Western Maine invatational Weekend of 6-4-10

Mary and I had a great time despite the weather which was complete with Tornado warnings and alerts
While I was out Mary was unware and catching up on her reading

The trails were a bit on the muddy side but there was plenty of rocks around to make things interesting .
Doug and Jodi were our trail guide on the Med-Hard run as well as our hosts for the event.

These were the same area trails that the Bethel Jeep Jambore ran last year, definately worth the trip
I didn't even damage a tire

I was at the Bethel Jeep Jamboree last year. Had a good time running a couple of muddy moderate trails. We stayed at the Sudbury too.

Oops!

I realize now I meant tie rod, not drag link, btw...

I went a few years ago (2004) and it was a lot of fun... Haven't made it back again though.

I must have "Flexed" after those photo's were taken . I did notice it was not turining to the right to well on the way out of the woods...

I went with the Rugged Ridge kit . Kit looks beefy enough and came with new ends , castle nuts and cotter pins.
