Figured i'd share a few pics of my last trip through the con. Went pretty well overall, little carnage, but nothing too major. Broke the cup the cv ball rides in and welded a socket in its place, packed it with grease and ran the whole trail, still surprised that worked as well as it did.

It was fun, lotta work though. it's the 89 in my sig, it's got around 4-5" of lift, no inner fenders in the front, and a bit of trimming.

Let me see what i got of the hula girl, pry the most expensive mod :) but glad she enjoys it too!

I thought I was gonna fit, i tried it flat and didn't look to good, this one still has a nice body on it for now. Tried goin up the wall the second go round and was hitting the pillar, might have made it if i went higher up the wall, but had traffic behind me. I'll have to give it another shot next time.
 
we did most of the trail at night, so i don't have too many pics of the trip from Wentworth Springs to Buck Island Lake, here are a few more of this trip and a few from a previous trip. The wheeling is great as is the scenery, my favorite place by far.

I really like to see the fill size full body rigs out there. It sure does shock the jeeps n yotas. You got a pretty clean rig for that trail.
I was out there 2 weekends ago and had a great time.

My lady was asking me "Where do all the CK5 guys wheel?" so now I know we have a few more out in the con than I thought.

You do any wheeling at fordyce?
 
been meaning to get to fordyce, haven't made it there yet. Gas prices are really cutting into my trail rides these days, if i can't go for atleast 3-4 days, i just go camping with the s15.

You planning on going up again sometime? It would be nice to wheel with a couple other folks with full sizes, my buddys all have jeep or toyotas, although my brother's jeep is hardly a jeep anymore, it's mostly my old blazer :)

Hey, if you plan on running the rubicon or fordyce next year, look me up. (I'm fairly local to the con, and fordyce i guess can be considered in my backyard as well.) I will have my truck ready to go for sure. The group i run in, makes both of the trails pretty regularly, so i should be making quite a few trips with them and other next year/ possibly late into sept. this year..
 
Next time you guy go to the Rubicon, I'd like to go with you. Just PM me when you're gonna plan a trip and I might be able to round up a couple other buddies with fullsizes.

Sounds good, I was thinking Labor Day to hit up Cantina...
