Default Zoe Fire Dept.

So the Zoe Fire Dept is having their benefit ride this weekend. Anyone going. I'm thinking about it. We were going to go to the Dirty Turtle but I just found out about this and would really like to see the trails in Natural Bridge.

We never did. I wanted to go but opted for the dirty turtle instead. I'm glad I didn't. I ended up getting death wobble twice 5 min from the house. I was able to get the trackbar tightened back up and we headed down. I didn't wanna risk driving on it for more than an hour.

The dirty turtle defiantly could use a few rain storms. It was a dust bowl. The creeks that are a few feet deep were dry as a bone. Still had a fun time. Almost ripped off my rear fender and bent up my rear brakeline pretty bad. Nothing catastrophic. Just need to fix it when I get a chance.

my track bar egged out too, i made a new bracket out of 3/8's plate on the axle end, then the upper egged, so i took 2 3/16's thick washers and welded them to the frame, so far so good. check your bushing too, one of mine went south and i had to replace it.

They went bad at the best time. I'm ordering new trackbar and the jks reinforcement brackets tomorrow. I'm not sure which track bars to get though. I like the jks and Teraflex. I'm going to talk to David and decide then. I love birthdays.
