Sad I'm gonna have to miss it. My transfer case seal blew 1/2 way to twin grove. Got a tow home and now have something else to fix. Have fun! |

Had a great day out today. We had 8 total rigs, one green group & a black one. I went with black group this time & had a blast on some technical trails & big rocks. Had both front tires (!!) come off the bead at different spots on the river that was trail 16. Tom, Kurt & Tom got the bead back both times & spotted me over spots that I jammed the Jeep into. I’d probably still be out there if it wasn’t for the them. Thank you guys for all the help & patience. The day started nice but got colder & windy. No rain but there were rivers of water in all the trials. We wheeled till ~3 before calling it a day. Leaving Rausch, I had a bit more excitement. Had a bad case of death wobble, probably (I think) caused by both front tires severely out of balance. Had the Jeep towed back home so I can leisurely sort that out. It was great to be out & a blast wheeling trails that were mostly new to me. Jeff, Josh - sorry for your troubles traveling in. Looking forward to seeing you guys next time. Thanks to all those who attended, hope you had a great day too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'm really sad I missed it. 13 looked like a blast! Might've been the most water I've seen on there in a long time. |

"16" is the "Black" we ran after "13". Sorry for your troubles getting home. I'm thinking it was a combination of the tires shifting on the wheels and water in the tires when the beads popped. I hope it's not a problem with the rims. Yes, it was a great day! Thanks guys! The weather was cold but not too bad. The "Black" group went straight to the "West", down "J" (very washed out and off camber at the top) to "13" that was a running river..  I ripped my muffler off on"13", I couldn't see any of the voids or most of the rocks. I knew something was wrong when the truck started sounding like a race car. Got to a relatively dry spot and completely detached the muffler from the rear most hanger it was clinging to for dear life and continued through "13" until we got to "16".    After running 16 felt/heard something wrong. Two of the four bolts holding the front driveshaft to the tc flange backed out and were gone. The other two were on their way out! Had spares and replaced all with lock washers. Kept wheeling.  Suresh blew a front driver bead on 20...in the running water.  He had to hilift in the "stream" and we popped the bead back with a power tank...in the stream, fun. Then he popped the front passenger a few yards down the same trail...in the stream. Had to ratchet strap the tire to get it to seat even when using the power tank...more fun. Then Tom's belt broke on the same trail. He had a spare but after about an hour of wheeling his alternator was skipping sending juice to the rig. We think we damaged the connection when changing the belt. Limped out and called it a day Crazy day but ran some cool stuff Thanks to all that came. Thanks Saif (King Khan) for leading the Green group. Hope everyone had fun.
