Uwharrie National Forest " URE " permanent thread

unfortunately since they've filled it in the redneckary has been to a minimum... Only one person I know now could submarine their truck in it.

 

I cant find the "ukranian redneckery" mud hole video we got that day the dude blasted it and exited through the sunroof I think......

 

You talking about the one that sank it for a xmas card with the fam on the roof, then drove it out?

 

yes yes, that guy

 

no vid, quick ukranian search found it

 

More pics of her

 

Well I've been working on the girlfriends jeeps trying to get something ready for the trail since I don't take my stock taco out there.

Her actual trail jeep has been on "blocks" for months now. The front coilovers have been at FOA to get rebuilt this whole summer. I sent them in with replacement gaskets and seals but Unfortunately the shock body/core needed replacing as well on one of them. Waited along time for them to get material in so they could machine a new one (supply chain issues). Finally they got that stuff in and now we gotta wait until SEMA is over apparently. Crazy


In the meantime I started checking out her other jeep since we are finally getting into nicer weather and don't want to miss anymore of fall URE. I don't know what happened here (squirrels maybe?) But I've been working on replacing hoses and such on the EVAP system



Hopefully that fixes it and gets the CEL back off...
Next is fluids and hopefully we can make it out there soon! As in this year!



Just blowing off steam, rant over
Uuuggghhh jeeps hahaha

 

Squirrels around my house eat almost anything plastic.. I don't get it.

 

They must have liked that little area or those certain plastic hoses. Everything else looked untouched. Once I saw that on her jeep I went straight to my truck to double check everything to make sure the taco wasn't molested. Who knows, these cats will stay on top of it hopefully

 

I had a squirrel chew through the cable to my horn about two weeks after I bought my car but that was in Indiana. I'm surprised with how many squirrels I don't see in NC compared to IN. I actually get surprised when I see a squirrel now. like oh a squirrel, don't see those every day.

 

Come on over, those little critters terrorize my “yard”. Pretty sure they throw nuts at us.

 

I’ve got a 22LR Bolt gun with suppressor. Tell me when. No one will ever know

The squirrels are massive down here, could probably make that recipe with only 2 squirrels.

 

2 squirrels in my yard will sound like a herd of deer, the deer are much quieter! Any day I can look out and see 4 or 5

 

You must live in downtown or one of these new popup neighborhoods that they clear cut to put the houses in.

 

I did when I first moved down here but my backyard was wooded. I now also have 12 acres of woods and even when I go out there I don't see too many squirrels. I've seen more turkey than squirrel.

 

Wildlife Trade?

 

checked my trail cam and I think I bought a turkey farm lol. I might be able to spare one, had seven of them in a group. Saw two more while I was there hunting deer. I did see about 4 squirrels tho.

 

Well, FOA took their sweet ass time rebuilding these but finally got them back today! I guess it needed more than just new seals and gaskets. It needed a new shaft so we waited months for them to get the material they needed to machine a new one. Supply chain sucks right now

Anyways plans for URE next week hopefully!



New hoses and resevior too.
Less than $200 for everything including rebuild kit (except $100 in shipping)



Time to get this back together finally!
