'MUD Tour: Beta v0.1 ...starts Oct 6... Hammers - Dusy - 'Con - Fordyce - MORE

[Hank]

have quite a few great photos...saving most for Ben so he can see what's magazine quality...if any....lol

have my vibration narrowed down....D300 front output isn't tight...on hard use, it'll move enough to contact the trans crossmember....

have my new cordless drill charging now so I can finish relocating the trans cooler, then hope to get the d-shafts down and be lucky enuf that it's only a loose pinion nut....not holding my breath tho...

uugh...figgers it's the jeep part that goes bad on mine

I never thought of the obvious WI fix for this issue. Clearance the trans crossmember!

 

[PabloVTA]

you should call it the MUD-a-thon or...The MUDitarod, or the IronMud....

Are you guys on 2M? I'd love to listen in on the play by play.

That's one hell of a West Coast Tour. Can't wait to hear the stories at SNT of the wagering and NSFW topics.

At least he isn't playing around in the backyard with your wife. Never have to worry about woody that way...

Hmm, every time he hits my house Annie is talking about enjoying his spicy sausage...

 

[lowtideride]

F'n woodrow is playing in my back yard and I am not there....

Bastage.

Then his lazy butt does not even fix his own junk!!!

The nerve of some people lol

Bob Last weekend up at High Rock Lake.

Glad it was not the 40, that would have been very moist..

Glad to see the rig scooting around. It looks Macetastic.

I'll have to agree with Annie, He does have good spicy sausage!

Dusey is planned for Saturday thru Monday, then Fordyce next week....then, sadly, I gotta head homeward...

HOWEVER, MUD Tour Beta v0.2 is already in the planning stages....Moab, SEMA, SnT, Hammers, Clayton.....

 

[calstyl2]

Sounds like yer hooked on that Hammers place...........

 

[woody]

well, it IS on the way from SnT to Clayton and our Monday run was well attended this time, so why not?

 

[Eric@Yotamasters]

Glad we could get your (jeep ) tranfercase going Woody. Have a good time on the dusy. Its a fun one!

 

[sbechtold]

Woody you guys should be getting off the trail today. Where's the pics? So how COLD was it? Any snow?

 

[D'Animal]

Woody

If you want to leave you rigs at my place so you don't have to drag it back across the country just to drag it back, you are more than welcome.

 

[Tim Scully]

Holy Dusy,,,, It snowed about and inch and got into the teens. We got about 12 miles in and unfortunately the taranchela spit out a coil over. Broke it at the base, loud noise and clang, bang (noises you don't want to hear 12 miles into a 35 mile trail...). We used two tree savers and the winch to pull everything back together and hold it on the bumpstop! Pics and more story to come!!!!!

 

[sbechtold]

Wow! The tarantula sprained it's ankle. That sucks. I'm sure Don will get things fixed up in no time.

 

[woody]

not just a coilover....the passenger side knuckle let loose too, just before camp that night....FORTUNATELY, the one spare I carry was the correct side for Ron's rig, so between the parts we both had, we got 'er going....in the cold and snow....lol

The thermometer on my tent read 22 when I got up Sunday morning....CHILLY!!

With Ron's damage and the stuff I GOTTA get done to my rig before coming back out in Nov, we opted to quit early and cut our losses...I'm in Lincoln NE right now and should be home tonite....

v0.2 is in planning tho, Moab, SEMA, SnT, Hammers, and either Clayton or BAJA....keep Nov 1 thru the 18th or so open and join us on the trails!



And a BIG thanks to YotaMasters.com!! My D300 is working great, no leaks and shifting better than ever!! A little crossmember clearance work when I get home and it'll be perfect!

considered that, but have quite a bit of work to get done on the 40, including a new front axle....getting great mileage with the DMax and gooseneck tho, keeping speeds under 70 does wonders!

wow you'd think he'd move his precious new castle to the back so it would stay cold and put Rhett up front.
