Got a tow hitch??, I got a small popup trailer that I'm not sure how I would get up there, but would like to.


Might try to stuff it in the front of my buddies 20' trailer if he makes it.

Also, do the sites we are gonna be at have electric?

Thats a nice little camper,would work nice on the front of a trailer,if you can take the extra weight.I think the regular tent sites dont have power,I believe for 10 bucks you can upgrade. ken

Only 3 days left!! ;D ;D ;D

Got my Yukon axles and super joints installed this past weekend. I am pretty sure I won't break any front u-joints - them things are stout! Can't wait to try them out.

I am just wondering what will break next?? ?:?

Let's see, I've watched you blow the engine, trans, multiple u-joints at the oddest times and god knows what else.

My guess is transfer case!;D




You didn't really want an answer did you?

I don't know but I hope you are having as much fun on the next break as we were on the last one!!!
My guess would be a hub....
Man, Chris goes right for the throat doesn't he?

Chris: Now that you mention it - wheelin' with you is bad luck!! :p

I'm thinking rear axles maybe?? Still running 28 splines.

ChrisinWV: You might be right about the hubs, though!

I think more like your bad luck wears off on me! I think you were around for the clutch disinigration, driveshaft u-joint and front axle that I had.

Those 28 splines have got to have a good twist started by now. With the trails we have been working up to over the last few years it will happen. Might as well swap them out on your terms.

Jed,is there much snow and ice left? I am wondering if I should keep the swampers on for this trip. TIA!

There should be. My front and rear yard is still covered and I live an hour south of there.

I watched Ken Messer do amazing things with 38s and stock axles! You will probably roll it and just thrash the body;D

SNOW IS MELTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..............slowly.
There might not be a lot of white stuff on the ground by the time you get here. Things will still be a little sloppy though , but over 60 degrees.
Don't get to excited though the pool won't be open for a while yet.
Well I guess I should get to work on our ugly beast it hasn't been moved since the last time we had a ride.

I'm bringing up a small pile of firewood for Friday and Sat night around the campfire. That will be down next to the store and front entrance both nights. About 7pm Friday should be good.

I'll be the guy in the chair getting a good buzz on! I need it after this week at work. Who is bringing the bag of peanuts?

If anyone else can bring firewood it would be great.

Well , if you all don't break this time, you will know it's me, Chris I think I was around for at least two of those breaks...Coming out of the rock garden on that little dirt path....the clutch was last year's snow run, and I might have been there for the driveline too..
Somebody have one too many for me will ya?
I hate moving........Grrrrrrrrr
I'd almost drive up just for the campfire......

Since I'm riding with you that means you can't break anything. I don't want to get dirty, I get dirty everyday at work;D ;D
