Looks like a lot of fun. Be sure to let me know when you want to go again. If only I didn't have to work.:angry: Stupid Job!


BTW: Are those broken studs on the ground?

heh, i know the feeling, my work is being a pain in my side right now as well.


And no, those arent broken studs, it was some sockets that didnt fit. Luckly, only the tire came off, and the rim got a little scratched up.

Sounds like great excuse to justify getting bead locks.

It's not breakage. It's an upgrade opportunity.

atomicmecha

yup.


btw, i want to get up there again in a few weeks, but with a small group (3-4 people) to do some more mapping would you be interested?

The Red Rock Wrangler is mine. I didn't pop the bead, but instead broke the side wall.


So, new 35s are on the way. (Why spend a few dollars to buy new 32 inch tire when you can spend ten times that for new 35s on new rims. It's a Jeep thing and you all understand.)

By the way, if you guys make it up to Casparis in a few weeks to do some mapping, I have the USGS quadrangle maps for the area if you want to borrow them.

Heh, yeah, i understand with the tires. I wish i could get my 37's now, but oh well. The BB will look nice with the 32's on it now. I like how yours looked now that i've seen what the BB looks like in person on a set of stock wheels. So until my stock tires wear out, i'll probably stick to the BB and 32s.

And as for the maps, I already got a TOPO map of the area and the GPS program i use on my pda draws the paths on top of it. so one day, i might have all the trails around there mapped out. But thanks for the offer.

That looked great, I will make sure I get to the next meet. Wish I could have been there for this one.
