Eric_N and I went up to Rausch Creek offroad Park today, were supposed to stay all weekend but ended up having some issues with his truck and called it quits. Something went up in the charging system and we ended up only hitting part of the comp course and trail 1a. After raining all last night and today it was pretty went and nasty out there. i only got a few pics but will post more when our buddies send us more next week

The yoter dident even hit is first rock before breaking down :hehe:

That sucks, Looks pretty miserable there anyway. I'm glad it was sunny and warm when we were there a few weeks ago.

Yea, I really dont understand why the truck was acting up yesterday. According to the odometer, ive driven the truck 10 miles around our house and havent had a single problem with the charging system. As soon as I started it yesterday the battery and brake light were on, which means that there is a charging system issue. I kind of blew it off b/c ive got some other little issues with my damaged ECU. But when I hit the first rock on the comp course, I stalled it out and it wouldnt start, and I knew it was going to be a long day. Oh well, i did learn alot in the 2-3 hours I was at Rausch Creek, so when I go back in a few weeks I think I will be set.

I did find out that my truck will handle 1st and 2nd gear low range full throttle hill climbs and bowl assaults without snapping axles. Glad I got those longfield 30 splines in the front.
