Goebs is lurking here! Trying to see if I can get north still this weekend. I was hoping to get up but have a closing Friday so might be impossible. If the red thing is going to be close, that might spur me further. If it isn't making the trip either way, I won't get divorced over the trip and head up later!
Where are you stayin Woody?

Keer is out right now, when she gets home I'll start the talk. Guessing I am out and don't want to complicate things for you at all/ No hurry on the cruiser delivery. I just saw that you were going to be close and hoped I could play.
Armstrong Creek sounds familiar but no idea why. If I head up, you know you have a room. Thinking it won't happen but going to try at the home front. I checked with 'rents and the cabin is empty this weekend. Would just need to get the caretaker to crank up some heat. I need to let him know soon as well cause it takes a couple days to warm the crib up..
I am off to see how badly you beat that 40 now.

Woody,
Found it. Ouch. Guessing the abuse from the winter ride at the Badlands took some life out of it. Hopefully you had some fun prior to the break. Been there done that!

I can only imagine how close mine is to exploding!
I am out for this weekend. The conversation went the wrong direction. Kids soccer tournaments x2 and a family party saturday eve.
Stay warm and have fun. Some day I will find where the 40 is and wheel it. 'Til then, it is all yours!

given my breakage on my own rig AND the fact that I broke Texican's, yours is only safe on the trailer....

I'm convinced that Goebs is a figment of Woody's imagination. Woody uses the username and persona to hoard a perfectly nice 40 series. He talks himself out of thrashing it by saying it really isn't his. Until this Goebs character has a face and joins us on a trip I will maintain this perspective.

Whether or not Goeb's is Woody's sock puppet or alter ego is an interesting theory. I think a case of Heinie's will settle the debate!

With a bit more notice.I will make a trip soon. Considering that red 40 on his trailer needs a good beating, I will try to find time. Keep in mind, I am a F.I.B.
I just play in Wisconsin as often as I can. Wabeno is my home away from home.
We will meet and yes to the case of Heinikens.....
Goebs

Still quiet in here. Woody's killing his wallet and mind on the 40, My 62 needs dual batts, possibly a bigger alt and some new wiring. I want a different rear locker, my trans is acting up again. I certainly could have used more power this past weekend but don't even want to start that mess. I'm thinking next winter 350, 700, and some sort of case with nice gear options. Haven't figured out what to do with the rear end yet.
Anybody else doing anything remotely regarding wheeling?

Woody is fed up with the 40 and gave up. He is selling Gretchen and I'm buying he HZJ70 tomorrow. He is closing down IH8MUD and taking up art collecting and traveling in Europe via train and foot.
Just bored at work really. Have a great day.

If that's the case I'm buying Gretchen, boy I love that truck!!!
Woody wouldn't know what to do with himself if that was the case Hank!

Gretchen looks really sad with one broken foot sinking in the mud, almost looks abandon poor girl. I'd be willing to adopt her and give her a good home

if I'd had the key for the fence, I would have  (it was in the DMax)
hope to call Jon today and get 'er dropped here to start working on....some parts have arrived, more are enroute still...'should' be an easy fix, but need to diagnose a few things to be sure I've ordered all the stuff I need.
Dan, you've got junkyard contacts, find me spare front axle shafts/birfields from the 1995-97 stuff
