7 am my house.
Bring a waterproof jacket in case we see thunderstorms while on the trail. I'm not bringing my uppers.

I'll also get a sandwich at the store for lunch.

Hopefully each JK, and especially each JKU has a sector shaft brace installed!

I am not bringing my welder.

We're back home.

We were on the trail at 10 and off by 515. We saw a total of one rig on the trail today, plus three side by sides and a drone.
Justin suffered some minor body damage. Chris lost a tire. I slashed a tire too that required a plug, but we drove out on it.

It was in the low 70s on the trail. No Mosquitos to bother us, and we had plenty of water.

4 rigs. 9 people total.

We made it back. No wrong turns! We had a great time, plus I get to work on and buy some new parts for my Jeep again! Thanks Brad (and Greg) for leading the way. What a great trail and such a beautiful day. Suffered some fender and body damage due to lack of clearance for my tires and a healthy dose of operator error. I'll post pics of the carnage soon.

I can't believe I had to miss all that, I had a retirement party for one of our engineers that had to attend. That sounded hella fun. I was at Prarie City today trying some stuff out after I got done with my transfer case again and my rear end. I'm ready to go!!!

Well, I haven't figured out how to upload pics in a post. I noticed today that my passenger rear shackle is completely folded. Just imagine a capital A. Now imagine the legs of that A folded 90 degrees to the left. The driver's side is not as bad. I think they were made of made of balsa, tin foil, or bologna. For some reason, my passenger side took ALL the damage.

Just an FYI. In the gallery section under 2011-07-18 Rubicon Trail, it shows one obstacle in old sleuce that we bypassed.

If you click on "How To" in the main menu there are instructions for uploading to the gallery.
