I put some more pictures on the club website. Anyone see them yet? I still have a good collection of photos. Takes time to get them up and rolling when you have a back log.

I saw some eagles at Core Creek park over the weekend. One bald Eagle flying around and two young eagles perched on a tree top next to each other. Pretty cool for around here.

I am getting cabin wheeling fever... Your right about February sucking big time. It is just to cold for my old bones to get out and play in the water and mud... Speaking of mud; my throwout bearing is starting to sound rough. It is looking like I need to throw a tranny party to replace the clutch and bearing. It was a mud hole on Devious Mount road that I fell into four years ago that violated my clutch. I hope to have Jeanne take plenty of picture during the operation to share on the Tech section.  Two weeks ago it was both unit bearings...Whats next? BTW: I am going to venture into replacing a D30 crush sleeve with a pre-load spacer and shim kit. This should be real interesting... |

This whole year sucked so far. Need new shock bushings, sway bar frame bushings my tailgate hinge is wearing out and rattles like hell on every bump. Already replaced my upper control arm bushings on the front diff. My u joints in my $300 driveshaft are making noise. The front pinion bearing must be bad because you can move the yoke around. All this and I only have 36,000 mile on the d**n Jeep. And I almost forgot I'm freaking broke.

WOW some more good news. I just found out Energy suspension has an ebay store. I ordered sway bar and track bar bushings for $38. All my Jeep parts money comes from selling other things on ebay. Next thing Rock Krawler adjustable upper control arms and yes on ebay $143 with the abuse proof lifetime warranty.

Funny story about wheeling in February. Back in the day, there was a wheeling spot called little mill. I was out with a friend and decided to cut threw the area. Went into the second big hole near the entrance and bam I'm suck. Fortunately there was some one on the other side of the hole willing to pull me out. I climb out the window onto the hood and I'm lying there trying to hook up the strap. When.....you guesed it head first of the hood into the 32 dgree water. When I surfaced the two guys pulling me out looked stunned. My buddy was laughing his @ss off!
