So I have a little trip report. Probably the lamest ever but oh well
Went to Moab last weekend (Car show weekend) for it's maiden voyage. Got to Moab thursday afternoon and decided to hit hells revenge and catch up to some friends we had down there already. Got to the hot tubs and escalator pretty quick and then it decided to dump cats and dogs so we headed out as fast as possible. Desert rain storms are cool to see but when hail is ponding you in the hands and face it's a different story lol. Friday we ran pritchett canyon, I was impressed as to how the buggy was working on what I had tested it on so far. Walked right up chewey with no problem. Did the ledge right before the little bowl area just below rocker knocker and then thats when things started to go down hill. My freshly rebuilt tranny with maybe 10 miles on it started to act up. Any forward gear took some rpm's to engage the gear and then as soon as you would stop it would act as if it was in neutral. Got to the bottom of rocker knocker and checked the fluid and added a little hoping it was just a little low on fluid. Wasn't the case, got to rocker knocker and let the group I was with play around while I ate lunch then decided to head back and take it easy. Saturday morning I decided to pull the tranny pan and put a new filter on it and new fluid, then we all headed out to BFE. The tranny was working better but as soon as I got to the entrance of BFE it acted up again. As soon as it would heat up and get to temp is when it would start to act up. Headed down to the entrance of helldarado and parked the buggy. Walked the trail and watched my group shoot the water fall at the end. Needless to say the tranny is being torn down at the tranny shop as of yesterday. They dont know what it could be as of yet until they have it torn down, they say it is like its not pumping when up to temp. Guess we will see. Im not sure you can have a bad trip to Moab even with problems
The brewery and Zax was amazing as always
Good to see old man Bart down there as well
