Fun Day at Reiter Trails with the North West Wheelers Jun 2007
The day started early with me waking up to fix my Jeep. I had suffered massive failure of my rear upper control arm mounts on the frame. Thus ensuing an all night work session at Tommybilt Fab getting the mounts replaced (Thanks Tom!!!!). Anywho, I arrived in the parking area at about 10am. Cody was there with some brake issues on his TLC. We bled the brakes and got him a little pedal. But it still wasn’t up to snuff.

Elbe Rescue Feb 2007
The longest rescue mission in the history of me.
(A lesson Learned)
