but not to worry this morning we went and got a reman engine and it is in the truck already
(it is so cool working in a big shop)
My Ranger only needed tie rod ends and a new stereo so I did that today- With the Explorer guys and us all on the trail at once this is going to be GREAT 
we are planning a 9-10 am sunday start time from the west so come on !
so we stopped to check -it seamed bad-but on closer inspection it was a small by pass hose that we shortened and fixed on the spot -while the techs fixed it another team member and I walked down to the river and we filled that bad boy up with river water and drove on!
at 8am on sunday we ate a big breakfast ,fueled up and hit our ROLLING SP at 9:17 am .We were the first to leave as the ice on the puddles was intact! We met a bunch of dirt bikes and a few quads a Land Cruiser, 2 Jeeps ,geo tracker and a samuri with a sleeping baby in a carseat!! 1175 was another story it is a hard trail ,luckily we were going east to west and it was DOWNHILL other wise forget it ! we will post pics and vids before too long -this was a great trip and we will do it again next year -come with us!!
