    ...too much shit to list.
    I can vouch for @tetten's rig capability and the driver.
    I do still have a hard time trusting someone that doesn't drink though.

    DV trip was awesome! Good route planning by @jAndyMendo.

    In case you were referring to that video, it is the John Bull Trail near Big Bear lake in Socal. Grabbed that video from instagram.

    If I do manage to get up to Norcal for a trip I'll contribute to the liquor pool and get sloppy.

    I made some bad choices with the spindle gussets...picked the wrong style of gusset(lack of understanding how much spindles flex under asshole-grade driving) and made some bad choices welding it on(cold welded it and didn't put a bead all the way across the bottom). Looks like anyone who got the ones with gusset on the tie rod connection is good. I think a good inspection prior to any trips would keep everyone out of trouble. I ended up buying new spindles and getting the "The Truck Shop" gussets, if I ever have to replace them for some reason I'm going to go with the TC w/ Sway Bar compatibility. "The Truck Shop" gussets aren't as stout as I was hoping, but they can't be worse than what I did to my original ones.

    the Alex Busta video was actually "Dishpan Springs" and "Holcomb Creek Trails". On Memorial Day I ran "John Bull Trail" with the dude in the SAS. Ended up denting the fuck out of my drive shaft trying keeping up with him and a SAS 4runner, rushed through it so we didn't get much photos or videos. :annoyed:

    I just picked up 2 inner and 2 outer tie rod ends now to source a drive shaft.

    How much were your inners? I think mine are getting a little playful. Gonna order 4... two to replace and two for spares.

    Any carry ujoints? I figure my spare driveshaft helps there, but may pick up a spare ujoint

    How hard are inners to do? Haven't had the pleasure yet

    Anyone have a place they recommend for picking up spare inner/outers?
