Return from Cleghorn July 28th

[cybergasm]

you need to see if the f150 coil seat mod will work for it... there is a set of ranger front axles on here for sale with warn hubs for 100 bucks...post a stock pic of her...

don't think it would work it has torsion bars up front but i am looking for a set of coilovers tho i'll get the pic later today i do need to take some before pics

 

[Tbars4]

do you think my coilovers for loads would work for ya???...maybe we should do this in your d50 mod page later...:scratch:

I wanted to give the people that were not there a idea of ... "Mr. Gil's wild ride"

you forgot the parts about him almost flipping over like four times abd some how staying upright and power housing through it straight towards me and justin and stic-o (i still don't know anyones real name) and stopping within a foot of stic-o's truck as we all run away amazed that he didn't flip, drive off the side of the hill, or hit us or the truck.


hey this is my picture

i like how almost all the pictures anyone has, stic-os hood is always open

 

[Tbars4]

r.j. , cool more pics...600x480 are easier to load... i wondered what happened to you??? and your pic showed up on the jeep forum i think, before we even got home, lol...

Wow! Glad everyone was ok. Considering the whoops we almost had on the last run at Cleghorn and the various car parts in the dirt on that downhill I'd say that spot claims many a rig.

 

[Brother_of_Jefe]

Wow!! Glad you guys are OK (and sad I couldn't make it)

Jefe sure has a knack of riding in vehicles that roll

However, I'm reconsidering my offer to let Jefe ride shotgun anytime

Stic-O - "welcome to the club"

yes you see, i don't know how to re-size pictures and such. i just take them from the camera and they are how they are. yeah i know its weird huh, an 18 year old that doesn't know anything about computers.

what happenend to me? hmm?

i got home around 4-5 or so and loaded the pics up. it only take me 40 minutes to get to cleghorn

 

[Tbars4]

[Tbars4]

'cause no one got me on video I got this guy to reproduce it for y'all

 

[Khiori]

Yep. That's kinda what it looked like. I think since you were able to keep hitting the banked sides, that's what threw you back upright instead of rolling. To make things more confusing, there were about a dozen people standing where you ended up stopping. (three of us and a bunch from that other group of people who stopped) I'm still in awe that you stopped within a foot of Stic-o's open tire rack.

 

[FROADER]

That is what it looked like except you got about 4' of air each time!

that wasn't a foot that was 3 inches.. that was some seriuse luck.. I was realy thanking god.. and thinking about kissing the pavement when we got down..

So My damage was a bent spindel that my Fab guy had a stock pile of 'cause he replaces them when he dose his 5 inch lift kit..

 

[FROADER]

So it's all fixed with a new spindle and some tierod adjustments?

Yup, I can go pick it up tonight.. but I already got tickets for the simpsons.

Oh yeah.. I got figure out what to do with my airbags.. but I'll worry about that after I move.

*runs off to find out what a spindle is*

Next time I even THINK "this could get interesting" I'm going to pull out the camera and get it filming.

the spindle connect to the upper and lower control arm, and hold the hub that hold the wheel on..
