we need a trip report of the shenanigans
Didn't even get out of bed yesterday, apparently all of Clemson got sick and I thought I avoided it. Guess not.. but here ya go.
Not to much to report but here but we left Bilo at around 3:30 to meet up with Gilbert, Chad, and John who left around 12. Got to Gulches and all checked in, once we headed to our campsites and dropped the gear off we hit the trails. We ran TnT rock garden first, followed heart breaker out and then to radical ravine. Mason met this guy Jake on Jeepforum in a pretty sick LJ and he came out and wheeled with us. He flopped on the right side of Radical Ravine and it was the most graceful flop I've ever seen. He only managed to tear his top an inch and got wedged on a tree. After that we hit Palmetto Crossing where I broke a front 30 shaft on the 2nd ledge. Thought it was my locker at first because my driver side stopped pulling a couple times but who knows. I haven't taken the diff apart yet, planning on it Thursday. We rode a little more then went back to camp and ate. After that we hit the trails again, hit skinny pedal then TnT again. Quinn kersploded a 30 ujoint and sent sparks flying. Then Bert pulled a stud out of his housing on the left side of the rock slab and it pulled the 3rd out of the housing. After that Gillis Chad and Bert ran up to Shipwreck and ran that. Bert came back from there with a broken airshock and a twisted axle housing. Not sure if he did it on Shipwreck or on the way back somewhere. Next day ran about everything there and no one broke anything major except Gillis blew his 4th transmission in the JK. Chad busted his tcase linkage but I think that was it.
