As the second JKX for 2015 gets started, we’re very excited and proud to be part of Nitto’s JK Experience Middle America presented by Discount Tire. Two of our best, Eric Johnson and David Page, made it to the meeting point located in Marble Falls, Texas where they met up with Mel Wade, his crew and the other participants.

As usual Mel and his crew have everything lined up perfectly. The buzz between the invited guests and sponsors is high and everyone can’t wait to see what’s in store.

♫The stars at night, are big and bright. Deep in the heart of Texas!♫

Sticking with the plan (see what we did there?) all the Jeeps are branded with the JKX logo across their windshields. Once all the JK’s have been sticker’d up, they will have a drivers meeting to line out the start of the next day’s wheeling. It’s raining and muggy so the mud should be fresh!! Pshhh…. MUD? No problem!

Eric lends a hand making sure all the rigs are sticker’d up properly.

Mel and his crew go over the plan.

Armed with the latest technology in eye protection, Eric is ready to throw out a beat down with Rhodey’s Dynatrac Axles.

I wonder if these Dynatrac glasses are as durable as their axles?

Stay tuned as tomorrow we’ll post our Day 1 JKX Middle America experience.
