@DomOfTheDead @MonPetiteShoe thanks guys! I’ll let you know if I need a hand - maybe on stab day.

I have a spare t-case all torn down and cleaned, a full rebuild kit plus fresh OEM hardware and brand new output flanges on hand, a spare H42 to build the case onto, a clutch kit, a spare resurfaced flywheel, a rear main seal, a brand new oil pan and gasket. Gonna do it all while I’m in there.

So really the next steps are assembling the output shaft, building the t-case guts onto the H42, and then it’s time to start tearing junk out of my truck and swapping the new stuff in.
Sounds like I know who to call when its time for questions on drivetrain work.

Hello Joe and All,

I would like to join a group B, if you still have spots, otherwise A, to complete my first run.

I’m a beginner on a stock 5th gen 4Runner TRD Off-Road, with K2 tires. Hope this will work.

Really enjoyed meeting more of the club last night! Stoked to hear how the treasury is being used. Even more excited for this run than I was previously. Definitely planning to stay out of that hole that ate @Notyourmomslx450’s tire :)

I’m an early riser, so planning to show up for group A & will happily hang back for B if it looks like we’re putting too many rigs on at once.

Looks like a water obstacle actively catching those not taking the right line or enough clearance.. just something to be prepared for :) Looking forward to hanging out w/ everyone!!

Is it still water (and not ice)? This is our forecast for this week...

@SaintAgatha it appears to be still water.. just noticed someone post about getting stuck today (~ 2h ago?) in BBO group on FB, figured i'd relay. I can't imagine this would impede the group w/ as many trucks as we'll have. I'll be roped/winched, expected many others to be as well & planned to support anyone who needs it

I'm not sure that was today. It was sunny up here and didn't start snowing until this afternoon. (In the guy's video it's snowing.) Could still be wet, though.

@DomOfTheDead where is that puddle?

PS @DanS I am not pulling winch line in butt ass cold weather so please plan accordingly. 🤣

Icy puddle is early on. I am planning on doing a depth check before traversing when we arrive

Like in the first bumpy uphill part, when you turn kinda left to go up?
