Kyle, your jeep makes me laugh, it was spotless the first time i saw it a few months ago.  Now it looks like it has some dents and scratches.  Good to see you are enjoying the hobby  ;D

haha...thanks.


that was my first battle wound...I got it at fawl crawl. I asked will, "do you think I can make this trail?" wills response, "sure." His winch cable came out a few minutes later

Yes, the hole what made me look like an idiot.  Jimmy, what ujoint did you break?  I am worried that i am going to break a lot of them with my 30.

I broke the passenger side u-joint in the 30. Well, the u-joint didn't actually break, but one of the caps cracked and started to back out of the shaft. Fortunately, Richard noticed it before it fell out or else it probably would have taken out the joint and the inner and outer shaft. Will and I have both lost a u-joint on both driver and passenger side now. 3 out of the 4 times it has damaged the shafts as well. So ya, it'll probably happen, lol.

I am jealous as usuall.

Either Mike has gotten tall or skinny or someone has stretched and painted there jeep to look like a JK.

Look like a sloppy day of fun. Kyle got you some new kicks I see.

Richard did you get some RR revenge?

A small tack weld on those caps will keep them from killing the shafts.

I rode several trail the truck only cut off once. It was a blast and the only damage I have is a broken tail light and more rocker damage. I am starting to like my truck ;D

Awesome time guys! as always. The meal on Saturday night was great. A 100 pound hog, 6 turkeys, potato salad, and baked beans were on the menu.

The guys from Wilson's 4x4 are super guys! They paid for all of the food and also put on a crazy raffle. They must have given away thousands of dollars of stuff; high lift jacks, a lift kit, shirts, gift certificates. Mike won a $50 gift certificate to Wilson's and a shirt. I won a set of grab handles and a set of roll bar padding. 

Today Mike let me take the JK up the nasty rock garden at the tail end of Tiger Pit that moves up towards the shop. Steve broke out the red TJ and showed Mike how to use the skinny pedal  ;D  And Mike got to drive Steve's TJ for awhile too. Can't wait to do it again!

Thanks again for everyone who came out and made this another awesome weekend of wheeling!

Seems I should have gotten back down there today, but I did finish repairs on the XJ today. Sounds like yall had a blast.

Just got home and all I can say is, Wow, what a great weekend. It was dry all weekend, but really cold at night. We stayed toasty in the camper though. I met a lot of really cool people. Everybody was super friendly and we spent some late nights by the fire telling lies and laughing our tails off.

We need to schedule a ride to coincide with their event next year. Dan, the owner of Wilson's 4x4 really wants us to and I think it would be a blast. It will be the same time. They always have it the week before Thanksgiving.

Steve's red TJ is a beast. I got to drive it today and now I'm ready to sell the JK and built a for real rock buggy. It might take a few days to shake that one off, but it was a lot of fun. I also rode with Steve on some crazy stuff and lets just say he ain't scared to hammer that 350 down.

Ben and Will did a great job driving my Jeep. Now the secret's gonna get out. It ain't got nothing to do with me. It's all Jeep.  {toast}

I only took about 10 pictures all weekend. I'll post them up tomorrow. Thanks for everybody that came out.
