Went and bought a Cobra portable CB for $50 today. Saves me the hassle of trying to install a full CB before Jam. were did you find one for $50 Found it on Kijiji. An old guy in New Glasgow was selling the last one he had. Came with a handset and a 12v power cord. . Pretty good little unit, I can get the truckers on Ch 1 but only in about a 2 mile radius. Would be farther (4 miles) if trees, buildings and what have you weren't in the way. . Can Tire and Walmart have the 18WXST for $99. Its one level higher than mine (17ST) and has access to weather stations.

On the note of changing the air filter. Does anyone know where you can get the cleaner for a K&N filter? Pretty sure that mine needs a cleaning, I haven't done it since I got it last summer.

I heard that the teeter totter won't be run this year because its on a trail we don't have access to this Jam. Is this true? The teeter totter was one of the things I was looking forward to.

Both would be cool to have. I wonder if the second fire truck comes with all the fire gear in it? If so the re-sale on that stuff would be huge.

Just a little info I thought of while reading this thread. This point doesn't really matter to this situation anymore but a Repo Man cannot come onto your private property to repossess a vehicle without a Sheriff or Police Officer in tow. In the US they can do that but here in Canada its trespassing and theft. Now if you left your vehicle on the street in front of your house then its fair game.

Does it re-use the mounting holes in the front of the tub to attach?

There is a trail in Spryfield out behind the golf course on Chamber's Hill. You get to it from Green Acres Rd. Thieves take Jeeps up there to strip them down. My first Jeep an 88 XJ is still up there at the very end of the trail although its just a rusted frame now.

That's some pretty cool stuff. Makes the emblems really stand out against the orange body.

Ok. I forgot the name of it when you told me yesterday. Can you get it at Can Tire? I have some of that Wipe New stuff that restores plastic and rubber but I was apprehensive about it as it dries in a hard coating.

Just wondering what products are good for getting the haze out of plastic windows and what to use on the canvas for cleaning and maybe even making the faded look go away?

This is my first Jam and I've never done any trails in that neck of the woods. So as long as I can do the teeter-totter and I see Donna's reaction as we go over it will be all worth it, lol. . I don't really care about the types of trails just as long as I get out and have some fun with like minded folks. ;D
