T case is going back in tonight. Gotta build a new rear d shaft, and fix a leaky ps hose. Then I should be ready. Jimmy is coming over Saturday so we can fix his tow rig. When do you get your t case back?

[beer_goggles_009]

Should get the T-case back tomorrow, and get it back in the Jeep this weekend.

then I will only have the front diff rebuild left to be ready.

[beer_goggles_009]

Great to hear Mark. I saw your buggy today when I was at Sunfire. Looks like it is finished. Can't wait to see it on the trails again.

I'd really like to go on this run. I need to see what I can work out with work.

[Billy Boy]

I'll be making the trip.

[93 Krawler]

I'll be making the trip.

Sweet!! :thumbup: I promise we will take the actual road this time. :laughing:

Me and Mark are leaving Thursday at 5pm. Jim and Dustin will try to do the same. Can you and Ben roll out Thursday with us?

The actual road will be greatly welcomed! :whew!:

I have Friday off work, so I can probably head out on Thursday. Ben actually isn't going this time, but I will have a passenger. I'm not sure what time my passenger will be getting off work just yet though...it might be a day-of decision.

Well that sucks. No cool messin with a mans wheelin... Maybe next time.

I figured we would camp in the same place as last time. See you there Bill. :thumbup:

[Billy Boy]

Absolutely. I'll send you a PM with my phone number. Is Timmy going to make it?

[bbtank45]

With the enormous size of that place, you may be alright even though the jamboree is going on.

[93 Krawler]

I guess we get to see what it's like there during an event. At least the event is held at the trail head and event area. The campground will most likely be packed though. Who picked this weekend? :thinking:

[bbtank45]

Lol. I just bought a brand new 22ft enclosed and sure enuff on windrocks site it says no enclosed trailers in primitive camp sites. :thumbup: :rotf: :crying:

what did you do with your deck over trailer?:smug:

[bbtank45]

Keep me and billy in mind if you want to part with the gooseneck :thumbup:

[93 Krawler]

Since they don't allow enclosed trailers in the primitive camping, me and Mark are going to reserve 2 rv spots. We'll just have to commute to where you guys camp at.

[Runoveru2]

So would they allow my box truck in tent camping area? I won't be able to make this trip but was just wondering how this will work in the future.

They didn't say anything to me last year when I had mine parked in primitive.

[bc35339]

We were asked to move our popup a couple weeks ago. We had it set up in the circle around the shower house on the right toward the back and we had to move it. The reason for the rule is due to someone dumping their black water/gray water on the camp site and the next guy shows up trying to set his tent up where it was dumped. We did not have a sink,shower or toilet in our popup but they assume anything that you stay in could have one of the three.

[93 Krawler]

A 30 second inspection would fix that. Doesn't take that long to see and empty trailer has nothing...

They made me rent an RV site for my 19' enclosed. I wasn't happy.

[Billy Boy]

I am very disappointed to say that I won't be making this run after all. I have a layout to attend Friday evening and a funeral Saturday morning. Have fun without me - I'd much rather be wheeling with you all this weekend.

That sucks. Maybe next year. You coming out on the CORE tour with us this year?

[Billy Boy]

Absolutely next year. I'm looking forward to getting out. I guess I'll have to get more details on the CORE tour. I'm sure I can find a thread on it somewhere...

Done.

[93 Krawler]

Off to Windrock... :thumbup:

[WrenchMonkey]

Have fun, take pics!

[93 Krawler]

Weather was great, but that's the best part... Had to camp on a hill, which made sleeping rough.

Jim broke his transfer case on the first obstacle.
7810

I broke my transfer case pulling Jim back to camp. I twisted the splines on my drive shaft and hit a rut and that jammed the shaft through the case. Mark pulled Jim back to camp. I was able to drive mine back to camp, it just made a lot of noise. I found another t case at a junk yard 40 mins away, came back a put it in only to find out that the front d shaft was seized. At that point I was 2 wheeling it the rest of the weekend.
7811
7812

Went back out to rattle rock so Mark could have some fun. He was almost to the end when his gas pedal broke and got wedged behind the brake pedal. The harder he hit the brakes, the more gas he gave it. Luckily he hit the kill switch before he went flying too far in reverse.
7813

Me and Mark went back out after fixing his pedal and hit a few of the closer obstacles that didn't require me to go in. That's about it. Lots of carnage and very little wheeling.

[Drivermod]

Yikes! That's a bummer. Went to Harlan the week before. I didn't have any major issues but Todd decided to hit Creampuff right off the trailer. He was over the top when his front transfercase yoke broke which lead to multiple other failures. Didn't have enough parts to fix all the carnage so he turned around and headed home. Luckily Jake Burkey and his gang from South Carolina were kind enough to let us hang with them all weekend. Hate to hear you guys had so much carnage. I guess that'll happen from time to time.

[WrenchMonkey]

Damn, I don't know if that's better or worse than Tony and Hodgie. Guess it took them ten hours to get down there, they got rained on for 36, then drove back home.

At least you wheeled (a little) but it was expensive...

We had awesome wheeling weather, just bad luck. The campground was packed. I don't think there was an empty spot there. There were SXS's and atv's everywhere. There were millions of dollars of toys rolling around. The SXS following is crazy big.
