Just got word they were ok just shook up a little, and said that the buggy was ruined A pillar forward :dunno:

Needed a reason to redo old blue anyways so he can run a straight drive T-case.

Cole · Aug 25, 2013

One of the Worst crashes I have witnessed in person. Glad they were both ok. The front of the chassis is pretty smashed up but knowing Bryan Cole it can be fixed and better than before.

Time for some of these: http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/index.php/creeper-flanges.html

Or at least some arp studs :****:

They were arp studs, I broke it trying to pull chad up the top part of the rocks parallel with Marc's Wall, he flopped in a bad spot. Def gonna look into fixin it stronger.

And we went back and looked for the steering wheel where Chad said he saw it land (he was behind me) and we couldn't find it....so vice grips it is.

New wheel hub, run the stock 2 dowels, 6 arp studs, and then drill and tap the wheel hub for 4 more bolts. That's what I run

That's probably what will happen, Brett. Oh well, just glad it wasn't anything more serious.

We didn't even hang out at JohnG's camp, we rode non-stop til about 10 or 11 and left. I hope someone got Chad's roll off the Ledge of Faith on camera! The ole Sami took some licks rolling from the top!

Also, word of advice for anyone that considers the Econolodge hotel in Auburn...def leave your trailers at the park. Between my truck/ trailer, Chad's, Brandon Dillon's, and 1 or 2 more unrecognized truck/trailers, we got fawked this morning. Some cocksucker in a U-haul and a GMC Acadia blocked the entire exit....meaning we had a helluva time getting turned around in that ****-ass parking lot.

Truth!! Saturday morning trying to snake around the U-Haul, I snagged another guys trailer with the corner of mine, thought I was fixin to buy him a tire, somehow didn't rip it!!! Luckily they were very cool about the whole deal (thanks guys!).. Long story short - EconoLodge website very misleading about the parking available, and yeah thanks to however was in the U-haul blocking exit... Had to back out this am

Thought I put this **** like 3 pages back. My trailer and buggy stayed at the park the whole time. It is hard as hell to get out of.
