Quite a few turned out. Nice parking lot shots. LOL What's up with all the broken cameras?

Too bad no one got a shot of the poor SOB that rolled his rig. The first pic of the red YJ is me getting rejected by the hill that turned him over...glad I didn't get greedy. If you guys want to travel, and the weather holds up, we should talk to the JOCCI guys. They had a run today and it looks like they had an awesome time - 21 rigs there. http://picasaweb.google.com/aviatorjones/JOCCI110809#Had a good time and it was great meeting everyone.

That was a freekin awsome time! Got through the muck more than I got stuck. That second shot of my jeep was what they called the bottomless hole. Even with my tires and lift, what stopped me is when I started pushing mud with my bumper. It was wild. When it was pulled out I could not see my differential due to the mud being packed so hard under my undercarriage. Love the Mud!!! Only downfall of the day was my tow rig breaking down on the way up. Still gotta diagnose that today. Some one should of got a shot of Cowboy pulling to car trailers, with jeeps on them, behind his tow rig. Good thing both his trucks that he uses has way to much horsepower. Big thank you to him for making my trail day possible. I have a hitch welded to the rear of my car hauler that we hooked his trailer up to. Good times guys! I got contacts for the club up in the northeast section of Iowa. Its called TCCO88. The website is www.tcoa88.COM they would like our clubs to get together and communicate about different trail rides.

Heh. Hope you didn't take that the wrong way. I was just saying hello in my typical assenine way. I only take on foot out of my mouth long enough to put the other one in!! I don't mean anything by it, I'm just an idiot.  I feel pretty lucky, there was some difficult terrain and -once again- more mud than I was hoping for. The only carnage I've found so far besides a few new scratches from the brush is that I shucked my driver side front U-Joint. She was shimmying on the way home last night and now I know why. Should be fun to see how badly everything is stuck/rusted in there. I hope the guy I got them from had them apart at least once. Trying to decide if this is the right time to swap out the axle shafts to the 1 piece (TJ style) non vacuum disconnect since they have the bigger U-Joints anyway. Ramblin & Wobblin Wreck
