great friends. i remember when i got stuck and was left by myself. that shit sucks. luckally my friends realized i wasnt behind em and drove back to get me

 

[Beezil]

yeah, pretty stupid newbie mistake to make, but we've all made stupid mistakes haven't we?

yet another reason why hubs are a good thing!

a lesson learned from this might be to learn everything that there is to know on your jeep, and how to fix your own jeep on trail. Learn how to use tools, try to carry the essential tools, and essential spare parts, learn resourcefulness.

I read the whole thread, and it looks to me that alls well that ends well.

the guy got home, thanks to some cool jeepers......friends shouldn't exchange money on trail with friends IMHO, but those guys weren't part of the group, and went above and beyond the call.....200 bucks was a very generous deal.

rebel, read the whole thread.....he wasn't left on trail....he asked them to get going.

Good thing to keep in mind that you can't run the hub without the stub shaft in it. Now I know if I ever need to pull and axle.

good story, one that everyone should read, be prepared.

the thread ended in alot of drama, I hate drama.

I have tools, know how to use them.

One ton has tools and knows how to use them....

Onetonnage, I'm not gonna be your tool bitch any longer.

Farmer....

I'll remind you, I followed the bylaws carefully for the Moab event....

I had an "adequate spare tire" affixed to my jeep......just in case one of my trailer tires blew out.

spare tires are a waste of weight, space, and money.

Sean

I now have a hac-saw packed in my small box of tools I have collected for trail gear. Since no one there had one... or did they?? And 2 spare u-joints

 

[Beezil]

"I still don't have real mans hydro lines",

listen here, all my hydro line have always been aeroquip.....they were getting pinched, not blown....

also, on the tool thing......I carried them in moab, it was your turn in attica......


you let me down.

 

[Beezil]

doncha love how eagle refuses to acknowledge the fact that we're not running spare tires on naxja events?

 

[Erik]

That's why I like , we NEVER leave our friends behind. Uh, well OK, we did leave Beezil behind that time in Moab, but Beezil doesn't count as a "friend" does he? :dunno:

 

[Beezil]

I guess Gary doesn't like me.

maybe I should send him an Xmas card?

I like you, erik

don't ever leave me.

 

[Erik]

Oh, now I remember. You're our "special friend" :kissyou:
I think I'll leave now, thank you uke:
Have a nice weekend anyway.
