As the topic says, who broke what at the round up. Jeff and Kyle from toy connection were working on rigs all weekend long.

Seems as there were a bunch of break downs this year.

We didn't break anything on the Rubicon trail which was awesome. Is there a prize for longest wheel base ha ha.

Gixxer Jon · « **Reply #7 on:** Sep 18, 2011, 08:44:26 PM »

In our group a jeep broke an axle, a new rubicon broke out a side window and a 1st gen pickup twisted a driveline and sheared a center pin on his front leaf.

I didnt break anything but I did loan out a pass side high steer arm to someone that sheared the pin.

That's nice of you

I didnt break either but I had to drag the the first gen from atop of the slap (just above little sluice) all the way back to the springs.

Steering box

Luckily Someone had a recently rebuilt and tapped box to get me back on the trail.

I will get a pic up of how it broke when I get it apart.

SloCrawler · « **Reply #20 on:** Sep 18, 2011, 11:03:47 PM »

I twisted my shaft and sheared spring pin, and thanks for the wild ride "tow" back is was fun.

IMMUDDY · « **Reply #21 on:** Sep 19, 2011, 12:45:33 AM »

My front shackle's came apart about 30 minutes below Lil Sluice.
Thanx to those crazy Canadians(Gary, John, and Cory) for helping me out on the trail with their ratchet-strap fix to hold my leaf spring on the shackle bolt so I could limp back to camp for parts and repair from those great guys at the Toy Connection pit.
Thank you Jeff and the rest of the Toy Connection crew for all of their help.
Best wheeling/camping trip ever!
Can't wait for next year.

Glad you made it home safe. That was pretty funny how it happened and don't worry you made the group photo.

I grenaded my rear third just before big sluice heading to loon, not sure how, not sure why since I don't have a heavy foot, but it happened. Luckily I brought a spare third and within an hour I was back motorin down the trail

Oh and my body and sliders took a beating for sure.

No worries I enjoyed driving 2.5 hours to Pollock Pines while you drank beer. Thanks for the tank of fuel you bailed on.
