wow what a trip. lots of fun & carnage, but every rig drove onto the trailer or home under their own power.

carnage report in chronological order:
DAY 1
cora- rusty CJ frame, rear spring hanger tore out, welded back in that night.
Erik- pinched off brake line on hill climb, rolled 50\' down trail and into woods before stopping  installed pinched off line and wheeled the rest of the weekend.
DAY 2
Smike- wheel bearings bad. he bought new ones and installed them.
Erik - cracked T5 tranny case, did nothing and kept wheeling.
Nick - sheared bolts on steering gear box, cracked bracket and ear. someone from another group had spare bolts for gear box, we installed them and strapped box back to frame.
Nick\'s Dad- broke axle, swapped in new one.
Smike- electrical fire, self extinguished
DAY 3
erik - cracked tranny started to complain. added IV of gear oil to vent hole.
Nick\'s Dad- rolled his ZJ. we roled it back over, added oil and  tranny fluid, motor started and drove back to trailer. pasenger side A pillar crushed 3 windows popped, driver totally ok.
