Hi Brette,

Jeep Wrangler 2 Door, Silver, 2012.

Toe hooks and eyelets fitted on front and rear. 
 

Lifted 3inch so plenty of ground clearance.

I used drive with another club at beginner level with around 6 drives,  however it was becoming difficult book on due to limited capacities. So a few friends recommended you guys.
 

In saying that, I need to drop off of Fridays drive as my wife’s made plans (unbeknown to me) for Thursday evening. But will be joining next Friday for sure.

I can’t seem to find out how to remove myself from Friday drive, is this something you can help with please?

 

Cheers, Jack
