Fall 2022 - CanyonLands - Maze (Routes Set)

Two medics, actually

 

A groover is the toilet! Haha More of a river term but comes from pooping in a 20mil and the lines or “grooves” left on your rear! Sounds like a great trip out there! Have fun!

 

Wait, then who's the second? Your the 1

 

oh god. No, after my combat tours. I am NOT shitting via ammo cans anymore.
I have the bucket and foldable toilet with the bags.

 

I have an extra set of ball joints and an axle, and I'm also an EMT and an Army Combat Lifesaver.

 

Sweet!!
Oh, pack a brake line and the lbj bolts with that. Everytime I've had to fix them on the trail the bolts are always missing or sheared and the brake line is ripped.

Either way. I think we'll be good

 

My plan is to install new ball joints with bolts, new gusseted spindles with new hubs and bearings and new S/S brake lines.
I will pack the old ball joints and old S/S brake lines for trail repairs. I am also packing some extra u-joints and a spare front axle.
I mounted a Front Runner dual jerry can mount on my roof rack for spare fuel. I'll keep my water on the rear swingout.

 

hell ya!

This should be an awesome trip

 

Definitely an awesome trip, incredibly excited!

Yeah, as others have said, this group is extremely prepared. Easily the most prepared group of fellas I have ever traveled with. I too carry a satellite phone, two fire extinguishers, a crapper with bags, the whole nine.

Truck barely surpassed 10,000 miles as well, so little worries in the reliability department.

 

thats why i dont run big tires, which ironically is why i dont qualify for the vehicle requirements

 

Same...perfectly happy with my current tire size, with no plans to change it.

 

Are you running a 265 75 16? That's actually a really good all around tire size in my opinion. With good armor and picking good lines you can go just about anywhere.

 

Yes on the Taco. I'm happy with them, its my traveling rig so it stays a pretty mellow build on purpose

 

That's what I run...hasn't held me back yet

 

Nothing of any importance for this upcoming trip, but @Sixthelement is off to pick up his GFC, which is building my excitement for this trip. So, I decided to share some pictures of last years trip just because.

Excited for these two trucks to be out on the trail together again:

That's enough for now.

 

Hope you guys have a great trip I'll be ready for the next one.

 

why you no go?

still want those seat jackers?

 

I don't have enough pto . And I have some finances I need to get caught up on.
Yes I'd still like them.

 

stoopid life, shits on everything fun once in a while
