Callalente July 2cd to the 5th...

I picked up some shutdown work for this weekend so I'll be spending all Thursday on the job site with my crew trying to organize and get them setup for this weekend's work, so that means I won't be able to get to leave until early Friday morning. So, don't expect me until some time Friday.
 
money is lookin tight so my chances are 60/40 right now.
Plus I wouldn't mind finding some decent trouble to get into 'round here for the 4th. Hopefully it involves a girl. :lol:
 
Grant and I will be heading out around 7am
 
Our lil' groups destruction for the weekend included(but not limited too)
1 hub(Dawgtoy)
1 electrical short in lights, also at 12:30 am on armorall(cumminsdzl)
2 rear center pins(me)
1 really bent rear spring pack(me)
1 38" bogger(me)
1 driveshaft (me)
2 digital Cyberdyne guages(me) my second set
I also pulled 1/2 the studs through the rear axles 3rd
1 Swampy.:lol:

Oh and BIGAZZBURBAN wouldn't listen to me and ended up ripping his front Lower control arm mount off the unibody.
 
Swampy didn't have a very good day.....My fan messed up and then the epic fail...propane converter

This is what happens when you leave your rig on the side of the trail:lol:

I'd also like to send out a special thanks to the guys in the buggy who past us broken down on the tail and asked us where they could get propane.:flipoff2: And the Crabby guy in the Green bronco who parked in the middle of the trail and acted like it was killing him to move the hell out of the way.
 
Man Kyle......You missed out on the trip to Ruby Tuesdays....

2x for me about the green bronco...I had to ask him 2 different times(different locations). Common sense tells most of us that when you stop to watch a group or break down you pull as far as you can to the side of the trail. His wife was nice and polite and I thanked her...but he seemed to have a bug up his ass.

Curb feelers man, hate to see you scratch up those beadlock rings.....


I wish i would have had some curb feelers, then i wouldn't have like 6 holes in both my right side tires

I'm going to cut the stars out of my beadlock rings just so you will have one less place to put zip ties
 
Lol at the last few posts. Carl, you definately missed a good time at Ruby Tuesdays.

Thanks to the Jeep with MountainRam on Friday for giving us that center pin. It lasted while the other side broke on Saturday.

Bigazzburban and BigJuggy...still don't know why you listen to Justin...always a bad idea. Had a great time wheelin with you guys.

Green bronco guy...god forbid you have to move over into a "gully" on the side of a main trail. Thanks for finally moving. We didn't want to be an inconvienence. :)

Had a great time as always. Good meeting new people and putting faces with the names on a computer. The upper section of Armor All is becoming one of the best trails there. So many lines and options. Run it downhill at night for a little extra fun.

***For future reference...the trail leading up the mountain from Payne Rd. to the AORC rock garden is impassible now due to logging on that side of the mountain. ***
 
I also removed the useless door henges....I took the zip ties off and will reuse them at a later point in time.
 
BIGJUGGY Via Satellite rollin' down 421 Southbound

Well me an BIGAZZBURBAN finally got down off the mountain at
8pm...thanks F'er's ...:flipoff2:

Went up for one last quick ride up ArmorAll...no problems...then decided to turn around and run it backwards

Made it maybe 20' and know we broke at least drivers side axle on both ends, posibly broke locker or r & p ... or maybe pass side axle...then the jeep died and would not crank back,
found some blown fuses and replaced, still no fire or fuel pump.
Began raining, then pouring...
started winching out of the creek, up the hill and found the unit bearing separating....fixed that to hold the wheel on
also broken brake caliper mount and frayed winch cable...

Had some ATV's run back to campground only to see RedneckCJ5's taillights in the distance...thanks Pal...I'll remember that...:flipoff2:

Anyhow...got a ride back to camp with ATVer's...damn ghosttown I tell ya...everyone had bagged asss.....brought a
fresh Interstate battery back up...killed that Bitch within 30
feet winchin...Pansy ass ATVer's bagged ass too....so we hiked down the mountain for Help...not a Sole there with a 4x4
...Thanks Fella's...:flipoff2: went to town, bought a new Optima Yellowtop at the GhettoZone...met some yocals with a Toyota hangin out in the lot...apparently the highlight in Mountain City...well they were sampling some homegrown herb
with the adjacent vehicle...anyhow, talked enuf shit to em to get them to come help us off the mountain

Hauled boogy back up the mountain, got the winch back in action and finally towed that Bitch outta there...

So we got another hour to ride here and then off to work by 8am in the RTP (another hour ride to work)

Had a blast ridin' with you Fawker's...:flipoff2: Look forward to the next trip...!!!

PS What did I LEARN THIS WEEKEND....When your FK'd...your FK'd ....WORD UP...Paul....!!!!

:beer:
