What happened there Rock? I can't tell from the vid. All I see is lights going on and off and then a not so-controlled downhill off the rocks. LOL

Ed and I had to leave early, but I heard Rock busted a leaf spring and did something to the transfer case.

I was having issues getting fuel while going uphill and the second time it happened we couldn't get it fired, so I was being towed back, but on the steep down hill i decided it was better for me to roll on my own then risk rolling into Bob's tow vehicle since I had no power to the brakes or steering. I rolled a little to fast and stuffed the axle on that rock causing the leaf spring to break and pushing the driveshaft through the back of the transfercase and somehow breaking the steering column! Ouch doesn't begin to describe how the jeep or I feel!

Needless to say, I won't be wheeling anytime soon!

You did a great job on the vid and pics. Too bad you could not stay for the rest of the day. You would have had a great shot of me and Frank doing a dual pull trying to pull Rock up a steep loose dirt hill. I can say the dirt was flying high. Thanks again for the great vid and pics

Thank you guys! I appreciate it a lot! There's plenty more pictures to come with the next trail rides we go on! I wish we could've stayed, would've loved to get some pictures of you guys pulling rock!
