Right then, so I'm talking to Matt the other day while he stops by on a weekend home from Chicago. I don't remember how or when the conversation got to summer, but it came to me that summer is half over. My boat has not even been uncovered. My jeep still has mud from April. What is going on and where did it go???
Well, since you are asking.....
This is an older one from New Years Day at Hannibal Rocks. My son, Tommy Carline, took his Jeep out for it's inaugural run. It was a messy day with icy trails, lots of MUD. The Jeep did great, suffered a little body damage, I think my little 14 year old learned alot about driving that day...and that we needed to add lockers and gears!
Here is an older video I stumbled across the other day. This is of the technical course at the Top shop challenge at Hannibal Rocks in 2007. The sound seems to be a little off, but it's still fun to see.
a few video's from jeep jamboree at smorr in springfield in 2008, make sure to scroll down and checkout the dropoff on Doe Skid. Video never does it justice, but it's STEEP.
Ahh, the junk I drag home, for some reason I felt the need to buy yet another YJ, my original intentions where to buy it, take the top off and put it on Tommy's Jeep, and sell it. Well after talking to Tommy last night, he decided he want a Black top, not a khaki top....guess I'll just build this one too then....

Bill lost all movement form his 1997 TJ. We tore down the rear axle to find an ARB housing that had broken away from the ring gear flange. We were suprised as this was a failure we had yet to see.
