 This one is the URE thread!  rabbit 

Honestly, there's an 80% chance of rain throughout the morning and afternoon at Richland. Rain chance at URE isn't till the afternoon.

I still haven't been able to find out if I can go anywhere yet....

 In the cabin......  Duh.  Razz 


When I cut my pinch welds to make it easier to fold over, I went a bit too far on one of the cuts, which went right through the firewall.  I stuck a light inside where I thought the water was getting in, and sure enough, I could see the light on the other side in the fender well.  A generous amount of silicone RTV hopefully solved that problem.

trip recap:groupf of 5 trucks consisting of madtoy, dwc2134, myself, andy(red 1st gen runner) and dammit blue tacoma cat. first of all i don't know of pics so it may not have happened.  the oupost fixed their water leak...something about pinching a weld.  it was a little slick, we first ran dickey bell?...it took a few tries but madtoy and myself were victorious.  daniel was not happening, having never had issues with traction until i got here to n caro i was convinced i could pop right up it and well i didn't.  attempts were made by blue tacoma guy and myself.  we just turned around.

It was actually a lot more fun than the usual.  When its dry, it can get boring.  Wet added a whole new fun factor.  Even going up the reverse side of Daniel was interesting in the slop.

The first ledge of Daniel looked to be about a foot deeper than usual.  Even dry it should be tougher than normal.  Next time.....

Sorry I missed this one....but not too much!  Until I either, get new (better) tires for mud/slick slopes, or a winch, or both, I think I'm better off on dry days!

As the first ledge of Daniel keeps getting deeper/taller, it'll be interesting to see what it looks like around the end of November.
