    And what did you do with your exhaust? Cut it off above the axle?

    I dig it.

    My Moab trip was more sightseeing with a buddy and his family. Did Fins n Things, part of Canyonlands via Shafer Road, then Arches out to Thompson Springs. The scenery never gets old out there.
    Thanks to @Littles for trail advice.

    The new front end worked well until mile 8 on Fins and Things until I hit a rock with the driver front at about 7mph that stopped me flat. Total bonehead move as I didn't see it at all. Wheel spun out of my hands to full lock in less than a second and created a tow outwards on that tire. Inspected tie rod, LCA's, BJ's, TC gussets everything I could and it looked okay. Get back in and Power Steering capability is GONE and wheel is 5 and 11 o'clock to go straight. That was super fun making turns on Fins and Things with a jacked up front end in a DCLB. Make it back to camp, jack it up and tinker with the tie rod. Tire looks better now but power steering is just gone. Yesterday in Arches hit a small bump, here a clank and now I am at 10 and 4 o'clock. Jack it up and ensure everything is tight and it is. Slowly creep back home and now doing research on my symptoms on what the hell I busted. My 'guess' is the steering rack since that is the side I hit the rock on.

    Im guilty of not taking very many pictures. There were several I wanted to get, I just never seemed to do it. I took a small handful of videos that I will work on getting out this week.
