I saw Tony and Scott up there.  I was going to leave and then come back but the line of traffic on 53 was backed up for miles so just headed home around 11:30.  Took my boy Moose.  First really long ride for him but he did great. 

There wasn't much to do after a couple hours at the home base.  There weren't any crazy deals going on but talked to a few vendors.  I bought a Bartact console cover and flashlight holder.  Great stuff.  Only $20 off to order the seat covers so I'll just wait.  Talked to Crawler Concepts about full side armor (rear corners, rocker, rock sliders, and fenders).  The price was about the same as Metal Cloak.  Poison Spyder doesn't have corners for a 2 door until next year - same with ACE.

Moose is a good lookin dog! We got there around 11:30 and left around 2:30. Came in the back way and traffic was light. Ordered some Bartact Front seat covers to replace my Coverkings. Was good to talk to those guys and know I'm supporting an American company and American Made Products. I also spoke with Crawler Concepts, I am interested in their tailgate spare tire arm. and a stream lined rear bumper. Saw some friends had lunch came home to watch Georgia. And now watching the Tide. Good games today.

This guy had a bad day



Sketchy on the jacks! Looks like a strong breeze would push it over. C clip 35?  Tj? Jk? Was the diff open too? Somebody under that?
Dang the stinger!

The paint job and snorkel are indicative as well.

Yes. He was on the hunt to find an axle shaft.

The diff cover was off for several hours. I'm sure it was full of bearing loving dust. It had a Dana 35 in it.
Hit some trails with Kevin on Friday. My daughter hit the obstacle course & trails on Saturday. My wife needed some Captain Morgan for inspiration. This was the first time  we have ever went back on Sunday & we had a blast. No alcohol needed for the wife.
We hit a few trails & then the obstacle course. The wife was freaking out on the homebase trails. But she had fun. Told here she was gonna have to drive on at least 2 obstacles next year. And she said sure. I asked if she was ready to go back to AOP & she said yes.

I rode by Jeep Fest today on the Harley and it was all but abandoned.  A few rigs were there which looked like someone had to come back with a trailer for them.
