Just got home, it was a blast seeing everyone! Next time hopefully a little longer than one night. Dodge survived, just need a new sway bar link and the rear bumper needs some....adjusting... :)

got home about 25 minutes ago ourselves. Great time for sure.

Good times! Can't wait to see the pictures!

Made it home with no issues. The Dodge needs deeper gears and the AC went out on the ride home. Will need to fix that before the trip.

Jeep stuff:
Need to fix oil and carb issue.
Want to move the fuel lines to where the old gas tank was. Need to cut a new hole in the floor of the jeep.
Need to mount the fuel cell so it doesn't move.

Im happy with how the jeep worked and it was fun wheeling something open/open on 31's. Its been a long long time since I had done that.

Great job out there guys! You listened well and didn't do anything too stupid :) Cant wait to get some more runs in.

I think Alan would disagree with your last statement. :))

Alan's pictures are up on facebook. Even with dedicated driver albums! - https://www.facebook.com/HigherGround4x4/

Here's a few random highlights. Users feel free to insert your own from your personal album or other photos.

Ug... I just examined the bottom of my Jeep. Lots of bent metal down there, and a rotational noise coming from one end of the Jeep. Fun times.

Bummer.

whatd you have for armor underneath? time to upgrade :)

I have some front bumper scrapes and on the front skid Kredit made me.

Coming down steps, my rear shackles took the blows. I guess that makes my departure angle better than a Jeep since I never drug bumper? :)

I've needed a steering pump (leak) for over 5yrs so maybe fixing that will keep my steering going when I get on some of the rocks. It boiled over on the drive up (little bit of white smoke from non-exhaust side of engine). But to be honest, I overfilled it since I know it leaks.

I was pretty stoked to see the front suspension cycle so much with Kredit's arm design/coilovers.

Thanks for posting those Mike!

YES! You are going to have to teach me how to do that, please and thank you kind sir!

That's cool. My jeep looks like a toy car! LOL.

Other than the front, I don't have any armor aftermarket armor under it. I did make it to Geoff Larson's shop today and fixed my boo boo. The right axle U-joint worked it's way loose. The retaining clip for the bearing cap was backing out. A few hammer taps and reseating the retaining clip fixed the problem.

Geoff is so the man. :-) Glad it wasn't anything serious/expensive!

I wonder if there are some hidden script commands like rows, thumbsize, etc...
