went up again last sunday, had a blast! very eventful my buddy in a Cherokee broke his rear driveline and snapped his tie rod on crushers, i drove back to a friends garage and found/fixed all needed parts. found a raging wild fire later on past the top of crushers. called the fire department and watched them come out. pics up soon!

Had to be some idiot causing the fire. Cause it hasn't been that hot and dry to cause a fire naturally. BIL says the landing is wet every morning for the last two weeks up Cedar Butte.

yeah we saw some people leaving the area before we saw the smoke and walked up to it. luckly we found it in time!

heres some pictures from earlier that day

then his rear driveline turned into a Twizzler.

and he proceeded to not use a spotter while winching and snapped his tie rod

So we put his tie rod and driveline in my truck and

drove out to a friends garage to weld his tie rod back together

, and found a spare driveline we could use after swapping his old u-joint and flange over

drove back and installed new parts

and spotted him back around and out $Beer Chug\'n$

Gotcha, ya that's where I am now. I'm going to browns this sunday, you still make it out there occasionally?

On another note the mail man dropped off a box, Marlin 23spline 4.7 competition chromoly gears

Here they are next to my marlin 30spline front output shaft, now all I need is the 30spline rear output shaft and I'll be set.

update:

I've been wanting to buy a winch for a long time now, decided on the warn m8000 and here it is.

I moved the solenoid box forward about 2" to not interfere with the grille, other than that fitment was spot on.

how it looks from the front

Its nice to know its there just in case! I only plan on using it if I'm stuck out alone, which I try to avoid.

I made a couple changes to it, swapped out the roller style fairlead for a warn steel hawse fairlead and also swapped the original hook for warns premium hook. I'm really liking the beefiness and integrated beer bottle opener on the hook.

daniresch · « **Reply #349 on:** Apr 03, 2014, 04:26:14 PM »

yeah they've been good to be, but i'm going to sell them soon for something a little bigger. You know anyone that might want them? got all 5

Dingman. · « **Reply #350 on:** Apr 04, 2014, 10:02:07 PM »

you planning on just keeping the steel cable or switching to synthetic in the future?

83 Crawler · « **Reply #351 on:** Apr 05, 2014, 03:32:43 AM »

No rubbing at all daily driving the past 2 weeks, and I just finished installing bump-stops on all four corners today so I should be good on the trail too.

I haven't mentioned this before, but I have been thinking about it for a while.... 3.4 motor swap
