Rattlesnake-Constrictor, Aug 24th

[CJ Matt]

Thanks to everyone that showed up. It was a great day. I noticed I have what I believe to be a gear oil leak that I need to take the belly pan off to find but other then that I was happy once again with how it is performing and ready for the Rubicon trip.

Sorry I had to dodge out early, wished I coulda hung for a bit more to atleast take some more pic's. Hope the rest of the day ended up good, enjoy the pic's!

The rest are here.

Hey, thanks to everybody that went, I had a blast!! And thanks for introducing me to the trenches, haha, driving on the side of my truck was fun.

At the first parking lot at 5 mile, the one with the bathrooms, there are some big trenches that just run through the parking lot. It's nothing special but you can get really off camber. I ended up going all the way over on my drivers side and then drove out of it, it was pretty funny.

Thats dosent look that bad Kyle Im sure it will buff-out, Where are Jake's pic's? Or was he just using your camera?

 

[193kyle]

Jake has a few on his camera, I'll try to get them and post them up.

Ooooo I have a great idea!

Pull your fenders off, we'll beat the dends out and add a bunch of flared holes to them, Flared holes fix everything!

 

[193kyle]

Not to mention that flares holes are good for like 5 horsepower each right? I'm gonna need alot of them. No but seriously that might look pretty trick, i might even go buy a new fender for that.

nice pics, too bad about the fender. Oh well, dents add personality!!

It's never worth getting new sheetmetal when there is always a probability of smashing it again! I took a little hit my self.

I finally got the 35mm developed so I had a few more pic's to show.

 

[193kyle]

Nice pics! How is the driveshaft coming?

Smashmetal had a broken part and had turn around at that point but the rest of us made it. It was not easy though. That is only the second time I have done these trails and the first time it took me about 6 tries. I made it the first time that day I learned that the skinny pedal and momentum is needed for that one.
