Wish I was there
Sucks to miss an event, don't see how you regular "miss an event" guys handle it, its tearing me up

Richard stopped by the house on the way home and said it was a good day of wheeling. Finally got his raffle winnings to him.
Glad to hear everything is going good Tony.

Glad to hear everything came out ok Tony. Now you have the 2.0 mod.
The badlands was not kind to me this weekend!! First i broke the shift linkage on my duals on the first obsticle of the day in the quarry. Blew a tire off the bead (not really a big deal ) Tore up my pax side even more. Now for the duzy, so my truck was stuck in 4.7:1 due to the above shift linkage failure, so to get home i had to shift the case back into hi range and the only way i could get to it was with a crow bar and a hammer. So i smacked it back in to hi range and went on my way. Well the truck was making kind of a metallic griding sound almost like its not fully in gear but the truck was driving fine so i said F it and kept on driving. The case was running hot the whole way home, then again it was all day. Got home tossed it in the garage, and later in the evening poked my hed under the truck and notice the entire underside coated in gear lube and a 2inch round puddle under the truck. Today i was going to change the fluid so i removed the drain plug from the lefty and found a pile of metal shavings and half the c clip from what i think is the lo range shift rail. Drained the crawler and found a bunch more metal shavings. SO tomorrow morning before work im going to drop the crawler and lefty and this week tear it apart. Best case scenario is replace the c clip, clean out the case, find a wore down shift collar, and move on. Worst case i fugged evreything up due to metal in the cases. Aside from the noise and heat the truck drove fine the whole way home, and im damn lucky that c clip didnt get stuck in a bearing or lock the case/crawler up on 41. I would have had to call the campers to come rescue me!!!
That sucks! Do you need a driver? I have a Camry not doing much right now.
I wonder what happened? maybe forcing it into gear?
One of my favorite weekends this year!!
PERFECT weather, good group, good wheeling, the truck worked great....
Plus the TREC race was Saturday as well as the KOH qualifier, so there was lots of buggy porn!!!!

We discussed getting one of Dayreals more "high mileage" blow up dolls and drawing a "4" on the shoulder, an elephant and tiger on the other, calvin and hobbes on the leg, cargo shorts, a wife beater, and flip flops....and setting it up around the fire during the fire, and in my tent after the fire.
What a great weekend, one of the best this year. Only thing missing was a blowup Tony doll.
