dropped it off today at a LC members shop NE of me. he's getting it tuned in correctly since i could never find out what my problem was and i think i'm going to go ahead and have him fab up a traction bar while its in there so i minimize risk of breaking anything in the rear drive line on my next trip out as i'm not holding back. Plan to scare the crap out of my dad if he makes it up here for the trip

also need to talk some numbers for my next phase of mods to get it close to where i want it before the summer.

bought a new hi-lift and gave a friend my old tractor supply knock off and ordered a fourtek hi-lift mount to bolt it to a cross bar on the cage, not too happy about the price, but i couldn't find anything that wasn't a u-bolt and crappy bracket.

Took it out to barnwell mountain a couple weeks back, had a great time. Never needed a winch and i was the most under-built out of the group. I definitely did struggle, so I Ordered an Orion t-case and an Aussie locker for the rear this past weekend

Not too many pictures of me unfortunately.

Got some body damage off this drop off, passenger side rear quarter nailed a rock when the back wheels dropped back to earth

Just got back from hidden falls late saturday night, was a good trip.

Broke it friday night unfortunately. Took about 3 hours to get it off the trail, finally just dragged it from the rear out. Parts should be here in the next couple days to fix it hopefully.



Wheelie!
