    I picked it up from Auto Value in airdrie Addison! I'm sure the other locations around Yyc would sell it to. I had to buy 3 bottles. The 3rd my spare that I keep in the truck just in case.

    Oo guaranteed that's what happened...And it was a rear RJ60 as well. 39" red label Krawlers vs Slickrock. Slickrock won big time haha. Luckily they had one of the best in the buis with them. By time we finished gold bar rim they had caught back up to us.

    oh a rear even too.

    well i guess if youre going to explode rock crawler parts ejs is the best time huh?


    so...did moab turn you onto crawling any more? I certainly did it for me, and was the deciding factor in how I wanted to build the truck

    Ya, I've always had a vision for the truck. When I decided to do the 35's I knew it was going to stay low and wide. Droop over up travel, that way its stable. It really is the perfect little truck for what I like doing. I think once I do the 5.29's and a locker in the front I'll be good to go. For this year anyways. Next year I'll throw a crawl box in it and be done.

    Plus other goodies this year to haha. I'm working on a cage, and a drivers seat. These stock seats are horrendously uncomfortable.

    Today I finished unpacking all my camping gear. Gave the truck a well needed bath inside and out. Vacuumed all the red sand from the inside. (I shed a tear) haha.

    Damage done from the trip. NONE! well...close to none. Drivers side slider is dented and missing paint from front to back. Passenger side slider is missing all it's paint in the middle portion of it. I caught my rear diff pretty good on the massive rock in the hair pin turn to get to the gatekeeper at area BFE. What a tough little spot. It actually dented the housing. And I'm pretty sure that's where I picked up the dent on the slider as well. Front passenger side corner of the bumper is missing paint from that very same rock pushing me into the car sized boulder right next to it. Nothing a little touch up paint can't fix :)

    And one replaced CV at the campsite from a torn boot. I figured what the hell...I had a spare so why not switch it out for a fresh one. Other than that all body panels are in tact, and I never once hit the rear end of the truck. Bed bob=time well spent.

    Someone's gotta need them for spares! If they don't sell, I have a really cool idea in how to incorporate them into my coffee table :D

    5.29's and ARB up front. Sticking with the Richmond in the rear. That thing impressed the hell out of me in Moab.

    Ever since JKX2012 I've wanted to run holy cross. It looks knarly as fuck. Colorado has some of the knarliest rock around. When we were in Moab, we ran into the fella that owns the "rat rock'd" build on the cover of the CRAWL mag. He said its one of the funnest trails he's ever done. And very scenic to boot.

    This...I want to do!
