  • Broke my sway-bar stabilizing shock. Keith performed an emergency amputation out on the trail. Just wanted to let our group know that I made it back OK. Two bouts of death wobble near the end of the trip. That was INTERESTING. :rolleyes: Thanks for the advice about handling it. FYI Julian, I managed to avoid the biological malfunction that we discussed on the trail...just.


    Had a blast. Can't wait to read the trail report to learn where we went today.

  • Definitely a fun weekend! The courses were tough and my team dident do well this time around. It was nice to see team deja kicking ass though. I broke enough to keep me busy for awhile. :bang:. Thanks everybody that helped me out with my fixes through the weekend! Especially Aaron who welded a cut in half wrench to each side of my cracked upper control arm axle side mount. Definitely a cool functional trail fix that got me home in one piece. Trail riding today was a blast. The group I was with did awesome and we covered a lot of ground. I'm looking forward to next time!

  • Everyone can rest easy........I fixed my seat. :mrgreen:



    Good to see everyone made it home. Defiantly a good day out there yesterday, thanks to everyone for getting me out of the couple tough spots.
    The skids took a beating for sure, need to look and see where I need to add more.

    Sucks about your rim. Glad the lug nuts came off. Had me worried for a few minutes.

  • I've got a fix in the works. I ordered some inserts that will get pressed into the holes and welded once the holes are drilled out. Hopefully it works. Im gonna get a fifth one made out of my spare though and the repaired one will end up as a spare when the new one is ready. Also ordered ball joints and a new control arm mount so I should be fixed up in time for the members run.
