I would have loved to seen the view from behind me going down the paved road with a flat 44 bogger at each corner. it felt like it was going down the road sideways.

priceless !


We also learned that "Hot Chicks" is not a phrase known to many in Cold Iron. And I'm still trying to figure out what bubba said, over and over and over .....

Yeah, every person, points and says "you know you got a flat?" I just started flipping people off... jk.

And yes, the people of Cold Iron are definitely different... few teeth. Most of them wear pajama pants, all the time, and just cruise around the quickie mart on their quads... it was a dream afternoon.

and yes, odd to me that while we were stuck on the actual road, in a blind turn, hood up, pacing searching for cell signal, not one person pulling a rig even slowed down...

And this surprised the hell out of me... Only guy that stopped was a local boy. Coal miner / logger, saw we needed help, stripped down and put his coveralls on and did everything he could to try to get us back on the road again. Just kept saying "well i can't just leave you here on the road, we're gonna get you going somehows."

Did everything we knew to do, but the truck was a zero. I was super appreciative of this guys tho, truly a selfless guy. Now i didn't know any of the ****ers that blew by my at 50 mph, but still.... I wold have stopped to at least see of we needed some tools, or a cell phone, something...

Kirby did it, had to winch a few times, so i decided against it, since i have no winch.

And don't be a motor fag... i think yer beyond that.

it's under warranty, so i hope it's completely wasted...

It sounds like every valve is bent and coming out of the motor... like a cummins kinda. so it sounds kinda cool, but it's not supposed to sound that way...

glad you made it back okay last night man...

The trip was a blast.

I learned that my rear 1350cv shaft is not quite up to the task when im in the driver seat

I learned that I can't stop very fast when going 40+mph going into a switchback down a greasy hill. That poor YJ almost had a big pitbull pattern on its hood :o

I learned that mom jokes are still funny, especially when carwash puts a 4" gash in his sidewall

good times.

hoping it is just a sensor or fuel delivery problem.

Yeah, we discussed possibilities for a while, (we had some free time). Decided it was probably just a bad sensor or a fuel issue... time will tell.

and Kirby, i think that rock garden at the field there was just too bad ass for your little rig. hell Timmy made it further than you in it i think...

He's got fully warranty from 4wp. But I'm glad you mentioned that...because its only a matter of time before I gash mine, or open up the ones that are already in them.

Carwash, I was laying off the throttle a little this weekend, it was the first time wheelin for my cousin...didn't wanna scare him too bad. :)

I know...I was kidding about the throttle. In all honesty, I was nervous someone would come around a blind corner and I would run off the mountain or into them (kinda like what almost happened). I was damn surprised you were able to keep up though...your pinion brakes were NOT happy.

good meeting everyone that we did. i didn't try to run **** all weekend, too damn muddy. we tried big perm (whatever its called now) friday morning first thing, got wedged in the v notch, jeep slammed to the side and died. ended up being somehow the wires on the CPS sheared, so after about an hour of widdling with a dull knife and small hack saw on the magnet, we got enough wire exposed in it to get it back together and running, when i went to move, we discovered i had also broke an upper link, replaced with a spare bushing i had and were back on the trail. i figured with the CPS living on borrowed time now, i just wasn't going ot risk it hte rest of the weekend, i had a good time just trailriding watching everyone else tear **** up.
on saturday around noon, all my bolts on my orbital mount came loose, and my orbital fell off my steering shaft, could have been ugly had the cliff been on the other side of the curve we were going around. also have a ujoint cap in my passenger side axle about ready to pop out from being dried up. had a blast though, and cant wait to get back. it was just too damned wet again this year. i think all the real trails i ran all weekend were pinball, bigperm, railbed, lower rock garden (let my brother drive it, he's never been wheeling before), and killing time.

buckeyezuk, your zuk amazed me, as did yours humpy, carwash, your rig is badass, saw kirby fly by at about 90 on saturday, figured on your way up to white tail, damned does that thing sound mean as **** when your in teh throttle.

greg

Just warrantied my tires, it was the most painless thing i ever went through...

I send them a band of tread including the DOT numbers, that's all.

My tires shipped today and i should see them by Friday.

Now if my truck repair goes this easy, I will be surprised....
