Yes knew about the Overland expo, I didn't go but some of our club members did.

Rick I think you would enjoy this run there are parts of trail that is rated class 4 and bypasses for rigs that are not set up for this ratting, but anyone is welcome to join us, if need more info PM me or post here.

This run is going to be one of the many runs planned for the Ghost Town Jamboree in April 2013.

Ok trip report, I GOT STUCK BAD & busted both front hubs, I wanted to try the hard way & not use the bypasses this time to really test out my rig, I had to be pulled & use my hi lift jack to get out, lol, but it was the 1st time I got stuck & had fun doing it.

Now I found a weak link, those stock auto locking hubs are not for big rocks, time to upgrade, any sugestions? on a post to check out.

I'm pretty sure only Warn has the ones with the set screws. They do help keep the nuts from loosening up which is a constant problem for D35s with large tires.

Thanks everyone for the info, just wanted to know how will manual hubs work with a lock right locker? you can't turn it off & on, it rachets while turning & not recomended for street use, so any input on this would be great, thanks
