Alright guys I know somebody has to fix some stuff on their rig, so how does Saturday sound for a work day (Travis)? Tommy is supposed to talk with Steve about a 47 run on Sunday and if that falls through we can always do Alto. New guys, this is a perfect opportunity to get your windshield banner! :gigem:

First figure out these two questions:

Does any axle shafts spin?
Does the Drive shaft spin?

If a trip to Alto pans out I could tow simeone if you have a trailer. If no tow needed I will just load up a 4# Wheeler and meet y'all out there. If its a 47 run I would just like to get a trail seat.

I'm still down to watch other people break their ****. I don't have a rig so sunday I'd need a trail seat if I went.

Stop being a douche. I just got his number. I told you yesterday that I was working on it. I lost all of my numbers when I had to reset my phone. For the love of god you're like a woman.

02-12-2011, 10:39 PM
Okay any more takers for a run tomorrow? As of right now we don't have enough rigs to make it a worthwhile run.

Sam, get the pictures and video up or email them to me so I can do it.

Nobody else wants to wheel? Steve said to come out at two but if there's no interest then we may scrap the run.

Tyler Cross and I went out there. Overall it was a good day. His CJ performed well although his carbureted 350 had problems with a few of the hills. We followed Steve around, who was riding shotgun in the Explorer. Had a good time out there, place was packed but we only ran into other rigs once.

sweet, I had too much to do to go out. I ended up making it a 2 day work weekend. Installed the other side molly shaft and worked on the brakes some.

I thought it was a pretty good trip. Definitly need a carb solution. It just takes me a little longer and a little more skinny pedal than the fuel injection guys. :mad:
