Sounds like we need a group fab day somewhere

 

I’m all for that. I know @B.Root always has some shit that need done too.

 

Nevermind, Im sitting it out. Fighting the flu or something the past couple days. Very bummed about it. Next time!

 

just getting into my throttle issue now. Also 99% out

 

Booo to both of you! Hope you get to feeling better soon Adam! Allergies are in full swing for me, but Eff it. I’m still going. I’ll sit in the truck with the windows up and A/C on lol

 

If it makes you feel better
I have 6 days to decide to pull my motor or wait another 30 days to do it

 

Hey new here! I’m in NKY over by NKU in Wilder. ‍♂️

 

Last time I pulled a motor it took less than 2 hours lol, but the main tool I used was a sawzall

welcome!

 

The motor is in SA

 

thank you!

sounds like an interesting engine removal…

 

well I'm laid up hard with the covid, probably a good thing I didn't get out to RRG this weekend

 

You missed out. I grenaded a cv axle and wheel bearing. It was a good time

 

AND wheelbearing?

how

 

Dang dude

you had to go off-road to do that?

I broke both and the truck has been parked

 

Pretty long story. Spotter sucked, bad line, couldn’t see shit and my rear locker isn’t currently working (abs wire broken somewhere). The axle broke where it goes through the bearing, not at a joint like they normally do… tried to limp it back to camp and the bearing left the chat on the way back. Luckily I was going very slow. Pulled over on the side of highway 11 and went and got an axle and bearing assembly. Put it together and kept going.

 

Sounds like a terrible time. Sucks

 

The rest of the trip was good though

 

Who doesn’t like some pictures

 

Looks like a good time minus the whole CV/WB.

 

For anyone interested May 12-14 we will be down there again. There’s a big Back the Byway event you can sign up for to do the guided rides. But a group of us are just gonna do our own thing. Some the the “guides” suck.
