Hey guys I am not a paid member so I can't post in the thread you have going. Maybe a mod can move these for you.
I am in the process of rendering video. I am trying to keep the clips to 3 min so they are easy to upload and that way you don't have to sit thorugh all of the boring stuff.

Any chance that you guys can post your pics in a public album that I can see?

I thought it might be one of those kind of stories. :whistle:

Let's just say it was a loooooong day. Started going bad after getting hung up on the t/case........again :doah: Broke the adaptor in half and was high centered on the case. Got it unstuck with a hi-lift and winched from behind from Bo only to find out the sector shaft had also broke in the same spot so no gears or steering. Wound up running into a guy working at the Checker's in Boulder that happened to live about 10 minutes from the trail and had several steering boxes laying around. Things were looking up, for now. Got the box swapped out but unable to connect the lines, mine are flare style and the box was oring. I figured manual steering was better than no steering, right? Got the truck turned around and pulled back down the trail. Manual steering & 40's is no fun :mad: Got to a spot on the trail were Bo was pulling from across a turn, didn't have much steering and felt the rr tire hit a soft edge and pretty much knew it was going over. It was like a slow motion flop and had plenty of time to brace myself for it. I'm fine and the truck isn't too terrible so all in all could've been much worse. Thanks again for all your help Greg(GMule) except for the death scare pushing me down the road where our bumper got locked together and thought for sure we were going to roll the trucks :D

I know that feeling and thought sure that must have happened when I saw those pics. :doah: I'm glad everyone is okay. :waytogo:
 
It was a fun time, sucks that lots of parts got broken, but there were a lot of cool guys on the trail!:waytogo:

If I would have known you were going to put in an appearance, I might have tried harder to get there. :D

I know dude, you never know when I'm going to make a cameo appearance on the trail. I thought you were going to be there, next time.:laugh:
