The cj rolled on lower 2 after turning around and heading back down. Luckly he welded the cage in two days before the trip. They weren't part of our group, but they were a bunch of nice guys from Mississippi.

Guardrail was the hardest thing I went up and then we went down Schoolbus. I just went friday after work and came home saturday evening. Short trip.

Hey Rodney nice pics, the guy that owned the Cj with the 42's is a good friend of mine. Lower 2 must have been pretty rough, he busted his shit up good! He lost a rear u-joint and broke the bolts holding down the right spring on his front D60, not to mention a bend tie-rod! for him not to be able to WALK up lower 2 is unusual, then that other Jeep rolled there too! How was Schoolbus? I haven't been up there in over a year.

Yeah that CJ was a nice rig and he walked up lower 2 quickly without a problem until the rear u joint let go. He replaced the u jointk, but the front bolts on the diff that hold the axle to the springs had broke and I believe the center pin in the spring had broke because the axle had moved back about 4 inches on the passenger side. He was a nice guy, I took his wife to get their car so he could go get the tow rig. Wished I could find some affordable 1 tons.

School bus is probably not as bad as it was a year ago, the big rock isn't so hard to get over anymore, but I think everything else is harder with the exception of lower 2.

I added one more of the CJ with 42s.
