John are you headed to the shop and back?
Just need to stabilize the front axle and get the jeep off the mountain tomorrow and back on the trailer.   Then it will go back to Allsouth and we will get it fixed.  The upside is I can do more drinking this weekend.

Did allsouth weld that on?

Was there only one upper mount off a lower?
Yes, just on the passenger side.

It was Wes's keen eyes that spotted the cat and snapped the photo.

Agreed.  Now we just build it stronger.

I did get a couple hours of riding and otherwise it was performing well.

Awesome recovery this morning. Thanks to Danny, Scott, Adam, Clark and Jason for helping me get off the mountain.
We used Scott's chain to pull the axle back and attached my winch to the top front and got it aligned. 
I did suffer carnage working with the chain - chipped my front tooth. That smarts.
The upper mount for the radius arm just tore apart. The weld is in place.

Ended well for what it was. Sorry to hear about your tooth, that sucks.


How are the trails? Don't slop them up too bad for me :)
