How do you break your lower control arms?

I think it was rear upper control arms. And, both of them broke at the same time!? They had to get creative to get it fixed on the trail. I wasn't on the run, but spoke to Matt shortly after. Sounds like Woody and Treeroot really helped get him going again with a sweet fix.

couple more from spike, and then led Moab Rim on Saturday, again great run no real carnage with a small group of cool cats

the white cruiser had a 4bt in it, super cool and his buddy had a mitsu diesel in his

Travis and Julie had fun coming up rim but were a little unnerved (my wheelstand on the devils crack going back down didn't help sorry)

They were fatigued, you could tell one was cracked for a while. I had meant to say Upper, but mis-typed

We had a great time!! Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.

BIG THANKS to Tom for helping me get over Vail Pass on the way home yesterday when the cruiser got a little hot!

We ran Chicken Corners on Friday and then we explored Archs on Saturday, including running Cache Valley Road.

A huge thank you to Woody, Mike and his father!!

On Thursday I gunned Poison Spider and woody lead the run. Going up the waterfall a 99 4runner owned by Matt from Book Cliff Cruisers broke both lower control arms at the spot on the first picture. Fortunately, woody had a welder, so I took the rest of the group up and Treeroot and Ken Davidson came along and helped woody weld and repair. The did it quickly and they all caught up with us on the overlook

Wanted to say thank you everyone that helped out on repairing the 4runner. The UPPER rear control links were the parts that failed because of fatigue. Have to run for now, will finish post later.

I made it in for two days.

FRIDAY: CHICKEN CORNER
Steve Crase led and I gunned. We had a great mellow day with a good group of folks.

SATURDAY: POISON SPIDER MESA
Daniel Markofsky led and I gunned. We had only 6 trucks total, so we took the opportunity to explore every option we could find.

I posted a more complete album here. If you were on one of these runs, check it out. I probably got a photo of your truck somewhere along the way.
