** DEJA Trail Ride @ Rausch Sat Nov 30 2013 -Member Appreciation Ride- **

woohoo, glad you found a solution, Mike!

how'd the lift perform Jerry?

Quite well, better ride than the factory suspension (Rubis have a stiff ride) and pretty stable on the few offcamber spots I did. Sadly, the rear left fender didn't do as well. I don't think getting wrapped under the tire helped either. lol

sounds like a typical DEJA carnage trip....wish i could have been there...

I was 40ft from the carnage. Unfortunately I couldn't get any of it on film.

We had a little in our group
I destroyed my passenger front axle shafts.
Turned the U-joint cross into a letter I and sheared off the yokes on both the inner and outer shaft.

Spare parts had that back on tne trail in short repair.

Then we had welds fail on the mount for the hydro steering Lukes Jeep.
The gusseting on the front axle allowed a large bolt to hold that in place to get the rig safely off the trail with limited steering.

It was a fun day. The snow and Ice made some of the trails extremely challenging.
Im still laughing about some of our one liners
