Apparently this weekend was full of disappointments. Glad nothing major happened and hope everybody makes it home safe

Here are a few pics from the first big obstacle.  Thomas almost rolled here, it took us probably 1.5 hours to get everyone winched through here.  For whatever reason this one got in my head, hell it probably took them a half an hour just guiding me through it.  The rest of the guys looked like real pros going through here!

Here is where Thomas bent his tie rod.  You can see us applying our best middle of the woods engineering to fix it.

Ok here's the list of Carnage.

I knew it wasn't driving very good on the way home and here would be the reason why. It's hard to see in the pic but the 10* bend isn't good! LOL
 

And here's the reason for the anoying rattle sound. I'm assuming this is the catalytic converter but it doesn't look like the normal cats I've seen before. Why would they put this thing so that it hangs below the frame rail?!!
 

Here's the painfully obvious carnage,


Rubicon rock rails "rock!" LOL


This was torn off on the "entry hill" to 30! LOL

Wow!  Rough ride this weekend.  Glad the carnage was nothing too major.

We had a tie rod issue on the JeepFest trail today as well.

I know everyone dreads the wet days but it makes for great practice. The extra challenge is fun every now and then. The learning curve is very steep on a weekend like this one...which I guess is one positive for everyone's carnage. The wet soil seemed like butter or kitchen grease smeared on the rocks, so you can really get a feel for your vehicle and throttle control and how it reacts.

My list of carnage: $9 parts store side mirror shattered, good news is my homemade mount is fine so that's a quick fix. Must have been the speed holes on the gusset that saved it //;D//


A fan relay also also quit on me so I had to run a jumper and un plug the fan when turning the truck off.

Also found this on two rims when unloading and washing off the truck. One is pretty close to the bead seat so it will probably loose air easier now when aired down. Guess I won't wont have any resale value in these rims. Bead locks are long overdue

Here are the few other pics and videos I have. This is the tough ledge climb that we encountered just before lunch on Saturday on trail 45




Doesn't look bad in the pics, but here is a video from the same spot.

I will have to touch up my MC fender flares with the black rustolium but no real damage that i have seen.  

I unseated a tire bead on the first ledge of many on 52 and used a technique I saw Scott use with the CO2 and it worked great!  Glad we were able to get everyone out saturday night and I really enjoyed leading the beginner group around Saturday, yall did great and cant wait to see you guys at the next ride...It was pure luck y'all didn't follow us and decided to head out!!!
