the same time because we both know that the bottom is the next to go. As for the trip you said that it is going to be around 450 miles is it split into 225 each direction ?

You talk about staying in LV and leaving Sunday am is that the second leg of the trip or are we going to party all day Saturday and leave when we can on sunday ?

Sure you did.

Here are two pics. Should give you an idea of what was done.

Also the kit from LGE for the upper is a good way to go.

Thanks for the Picts but I think a least the one that failed will need little more work than just adding additional bracing the square tubing has been twisted and ripped. So at this point I'm thinking of just cutting it off at the frame and ether installing a 2"x2" all way from one side to the other and then laser cutting new brackets to hang the shock off of, or do a sandwich plate kinda like outlaws old bump stop set up with a 2"x2" mounted to the plate with gussets and brackets.
