Well, made it home safe. Looks like I bent a driver rear shock, have some body damage on the passenger rear door and the rocker where it meets the door. All in all a great weekend. Will post picks later.

CFR 18' - AOP : PICS, VIDEOS, STORIES, LIES.... CARNAGE

Another great Crawling for Reid event!  Thanks everyone who helped some of the out of towners and new guys feel welcome. The Louisiana crew had a great time!

I broke pretty early on Friday, but was a best case scenario. Driver side RCV bit the dust. Snapped right past the splines on the carrier side. RCV is taking care of the replacement and it’s on the way out already. They were also willing to let me take one from Tom’s, but they didn’t have the right one. Clean break, CFR weekend, free...ftw


Huge thank you to Sam, Chase and Clark for helping out with extra hands and company.

Got the jeep home and rear axle pulled out. It’s a little worse than I thought. I already have a full width truss ordered and a bunch of shock mounts and tabs just in case. I will cut this one off this week and should have the other one ready to weld next weekend. I think I got lucky on my coilovers and nothing looks bent. Going to remove the bastard brake caliper guards that caused this whole issue and just keep and extra of calipers with me from now on.

How? Rig sitting on them poor force to twisted or rotating the axle?

Backed up on them and they were stronger than the truss. The main issue with the truss is the “speed holes”. That’s the weak spot for sure. The artec truss will have a piece of tube ran through them and welded solid

So far, about as many times as you've started Pritchett's and not finished it.
