can anyone do a black trail ride on 23 or 24 of april? let me know
-
Well now...IF my bead locking rims are mounted and I get the new soft top in time I am very, very interested in a ride of this caliper.
By then I should be on my way to a new outlook on things and ready to get back into what I enjoy.
-
Well the 24th is Easter, but the 23rd might work. Not sure if I can hang with all blacks though. ???
-
I would be in for the 23rd.

-
Jack,
But will you remember to shift into 4-WHEEL DRIVE ;D ;D
-
Im out....weather for Rausch Creek is steady rain thru tomorrow then thunder storms in the afternoon...along with having my top off the jeep will make for a wet ride...
-
Lori and I are both sick >:( BUT if it is not down pouring when we get up at 5:30 am we Will be there. The radar has the second storm tracking north east and the weather report has the rain percentage dropping so it looks like we will be only getting a little damp. I am keeping my fingers crossed cause the next time a event falls on my day off is September and the Jeep has not moved since the last all black trail day
Also are we meeting at 8 or 8:30

If you all had weather like we had here in Lancaster today you had a wonderful day I'm sure.
-
Lori and I made it home with no other problems but it was quite fun in two wheel high going up 10 & H in the mud.
Thanks Jenn for guiding we had a lot of fun cant wait to go again
-
I am sorry Dave that my jeep attacked Jenn’s Jeep, it gets a little jealous of other V-8 Jeeps
-
WOW what a day!
Yes my Jeep was attacked by Mikes Jeep. But lets start from the beginning.........
Once upon a time there were 7 Jeeps that wished to take on a great journey on all black trails. The day was rainy but that didn't stop us for we have no fear. The first task of the day is to air down between rain drops, but unfortunately that is when 7 became 6 for one Jeep refused to let its owner take off some metal valve stem caps. (Sorry Keith we missed you). So 6 of us headed out to the first trail of the day, down CV trail to Walk in the Park, short but fun trail. Back up to the top to keep heading down C and back down CV trail again to play on black rocks that run along CV trail. This is when the second Jeep of the day decides to take a break, and by taking a break I mean destroying a axle shaft. The owner Jim showed us how to tear down a complete front axle and reassemble the whole thing in a matter of hours while the rest of us had some good laughs. (Good work Jim and Son repair company! Sorry you had a rough morning)The work crew finished up around 1 and we headed up to C to go over to the west side to play the rest of the day. But a call out over the radio for help was made for a JK was buried in Milkshake so down the road 6 of us drove to save the day. Once we were down one little Jeep tugged and tugged but no luck was to come for the poor buried JK. So then it was two little Jeeps who tugged and tugged but one of them was more jealous of the V-8 power and decided to take out a fender flare and fender while exploding its own hub. ( LOL Mike) So out came the winch for a nice demo and out popped a drenched JK. All while Mike fixed his poor hub. Then a big bad XJ came along and pulled the soggy JK up the rest of the tiny hill. ( LOL thanks Jack!) After doing our good deed of the day we headed up from Milkshake on trail 10 to go across rock creek and on to 13.....but wait whats that noise a call over the radio comes....poor little jealous Jeep has something wrong. Lets stop and check UT oh bent front drive shaft , time to go home good ole CJ and then it was 5 little Jeeps all in a row, across Rock Creek we will go! 5 little Jeeps cross the creek and up 13 to trail 16 we go. All is good till the end when no one can crawl up then last obstacle and all must go around. Up on top a familiar noise I hear and to my worst fears it is a popped U-joint in the rear drive shaft, a better look shows the tab on the yoke is actually broke my on board mechanic to the rescue! Oh no now the XJ has broken exhaust what ever will we do, Jack fixes her up and its all good...Yey! What a day we all say so up too the staging area it is all we can take.
We still had a great day no matter stuff happens and everyone made it home safe and sound....next time this ride will be in May!
P.S.-- I am seriously considering the new name Carnage Queen now.........
-
I'm definately "bummed out" that I missed this trip. Sounds like one right up my alley.
Jenn, I think you need to destroy more before changing your trail name ;) Don't rush to do so.
-
Had a great time, felt good to get the jeep out and wheel again! Thanks Jenn for guiding, it was a crazy day but thats what makes it fun and unforgettable. Was fun wheeling with all of you again hope to get out again sometime this year.
-
Sounds like a great trip, I wish I could have made it. When's the next one?
-
Had a lot of fun even with the front axle rebuild demonstration. Thanks Jenn for guiding. Thanks everyone for your help and I look forward to wheeling with you all in the future.
P.S. All but one had to go around the last obstacle.
-
I want to hear the story about the valve stem caps!
-
From what I heard today those valve stem caps turned into a brand new set of KM2's lol
wait who made it over the last obstacle? (i was under the jeep) Please tell me it wasn't Jack ....wait if it was him he would have already posted.
-
I just didn't want to hurt ur feelings... ::)
-
I know I am late posting this but hope you like them.
Not many pic’s cause the photographer was feeling under the weather and the jealous jeep went home early with a bent front drive shaft
(BAD JEEP)
