Gee I just walked in the door.
rokcrln 12-09-2001, 05:27 AM Well Jim and my self had a great time with our wife/girlfriend along with us. But it was loanley at the top, We did not see many people up their untill the way out and they looked like city folk. Did every one stay on the trail or are their turn offs. We got their around 8am and headed back down around 3pm. Had agreat time breaking trail, had to let down to 3pis on 35 good year mtr's and it worked great untill the way down got side ways and ended up loosing two beads! A couple Jeeps stoped by and BSed and helped bead both tires back up (they were the ones with the block of wood for the high lift) (bigcj I think). We saw one yj with 44" swampers and stock axels:eek: and he has only gone through 5 U-joints in the last 5 months and he wheels every weekend (sluce-soup kitchen-and others). Well her are some pics, they will be one at a time untill some one can tell me how to link them together. PS any one have some decent 40"s they want to sell?:)

rokcrln 12-09-2001, 05:35 AM Here is SLVREGL's70
rokcrln 12-09-2001, 05:36 AM Lunch stop around 1:30 top of the grade.
rokcrln 12-09-2001, 05:41 AM Here is my stuck shot of the trip. To much right foot and not enough above the neck! Lost both pass sides beads the rear just came off the bead but the front came 1/2 way off the rim!
rokcrln 12-09-2001, 05:45 AM I feel I must say before slvregl kicks my ass for the stuck shot I posted but it was the only one I had. He did get stuck but dug him self out every time ( I guess this means it did not happen) as for me I am not into self abouse so I hooked a rope on when I got stuck and busting trail we got stuck but it was assume!!! And no high lifting in 6" of snow is not fun but it can be done.
rokcrln 12-09-2001, 05:50 AM Yj on roids! With stock axels!!! He has the stock mrt w/Atlass II and a klune-v-4.56's and a auto for a combined of 170 I think he said. And the 60's are bought and delivered but with the wrong gears ( did not even match front to back 4.88/5.13) so they were sent back! Still one big @$$ jeep.

rokcrln 12-09-2001, 01:56 PM What time was that, I assume it was around4:00 or so. We just finished re-beading both tires and were late for a X-mas dinner in Fairfield! Next time we will need to have zero plans but some is better than none. Let us know when you are heading up again.
