    Oh yeah, needles to say but I need to get another alignment:rofl::anonymous:
    But I did get it really close so that's why I kept wheeling.
    To bad the center of my steering wheel was off about 2".

    Also, @Skierrichy thanks to your suggestion (and harbor freight), the tool selection grew by one today.

    The trails are epic and challenging!
    I have it all in my GPS.
    Hopefully next year we can get another team up there.
    I'm not exactly sure...
    My rear diff was hung up on a rock so I went back and forth a couple times, no spotter:anonymous:
    Then the last time I spun tires and I heard something pop,:bananadead: I thought it was the CV but alas the tie-rod.
    It was awesome though, I love trail fixes:thumbsup:
    Especially when I had to recover it off the trail first... That was a great challenge!

    Oh yeah new tools to add to the list:

    -Torch, need to find something compact
    -Tie rod removal/install tool, have it and keeping it but probably shouldn't have spent 95$ on it. It also has sentimental value:thumbsup:
    -Something to bash the washer over on the inner tie rod.
    (That was a pain in the ass, I have a punch which worked on 1 side but had to just squeeze with pliers on the other side.)
    -Aftermarket tie rods, which = spare tie rods:rofl:
