Walker Valley Run 9/25/10

[01whiteXJ]

We got jonesinxj Border Dave and my self out there. We also saw the Timber Tamers in all CJ/TJs.

Did upper mainline/express way, some stuff in the skills area, and part of lower mainline (these are the old names I think).

Damage:
Jonesinxj break line leak someplace and a spring clip
01whitexj track bar bushing is toast, cat keeps getting flatter
Border Dave gets the grad prize with a side wall cut on a BFG ATs that deflated the tire fast

John,

Thanks for posting up.. I think you were the only one to take pics. I had a absolute blast!! Except for driving home with only rear brake:sure:

Cant wait to do it again.

BoarderDave,

Thanks for coming out. It was a pleasure meeting up with you and wheelin with ya. You're more than welcome any trip (even though you have a frame):laugh3:

Wish more people could have made it out. It was a perfect day up there.

[Border Dave]

That was a blast! Thanks for having a TJ guy out. I don't know how I would have made it through those trails without you guys and your XJs to pull me through. ;)

Apparently Costco isn't carrying my tire size anymore in BFG ATs (33x10.50R15). They had a couple left over in their Anchorage store and are going to ship one of them down here for me. They should have it here by Friday.
