you photochoped that pic jon!!! WTF? lol, that sucked man...so embarassed. (spell) man that trip poped my cherry for sure. here are the pics of the damage.

the pic above with the 3rd gen (MINE) in the hole is when decided to go through the puddle cause the "stick"said 10 inches maybe...well the end was hollowed out by BIGFOOT or somone on 44's! needless to say a bit of muddy water came in and soaked the interior a bit, DESTROYED my Altenator and hurt my ego.



back half of the stock skid...


why the clean batt? took me 3 to get home!


my dead alt! (damn mud boggers!)


finally dead on the road before i bought 2 more batteries! lovely corn!

Sweet picks. I am kinda interested in the red rigs snorkel. Is that bad boy home made? If anyone has any good/cheap plans on how to make something similar please post. Any altenative to an Arb $300 snorkel is appreciated.

If you didn't break anything, then you probably didn't learn anything.

So here's my picures... the one's that were worth while. Only ended up taking like 30. And I don't know when I'd use one of these helicopters in an actual sentance, to I'm just going to randomly include them in my paragraph.

we started the morning off by trying to lock john in the john



got some poser shots before the damage



traversed muddy water



looked at big metal crap



and then watched john replace a birf cause he likes to break them.

I don't know why, but I always get the sense that John gets some sort of morbid satisfaction from seeing carnage on other vehicles.

John swapped another right side birf?

I see the youngins still don't believe in seatbelts.

Maybe this will help

Couldn't make it myself. I was out putting 5000 miles on my bike riding around out west.
