Didn't go to work today. Just got the jeep finished and loaded. Headed out soon.
Spool was the wrong size, got a 60 open carrier, welded it up but then relized it was a 30 spline. Now on the hunt for a spool or another open 60 with 35 spline parts.
looks like I'll be headed up tomorrow.

The assist worked great, I just need to redo one line and I should then not have any leaks. I bend the inner part of a rim and once we found a 4 way to get the tire off, it was an easy fix.
We had a pretty good turnout despite several people noticably not there. I did not get a head count. I am very amazed that the A&A lets up keep coming back.:D
The Tator Hill Tavern was much better this year too.:gigem:
I drank alot. Its going to take a week to recover.
Here are a few to get started. I will upload teh rest later. I have a really good picture of Haley, but that should probably not be posted:flipoff2:

Fun Facts:
* 8.5 gallons is not enough gas for the klogger to wheel for 2 days.
* 37" tires + 3.55 axles makes C6 ANGRY!
* Chalk another one up for TTB w/ no breakage!
* The Klogger - It transport people on the road, on the trail, or on the trailer.
had a blast and the scout did great. Hope Jones has a vid of me going up that wall. Was running just fine till the track bar and the frame decided the has "irreconcilable differences" and separated.
Awesome trip, had a blast!
I want to thank all of you guys who stopped on the side of the highway to help when I broke down in route to Clayton thursday night.
Travis, thanks again for the rescue and tow home.:gigem:
Dodgula- shattered clutch and throwout bearing
BarnBurner- 2 bent u-joint u-bolts and shattered front output yoke.

Awesome trip...obviously time for a new clutch in the buggy, but other than that came out unscathed. Even with the "Flip".
Speaking of which, I think someone got the video, I'd like to get a copy of that original. Steven, for your info, Ryan Clarke was driving, I was spotting - last obstacle of the last trail of the trip(Redneck Millionaire), we took a hard line just for the hell of it. I think we made it up further than anyone else did (without a winch), but just couldn't figure out how to get the buggy turned toward the trail exit (probably should have tried a front dig much earlier, in hindsight). Due to some "audience encouragement" we kept trying after we probably should have backed down. Thanks to Busa and Scott's help, we got it righted quickly, and drove it out while Busa's winch continued to hold it upright. It was a bit violent of a flip, so Ryan took quite a jarring and was a little sore, but he was expecting to roll and came out of it smiling. Other than a smallish dent/bend in the roof cage and accelerating an already noticeably worn clutch's demise, it didn't do anything to the buggy. I hope it was entertaining to all :D
p.s. Thanks for trailering, for organizing the WTWE and for buying all that spaghetti we never got a chance to eat, Ed! Thanks for the great fajita's, Chris!
How is the club handling $$$ for both those guys?
I have the video of it Chris. I just have to learn how to put it on the computer and be able to send it.
We saw Kopecki, then John Brown, then Scott and someone else on our way back to Dallas yesterday afternoon. Tried to call Scott to tell him something was falling off the back of the trailer but I guess he's too cool to answer his phone.
I think the waterpump on the ford quit on the way back. Overheats at idle very quickly. Don't think it's the fan clutch. Luckily it still has almost 400 miles and 1 month of warranty left. Fixed the dodge last night.
Tommy and I got the backyard arranged nicely. 2 boats, 2 trailers, and 2 jeeps back there and still easy to get everything in and out.
