Our Trail Leader was Lance. The Rovers were in the tail end of
others. 5 Rovers :
Right from the get-go it was pure Rockcrawling. Our first casualty was a Green Jeep (from Monterey, Mexico) with a front ARB problem. Air was blowing out the front dif vent tube, Ouch that bites. Everything went smooth and fun until right after the trail run we had a major failure on our Marsh Racing carbon Fiber Wheels... At the same time two of the front tires lost air due to the breakage of the bolts on the Beadlock. We attempted to repair them but they could not hold the air any longer. We put our spare tire/wheel and Bill's spare. Thanks, Bill. Of course at the hotel at night, we uninstalled the whole thing from D90 and along with the AR Steel Wheels (we had them with Goodyear MT's), dropped at the local tire store, "Expert Tire" (Tel: 505-524-1994). It was 7PM they were about ready to close the shop, however, they did a great favor and re-installed Swampers on Steel Wheels by the time we finished our dinner at 9:30 PM. What a great service ! |
