Chris in Little Sluice. Chris was having steering issues from the start and after blowing a bead he was exhausted. I think he took the winch because he was done and wanted out.

John "Tattoo" in Little Sluice. John put on a good show. What else would you expect for him. He took it a little to hard and landed in the hole at what sounded like 4000 rmp. When he went into the hole that tire stopped and the other three kept on spinning. He broke the hub pins and the drive flange. He wheeled the rest of the weekend in three wheel drive and still hit all the hard lines.

I have to build a new passenger door. Chris broke out the camera and I took a stupid line and refused a spot. "I HAD THE LINE"

Had a blast on the Rubithon. It rained in us Saturday night. No big deal. The new T-G 5" front springs ROCK. Soft with lots of flex. I maxed out my 14" shocks. I also put the T-G Pitman Arm on for this trip. That thing is huge. I use to carry a spare not any more I'm not worried about breaking it. I have a few thing to do to the 4Runner before I go out. But for the most part everything is in working order.

We had a lot of fun on the trial run. I didn't break anything. I'm sure Locktup will say thats because I drive like a girl. But I still have fun. The Trail-Gear springs are working great. They are the 4" front and rear. I have had them on for six months. Locktup and a few of use are going back up to the Rubicon in two weeks for more camping and wheeling.

Looks like everyone had a great time. One of these days, we are going to make the trek down. When we do, some of you guys will have to show us around.

Thanks,

I painted it in March. It was green, brown, black primer and a black exo.
Yes I am still running the rear coils. I was going to link the front but I have the T-G 5" front springs on it now and they are working great.

Luie was going to paint it but I couldn't get the time to haul it down there. Plus I did some trade work with some local clown. I don't know about the seat belts. I still cram mine kids into there car seats.
