    I would call it the carolina meet...but some folks from PA, DC, and Jersey invaded....

    Anyways...pics coming shortly...

    Enjoyed meeting everyone...had a great time all in all...

    MANY thanks to everyone who helped me out with my alternator problem (including Chris4x4)...

    After finally deciding that it was the alternator...we journeyed to 3 different auto parts stores...finally found one at a Vatozone...snatched it up...got it back...put it in...truck still wasnt right...revved the engine a bit...and POP...belt breaks...BACK to the store...finally got all that shit straight...and wrestled all the belts back on and in place...put skids back on...and its finally fixed...drove it 2.5 hours home with no issues...

    4 years of wheeling trips and on my last one...my truck decides it hates me :rolleyes:

    Not so much. After pulling out and power washing my alternator and getting it back in i still have a battery light and we had to stop on the side of the road and recharge my battery with jumper cables 4 times on the way home. Autozone didn't know how what to do with it cause it was to new. They couldn't even test it. Gonna call the dealership tomorrow and if it's warrantied it should be good. Otherwise I might be callin ya for a high output replacement.

    Besides that it was an awesome weekend. I'm tired as hell. So's the pup. Haven't even emptied truck yet.

    Only found 1 tick on me when I got home.
