pirate unibody run

[67temp]

Pirate had a unibody run at rausch creek. Stu and I both went up and hung out with them then just us two wheeled together. I was a pretty day to be on the trail. We didnt get many pics but here are a few of them.

It went down hill real quick after this. I broke the pass front axle shaft, upper and lower BJ, grade 8 bolt in my crossover steering, and rear drive shaft.

2 winches and 1.5 hrs to get it off the rocks. Another 30 mins to reset the knuckle for a secont time. Under 3 hrs total from breakage to on the trailer.

We had the ZJ strapped to a tree and the 10k winch pulling on it with a high lift and floor jack helping it back up and over the rocks. If it wasn't for the other group that had broke on crawler as well hanging around......it would have been a really long day.

Thank god I didn't have the zook out that day.

Yup that was US. Sorry we didn't say HI We were not sure if it was U or not Like you we only saw a glimpse of the zebra . When we didn't see U around camp we figured it was someone else.

I had the last tent & Fire-Ring all the way down at the far end of the camp area Fri & Sat night.

ah dang sucks we missed each other I got up there friday evening probably about 6:30. I was camped back in the corner and left on saaturday not long after I got my broken rig back to camp. Tell those two I said Hi next time you talk to them.
