| I hear there was a lot of breakage this weekend so post it up. Marshall snapped a axle, I cannot thank Big Poppy & Dustin, and ???? enough for all the help. I will let Big Poppy tell you about the, high lift jack, strap, and standing on the jeep part to get it off the mountain. I think someone has pics, can't wait to see them. Dustin stayed and helped Marshall in the barn get the C clips out so he could get the remaining axle shaft pieces out so the new one would go in. ??? (can't remember his name) was kind enough to go the base of the trail and load Marshall's jeep on his trailer and get it back to camp. This is what makes this sport so special, everyone is helping each other. Thanks Guys!!!!! | |

I would like to know this as well and hopefully someone has pictures. I assume the driver and passenger are OK? The only damage I sustained was a dented rear bumper. I was set to buy an after market bumper, but managed to pick up a stock one last night from Chris Coppola. So I will hold off and maybe invest in some skid plates soon. | |

| atxengr (sp?) layed his on its side on the last trail of the day. I didn't get pics, I had headed back in to camp (it was around 5pm or so), looked like the only damage he sustained was he crushed the passenger side rear corner of his hard top, which sucks, but it could have been worse. | |

| Minor for me...some rock rash here and there, a nice scratch in the pass door from an friggin inconvenient stump I side-swiped (can buff out) and a ripped drive shaft boot (that I'm going to see about getting replaced under warranty! hehe...) Think the dealer will put 2&2 together when they see the rash on the underbelly?!? hope not! | |

It all started after Renee left to get the BBQ, Marshall started acting funny and he got this look in his eye( Evil Look) and before I could stop him he smashed the gas like it was a spider and pow said the rear axle! The other Jeepers gathered and formulated a plan, someone said we need a HI-Lift jack-2straps and some oil for the tire??? The only thing they forgot was the 280# sucker to stand on it to keep the Redneck C clip Eliminator from coming off and oil the tire so it would not catch on fire. There I am, the big ol sucker!! I am sure Marshall is telling a different story but that's how I remember it | |

Tony- that would be a waste of time. They can not replace just the boot, the entire shaft has to be replaced. But its pointless because you'll just tear the boot off again when you flex it again. Geo has been running without the boot for over a year (so have a lot of other guys). Its definitely something you don't need to worry about immediately. I'm so shocked that I still have not ripped mine. | |
