It will be the first time for it on a ride, I have tested out the 4x4, and it pulls great.

I would love to go, but unfortunately I have an obligation tonight. I'm itching to get the CJ on a trail to see how it does.

Sorry I was late. I talked to the guy that I got the front slip yoke from, and he said that he might be able to replace my u joint. He was suprosed that it came out. I had a blast, and Maggie had fun too. I will get that hill next time. Rob

Rear axle slid over on the small rock & then the front slid over to the right & skid plate was on the big rock & both rear wheels were about 6 inches off the ground.( puny tires ), co-pilot got out & built up rocks under rear tires & it backed off, thank you Lord.

Still trying to figure out why the rearend of the jeep went right so hard. Looked like I had a good line for a minute. Edit.. Looks like that muddy bank just pushed me that way.
