I may have to bail on some (or all) of the trip.

I got replacement ball joints and things are not lining up the way I want. I was hoping to be done with the modifications a month ago and I'm still trying to finish maintenance stuff. When I finish the ball joints (which I didn't plan on originally), I still need to try to deal with the alignment issue. I have other new and untried things, just too much risk to attempt the Rubicon.

Heck, I haven't even gotten a 100% firm thumb's up that I even have the time off, yet.

Let's put it this way, if I hadn't paid my money already, I would definitely NOT be doing the Rubithon. Just too many things to do and far too many unknowns. At this point I'm hoping to just get things together enough to try the road trip part and think I'm going to have to give up trying the Rubicon.

Wow, just saying that is a huge weight off my shoulders. I'm so stressed between work, the house, the truck. Haven't slept well in weeks and that's got to be a big part of why I'm feeling exhausted all the time. Or it could be the last 2 weeks of 10PM nights in the garage after 11 hours days at work. I might be getting 4 hours of sleep a night anymore.

I'd like to shoot to just do the drive out to California. Maybe I can park at the trailhead in Tahoe and walk or ride in. I'm really stressed about the Rubicon being the shake down run for a ton of changes. Different suspension, transfer gears, tires and there will be no chance for me to get in a trail before. Probably have to go into work this weekend and I was originally hoping to get up to see Terry for the last piece of armor. That'll have to be put off until next weekend, which is the weekend before we leave. Just cutting it too close.

While there isn't much I wouldn'tdo for ya I'm not gonna make it easy and scratch your name off just yet. I truly understand the overloaded stressed out part. I hope everything falls in place and it works out for you!

Good news and bad news to report here...

Good news, truck ran well in Moab and I found only some minor things that need to be adjusted or changed.

Next good/GREAT news wait for it ..........Sharon drove all of Poison and Kane creek herself. We took the hardest lines we could find and she walked up them like a pro. Sure gave her some confidence in the truck and herself. We did not run Golden Spike (I believe if PSM) due to a time restraint.

Bad news,

I got a shot for my back on Thursday with mixed results. Started of great but soon went to heck, major pain returned. I took enough pain meds to knock out a small country with little relief. We came home Monday and discussed our options, so far they don't look good. I go in for a shot today at 4:00 pm and will wait for the results of it.

I have a appointment with a neurosurgeon on June 6th, that will tell me if the trip is on or ??? We both want to go and Sharon knows what this means to me but I am not stupid either............well??

If we do go I may be limited to my physical participation, moving rocks etc. would be a no no Helping others winch and or keep from tumbling would also be crossed of the list. I do not want to be THAT driver that never helped when needed but always needed help.

So............June 6th is the cut off date for me to decide one way or another. I will post ASAP with our decision as to what we are going to do. It hurts more to mae this decision than my back does right now.

Yikes, sorry Dave to hear this but I understand where you're coming from... yes at the least do the trip out with us then you guys should walk/ride with some of the other trucks in the club for the actual Rubithon..

Tom that's a bummer with your back, man, I sure hope you recover quick. And that's awesome that Sharon drove those trails, wow so cool..

 

[Uncle Ben]

yes sir

Sorry about that

Not too sorry it appears....still there!

I never bothered to put it down since I didn't think it was an option, you can certainly add it to mine. I always had the potty and WAG bags but I should have the enclosure by then.

You've got bigger problems if you need gloves and a toilet.
