Texas Texas Jeepers!

[TJ Hunnicutt]

Well, I'm screwed for this weekend . The axle shafts I ordered came in damaged and I won't get replacements in time

So, now I'm stuck like this for another week or so...

Oh well, I really need to replace the ball joints and was going to go back and do that later...guess I'll get them on order.

Cool thing I discovered; I have the axle tubes sealed with some 2" pipe plugs that I had bought for another purpose. They work perfectly to keep out the junk while the axle shafts are not installed!

Have fun guys and get some pics/vids for us less fortunate folk.

We had 3 TJs and a JK on this run. @Bob in Texas LJ was still in the shop so he brought the JK and his wife. She wheeled the JK all day and did great for her first time driving.

Trails ran were FM TRO and No Name. On this outing we had @ErikOffroad @Kris M @Bob in Texas and his wife

There you have it, another awesome trip and group run at HF! Wifey had a great time and did an excellent job for her first ever wheeling run. Was nice meeting EricOffroad and hope he’ll be able to make another trip before he needs to move back north. b0xcar thanks again for letting us play follow the leader, great job with trail selection .
