How about a 2.5 ton buggy? This one broke an axle, and we had to winch the axle shaft out.
Anybody know who this one belongs to?

Isn't that Cheston's rig?

I keep telling him that if he would take all of the IH, and SCOUT things off of the rig, then take out all of the Ford parts (engine, trans, 205), and replace them all with Mopar... He would not have any problems with the rig! I mean, we have even changed the term from "Stupid piece of $H!T!!!" To "Stupid piece of SCOUT!!!"
Yes, that is old Cheston's handy work! lol Tell me that he was at least doing something really cool when he snapped the shaft!?!? Had that massive 54" Bogger wedged in between some rocks, flopped it over, even being hard on the skinny pedal and it took one big hop up into the air, and when it came back down Cheston, I mean he, was still on the throttle...... Please say it was something deserving like that?!?!?! lol:rofl:
Poor Cheston!!!!

We are not sure what broke it, but it came apart on Britney, out at BFE. The way it broke it just finished twisting off from previous abuse.

Here are some of my pictures as promised. The Jeep full sized pick up truck belongs to one of the Cappa fellas who is the editor of JP Magazine. The Lower Forty was driven by the other Cappa fella who now works for Jeep. And the red full sized Dodge was Jinxy driven by the editor of Off Road Magazine Jared Jones. All of them invited me to run with them on Poison Spider, Gold Bar Rim, and Golden Spike.

Rob surfing on Jinxy.jpg
Hmmm... I seem to remember you Surfing on another standard cab Dodge at that obstacle! ;) But we were going the other direction so it wasn't so bad! Looks like Jinxy needs to have the sway bar adjusted a little... I was able to go through that obstacle the other way, with 10" coils and leaves, with no swaybar. But it was a lot of butt pucker in the driver's seat!!!:eek:
Looks like a great day on the Spike with some awesome rigs! And it looks like the Beater did great! Where did you lose the tire at?? Any pics of that incident? Did you cut the sidewall or what happened?

We had a good time at ejs too. We went out to bfe on thursday and tried to do greenday but I got us lost again. Next time I need to go out with someone who knows there way around there. On friday we did rusty nail which was a little to much for my basically stock tacoma. After a broken ujoint and 3 new dents though we made it through. Then on saturday we did hells revenge. L.T. it was good talking to you and cory at the camp ground even though you are fed up with the ramcharger seeing that thing keeps me motivated on mine.
