Gibby's place

Last Sunday a bunch of us went to play after church at my property in Bonney Lake. 6+ hours to get 1.5 miles. Only 2 trucks didn't take a strap, or winch and they both left early. Thankfully one of them (Joe) left his truck up top which was critical to use getting out as noone was able to make the hill climb under their own power and I'd alread broken my winch pulling out a stuck Jeep!

Carnage included one driveline, my rear bumper - pulling out a Jeep, my lockers (OK, we just lost the electrical connection somewhere), and that was about it! The story of the day was mud, mud and more mud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took some video, but didn't do any vid caps or my write up yet. But if you'd like to see some streaming video, paste these into your web brower. It does require real player or a similar program that can play real player streaming video. You can get a free copy at www.real.com

I've heard of a few problems getting the URLs to work. You can get active links on our forum at www.faithwheelers.com. Click on the link to the forum and then check down in the event planning section.

I just looked at the last one with the stuck Wrangler. That was funny.

You would've been right at home since you have all of the above and nice big mud tires!

I stopped by your place on Saturday to see if you needed some help getting your rig fixed. I saw it all apart but noone was around.

I heard it's back working again.

You can sell it to someone else if you get a buyer. I'm gonna go with a Borla stainless system.

Hmmm, sounds awesome!

I was just wondering if you wanted a free replacement. I won't be using it.
