worst comes to worse, I have spring break week in March off too. IIRC it's the 11th-20th I'm available.

I'm having trouble with finding a shift trade. this time of year is tough.
 
Well, don't matter much now. I have a cracked frame at the panhard/gear box mount. This rig ain't wheeling anymore. Doing hardcore stuff would definitely bust the mount and make my life miserable.

More than likely drive up in my Honda and ride with folks on Weds.

This group is always more party/meeting and less wheeling. I bet I could get more action if I set up a lunch date somewhere.

Holy tantrum batman!

Edit: likely a joke gone wrong, sorry G...

You need 30sec with a welder... Good to go!

Um. No.

Im not about half assing things like cracked frames and superstructures. You are welcome to on your rig when you actually wheel it.

lol, easy turbo, pump the brakes... i was half kidding. although a good penetration weld bridging the crack across both sides, ground flat and a bracing plate welded on too would be all you can hope for... so that should take like 30mins... :flipoff2:
 
holy cow, that looks bad Beno. You may have other cracks that haven't made themselves known yet. Sure you don't want to swap your stuff over to another 80 frame that hasn't been rolled and salt attacked?
 
I'm in.

CDan was nice enough to give me Weds off. So I plan on coming up with the Stayner's in my Honda. I will either walk the trail or ride along with someone.

Graham....I'll give you a call tomorrow to get plans rolling.

If any one from the ABQ area is going up to Farmington, let's get together on departure times, etc.
 
Stayner update: we've left the Hammers headed to Flagstaff for the evening. The pig sustained only moderate damage (everything that sticks out on the left side is now gone), but what else is new. Can't wait to see everyone soon.
 
Weather is looking great, no new moisture, things have been in the upper 40's and plans to stay that way for the rest of the week. If I can get out today I'll check on if the slop dried up.

Snowmobiling yesterday was spring conditions.
 
cool, let me know. I have to work tomorrow (Wed) and so get home after 10am Thurs. honestly not too excited about the cold and possible muddy conditions for rock crawling. I'll see what Graham says about the conditions.
 
Conditions look good, balmy upper 40's, beautiful out today, just picked up my buggy, its on.
 
Sorrry Ige,

No money shots at the hammers, pretty benign run. Maybe Farmington will have something else to offer. Maybe you need to come by to spot.
