UNSTUCK
But stuck more often.
I've driven over those tire rippers a few times in one of my older jeeps. No different then driving over sharp rocks. Our style of tires can handle it with no problems. At least on a lighter rig.
Does this seem strange? (possible abandoned vehicle)

I have often thrown my floor mats on them to hold them down for passage. Works well.

A friend reports that it was up there on June 14th. Expired plates. Pics show broken (or at least disconnected) tie rods/drag link.

This rig is still up Prov Canyon. I am in the process of tracking down the owner. Just spoke to his step brother. The kid knows nothing about rigs. Just bought this cause it looked cool. Does not know how to recover or have any friends with the ability to recover this. The steering arm on the passenger knuckle has sheared the four bolts securing it to the knuckle. I figured just put some tires on it and drive it down the canyon with someone steering the right wheel with a big pry bar. The windows are getting busted out. The winch has been stolen. Tires are gone and it is sitting on the axles. Other than that it is still complete.

Thats the one. Used to be cool. I spoke to the owner a few minutes ago. They are headed up this afternoon and put wheels on it and try to get it down. He will keep me posted.

someone should bring a spare knuckle with to swap out, if it were closer, I have a spare to lend to recover it, it would take less than an hour to swap out a yota knuckle and make the drive out a lot easier

If you can get two of the studs out you can pull two from the other side like we did out on Waynes World the other day.

Done. Drilled out 2 of the broken studs on the passenger side. Removed 2 from the drivers and limped it of the hill. It took more time to get tires on it.

Good work Hopefully it was a good learning experience for the owner.

Another window had been busted out since I was up there Monday. I think if it had stayed up there much longer it would have been a total waste. The kid drives for Pepsi so I think I got a lifetime supply of Mtn. Dew out the deal.
