Well I came home a lil earlier than I planned still had a blast met some new friends and had one hell of a saturday night lol. I spent most of the time wheelin, wrenchin, and drinkin(in that order lol). Not many action pics but I got pics of a few of the trucks/buggys there was 130+ rigs that showed up and a few more showed up as I was pulling out.

We had to loop the strap when John tried to pull me out b/c it was to long and he couldnt get me unstuck but did manage to bend the tubes on the roll bar.
Picture072.jpg

My exhaust broke here first.
Picture073.jpg

Then here lol.


All in all I only broke one U joint on the front driveshaft which was a quick fix but I had t rig up a chain to limit my front travel I kept poppin the driveshaft out the slipyoke b/c of to much flex and my rollover switch kept getting tripped so we just bypassed it. Cant wait for the Labor day event.
 
Holy fawking carnage. Looks like fun!

Did you notice the club name? Its a blast out there I highly recommend anyone remotely close to Knoxville IA make it out once to try your luck at the 800 acres of old Quarry. I didnt take alot of action shots b/c I was playin around and didnt feel like stopping. A few people got video of Me and Brian(mud ducks owner) gettin stuck and if they show up on youtube or the MIOBI site Ill post them.

Im just gonna ditch my front fenders I dont need them anyway. Ill prolly replace the headlight though and my toolbox is where my battery is so Ill have to do something about that. We had the fenders off when I first got there as we were going to see if I could fit the ducks spare 44" boggers but they wouldnt clear my toolbox or front doors so no go on that I need to try and find a set of like 38" tall boggers or tractor tires and I definitely have to do something about that damn slip yoke front drive shaft either a doubler or something.
 
thats looks like a ball. the FJs are so cute all lined up about to go on an excursion to the mall. and.... why did that 350 have a chevy bowtie on the hood....... otherwise that looks, impressive to say the least. i am in awe i wanna make a buggy now haha not in military housing hahaha
