    Drag link bent from locked steering

    I am truly amazed that it bent after 237,000 miles of severe service (well prolly should take off the ~ 50k when it belonged to the dentist). Anybody that ever asks me what 4x4 to buy - I tell them, buy an 80 series because I am pretty sure i would have broken everything else into a million...

    Drag link bent from locked steering

    It felt locked. And I was pretty much moving straight, and then had to turn to the left. That is when I could not turn. We stopped, but may have not noticed the bend yet.

    2007 Rubithon photos and stories

    I love showing all the 'un-off-road educated' co-workers the 80 series pictures on the rubicon. A little touch of reality for them because they have been in the misbelief that only Humvees can go off-road :) LMAO.

    "I think what gives this trail it's reputation is not the obstacles but the length of the trail and the constant attention needed to complete it successfully. I would compare it to a Marathon." --> ? hence the name Rubithon :) this photo is our AM meeting with marlin for the sweeper run

    Rubithon - This aint no Jamboree Baby!

    The best Peter quote is still when he cathes up with me going up Cadillack Hil and says: "Are You Mickey Rubicon? - In Germany we all thought you were just a drunken poser!" - Priceless! :)
