Looks like yall had fun..... Did you fix your Axle, and keep wheeling? or did you have to call it a day?

I also seen in another thread, James Rolled the Bronc....

Hope all are safe...

How did your Solid Axle work?

PEACE
 






I must see this video!! do you have a way to host it?? if not just email it to me, i cant host it, but i want to see it
 






Rick luckily had a rear outer he loaned me, I installed it that day. However when Sunday came it was raining worse than Saturday and cold so we all called it a day. THNX RICK. I'll bring your part back in MOAB.

My solid axle worked great, I broke the axle while retrieving Johnstone, his truck was tilted to an extent that the fuel level prevented it from starting, so I had to pull him out, then there I go cranking the wheel and punching the gas and snap goes the axle. I still got him out, though I had to use my winch. It was definitely a great time, we all had a lot of fun this time.
 






Great whoops!!!! :chug:
 






I have no way of hosting it.

SVO has it...
 
























I just got done spraying the inside and out of the explorer to get the wonderful red clay off of it. I had a great time. I would also like to thank Rick for making the venture out to Texas (sorry about the rain).

Here is where the pucker factor came into effect for Dina, Brad, and myself.

Love the pics, looks like everyone had a lot of fun. Just one question though. Can you tell me who's who in the group pic?
 






i'm curiuos about the sport trac, looks pretty stock sitting next to everyone elses rig,was it able to keep up with the rest of u, neone happen to know what mods he does have done? thanks

how far is gilmer from san antonio, which is where i'll be all summer and would love to make a run up there, hopefully a few will be ready for another run mid summer
 






The one with us standing around is after we left Sunday. We ate on the way home and it was myself (with the Flag on my head), Mudduck, Drew, Drews wife Kendra, Bobdreadknot and his girlfriend and then my cousin and his wife. I believe there are some more pictures out there of everybody but they just havn't shown up yet.

The sport track was driven by Johnstone and I assure you its not stock at all. It is running 35x12.50 I believe and yes it kept up with us. If you look him up he has many good pics online. Don't let the pics fool you, it was raining good this day and the trails were extremely slick. I think everyone of us had lockers front and rear with the exception of SVO (has a locker rear and limited slip front). Without lockers I don't believe anyone would have made it through any of these trails this weekend due to the rain making it very slick.
