Caught the Bug
Yeah, he's not a fan of the heat and sand, (me either really) but he was a huge fan of the trails! The weather wasn't too bad either, it even rained twice!

We did Fins and Things, Hells Revenge, Poison Spyder, Top of the World, Metal Masher, part of Golden Spike and part of Sovereign 4x4. It was a full week, but plenty left to do next time ;)

How was Metal Masher and poison Spyder,any problems without lockers?

Looks like an awesome trip

Awesome trip! Crazy how that hood latch sheared.

It really was!
Great pics from Moab! Love the strap fix to get you there. How old was the latch that broke?

It's a 2009, so I assume about 10 years. I guess that's old enough!

Nope, no problems at all. The only place I got held up at Poison Spyder was in the loose sand in the rain and more skinny pedal fixed that :). Metal masher there was one climb I had to bump up, but so did my dad with lockers. We bypassed Rock Chucker and Widow Maker. My clutch sure wished I was geared better though lol
Great pics. We have those same hood latches and have been happy with them.
That's what I like to hear!

Hell yeah! Drives SO good!! 4.88 we're the way to go. Now for the break-in time. Here's a few quick shots after I got him back:

Congrats!! Looking great under there. Much less worries with that set up for sure.
Thanks! I'll definitely be more comfortable wheeling with this than the open Dana 30 with a bent shaft and stock grease-spitting drive line lol
You look all set, how the hell can o keep up now?

Who is o? ;)

I think skill level is my limiting factor for now lol
That's awesome. Looks great.
Thanks! I can't wait to go try it all out!
