Night Eagle's kind of a build thread

I never get notifications. Didn't relise that they got tied into the pic.

 

Well I finally spoke to Rocky mountain driveline about my dented driveshaft. I just need to decide if I want to spend 150 for a retube or 450 for a reinforced driveshaft.

 

Here are a couple pics from two weekends ago, when I went snow bashing with @Squeaky Penguin up in Steamboat.









Me stuck (small theme of the day)



Squeaky's back end full of snow





Short distance from the top but couldn't get past the last snow field.

I had to head out early for a wedding but got these pics at the bottom.

 

Well I dropped my driveshaft off today to get it retubed at rocky Mountain driveline. Thanks to @lotsoftoys for the recommendation.

 

Theyll take care of ya. They do great work

 

Picked up newly minted driveshaft this afternoon and got it reinstalled.

 

Here are my pics from the trip on Sunday. Red Cone>Deer Creek>Middle Fork Swan>SOB Hill>Georgia Pass

I ran it with @Wishbone Runner, @teamhypoxia, @Squeaky Penguin, and @chenbro

Great trip cant wait to do it again some time.

 

Awesome pictures! Jealous!!

 

Ya it was a really awesome trip. I grew up in the mountains and I still can't get enough of the views.

 

Never gets old! It's amazing!

 

Nice truck and cool trip pics. I'll sub here.

 

No it does not. That is why I couldn't really live anywhere else except colorado.

Thanks man, she has come along really well. Ya I do my best at getting good pics.

 

@RogueTRD I looked at your thread not too long ago. Really nice looking rig!

 

Well I am finally posting some pics of my trip two weeks ago down to the san juan mountains near Telluride. To do the Alpine Loop with @Wishbone Runner, @Squeaky Penguin, @teamhypoxia, @Flboarder, and @09blacktaco. The trip was amazing and hope to do it again some time. Here are a few pics that I liked.

Dude those pictures are so awesome! I love the one with the house on the cliff side and the waterfalls!! You're jealous of the gears and lockers I just ordered, I'll trade you in a heart beat to have amazing places to explore like that as close as you do

 

Thanks man. I think I will pass. I will stick with where I live. It was still 5.5 hour drive to get there.

You just need to take another trip to Colorado and we can hit up some cool trails.

 

Dude too bad we didn't hook up when I was out there last September. Joey (Tanto27) showed me around and we did Bill Moore Lake trail. Amazing!! Hopefully I can make it out there sometime in the near future and we could hit some trails!!!

 

When did you do the alpine loop?

Did it over the 4th of July and there was a shit ton more snow than that, jealous looks like you got to do black bear? that was still snowed in on the 4th

 

Ya it is too bad. My truck wasn't very built then. Ya I bet, I haven't run that trail yet. Ya Joey is a good guy. I wheeled with him during rock therapy.

You should definitely hit me up if you head this way some time. What is wheeling like out there, compared to here?

 

We went two weeks ago. Perfect timeing. It was right after the fj summit and right before 100s on the mountain. Still ran into a good amount of people though. Ya black bear was the first trail we hit down there. There were still some pretty big snow drifts.
