First "MassHole" meeting Sunday

Good news is my brakes aren't frozen solid this morning. But now my truck is creeking like a 50 year old Ford.

 

ya mines the same way . i went to the car wash earlier but all the pressure washers were frozen .
Im ready to head back out there or check out other locations whenever you want to go!

 

Great time yesterday! My truck is still frozen, haha

 

So who's up for some NH exploring in a few weeks?

 

Mine is just about defrosted lol. Spent the last night in a warm heated garage getting taken apart.

 

What's funny that after being out in that cold yesterday, the 30 degrees today kind of feels nice lol. My truck is sitting in the sun, so for the moment, it's no longer frozen.

 

Im up for any expedition anytime! I'd love to check out NH. My buddy wants to come along for the ride this time too. I told him whenever I can find another taco that can pull me out if/when I get stuck were good to go. So if anyone ever has a place and/or a day off I'm ready to head out exploring. Just let me know!

 

How did your buddy make out with his hub/axle sorry I'm terrible with names .. The big ass 1st gen haha

 

brendan He broke the shaft but with the lock out hubs he had no problem. Although he did decide that running 37s was a bad idea and will be taking out part of his lift and putting 33's or maybe 35s on it.

 

Sounds like a lot of damage during this meet...or am i reading this wrong?

 

jeep broke rear dif
1st gen taco broke rear dif
different 1st gen broke front axle shaft
Jeep could not start after towing out other stuck jeep
problems with trucks freezing afterwads
I broke my licence place cover and ripped off a mud flap. Lol

That seems to cover it I think. Let me know if I missed anything

 

I think you got all of it

 

Ya his rig is huge with those 37's
I meant to ask you out there but forgot .
Are you running 33's ?

 

Yea im running 33's.

Its pretty funny that most of the modified vehicles broke down.
Although i belive that all of out breaks were forseeable lol.
The jeep that couldn't start just put a new motor in it and still hasnt worked the bugs out. He had a bad coil pack was up and running in a minute after the new one got put in.
And the silver wrangler had leaking diff so with mud and water in it made the bearings wear out and seize.(reason for the diff breather relocation mod) Although with all the dirt that we pulled out of it we belive that its been leaking for the past year.

 

Ya but you guys wheel a lot more then most of us other guys and also were getting into stuff I personal wouldn't do until I have armor and better tires

Either way get them fixed up and let do it again soon !

 

Well with all that water and the freezing cold weather things were bound to happen. Metal gets a bit brittle in the cold. Hope nothing happened to Brian or my trucks as we were trying to unstick them. (Didn't even think of it at the time)

 

I definatly don't think that it was just the ice that caused mine to fail. It was definatly weak to begin with and it just locked on the bad tooth. O well i get to order new gears 4.56s so it will be better in the long run.

 

You guys should have just come to lunch with me and the fiance

 

^^Stock friendly trail run, if you just read that you'd think it was a hardcore crawl!

 

none of the stockers broke. it was the modded guys trying the harder stuff.
