Trip Report- Four Wheeler Trail ride on the Snakes

[broncomitch]

took my front end apart, bent all the snap rings and the plate that locks in the hub and only one side of the welds on my side spider gears broke, looks like i got no penetration on that gear. everything else is tip top.
the bronco did really good for it's last trip on the carb.

bump stops worked perfect (thanks for the help 864runner!)
power steering didnt throw the belt or even wine once and had really no problems turning my welded front end.
motor never went past 175 degrees and the trans stayed and 160.
and love my softer coils...if anyone has any pic's of my bronco please post em up. i only have one of it.

I know 864runner took lot's of pic's,im sure he will post them up.

heir is what i took.
eric really showed me up this trip,good job buddy

I thought you were serious till I scrolled down.

I remember you flopping on the way to WW

 

[broncomitch]

the flops where caused by the earth slowing down, so it's like hitting the brakes.
everything go's flying.

it was a grate trip, even with all the brakes.

only Tom took one of my waters, but i chuged down 19 of my 24 waters and 2 MD's

Here's my pictures

This is where Cheston broke his rear driveshaft.

This was Robin's rig that he had just bought

It was alot of fun me my runner did alot better then last time I was out there, made it halfway up Wayne's World thanks to welding my front the night before

Everyone was able to at least limp there trucks off the trail. The worst break was the Jeep on mog's, broke both air shocks, rear driveshaft and a lower link mount.

Big thanks to Stan and Cheston for putting this on, and thanks to Robin for giving us a reason to go wheeling!

i was kinda serious about flopping on WW. never witnessed a roll or haven't seen anyone take a line high enough to get it out of shape. jenn made ww in her LJ.

As far as rolling on the way to ww, hell i flopped in AF canyon

boredom is a mother......

That sucks! was the heim worn out?

 

[Matt]

Just wanted to say thanks again for everyone's help, was definitely a good group to wheel with when things go bad.
Don't know Goat? the heim did have 4 years of hard wheeling abuse.

4 years on a single upper .....with mogs........you are a brave man. i am running a single JJ on mine and keep lying awake, second guessing my design.

 

[Matt]

single upper? not sure what you mean, this pic might explain it better.

 

[zukijames]
