Does anyone know of a recovery company that can get a truck towed out off a very steep hill?
Did your friends truck get recovered? That really sucks.

Ok so the rear is ready to go

The front is just about ready just need some ball joints for the new machined knuckles and a tie rod!!!

So if my wheels show up Friday like they are supposed to it will be time to swap some axles!!!

Also if anybody is interested in my current wheels and tires let me know otherwise they will be hitting Craig's list shortly.

Got some interesting photos while exploring north of the Sunflower Mine on FS201/Forest Rd 47, and the trails on the East side of 87 that lead up to the radio towers.

Cool patterns of fine dust on my wheels, like how it was diverted around the valve stem

Kind of sad seeing all of the burn areas but there were places where the fires jumped and still had some green. We drove down FR47 and found the big wedge of rock in a beautiful pine filled peak. Smelled like a lumber yard

Parked the bumper on the ground too. Time for a high clearance OR-FAB to match my front bumper!
