All I have to say is wow....
On monday a few of the SRD guys and I went out and hit axle alley. Amazing scenery and a bit more what I was expecting from Arizona as far as terrain. We went out to the desert and boy did we ever. I pull up and find 3 rigs with 40"+ tires and 3 sets of 35s. I knew this was going to be a serious trip. Serious doesn't begin to explain what we had to go through to get everyone through this trail. In the end we flopped a truck, broke a rear window, two birfs, one winch line twice, a rear window and a tailgate. It started raining 3/4 through with 2 water falls and one huge hill climb with Black Sheep, a 4Runner with 0 wheel drive and a Taco with 2wd all in a line. We didn't get home until 4am and oh what an adventure! It turned out that BlackSheep's rig was going to be transported to San Diego the day after I was planning on heading out so I offered to take it with me and it is finally home after a year of fabrication getting the 4Link worked out and (after some minor fixes) its going to be ready for Big Bear!

Here are the pics!
