    Huge thanks to bigrpowr!

    As most of you know I have been working on getting the Mule into the 12's and have gotten to 13.0. So close I can taste it... The truck needs some more stuff to get there...

    Mike D. has generously offered and I humbly accept to trade out my LS diffs for his lockers off of Barney. That should get the Mule into the 12's. The Mule will also be getting Mike's electric fan set up which will help a bit too.

    I want to publically thank Mike for all of the help he has been giving me lately. He has provided some great advice on sponsor shopping and getting the Mule dialed in, going quicker and it is working. Mike didn't have to offer anything or even help but has and I want to recognize that. I am stoked!

    I also wanted to post this up as there have been times in the past Mike and I have not seen eye to eye. However through our many conversations we have become friends I think and Mike is and has helped me a ton. I thought you would all appreciate knowing.

    So with that Thanks again Mike, I am excited to add these componants to the truck and get to the track...........

    another member had a very good idea last night. instead of swapping carriers, we should just swap complete axles, that would make the job a hell of a lot easier. what ever you guys want to do is fine, but that seems like a much better solution. we just need more jackstands.

    mike you're very welcome. lets just get that thing moving a bit quicker and it will all be worth it.

    In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England 's Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he said:
    "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... And how many want out." Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
    1. Jesus Christ
    2. The American G. I.
    One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
