I had a great time meeting everyone.  You guys are a great group and Charlie and I felt lucky to have the chance to join you all.  Thanks for the good times and hope that by now, most everyone has made it home safely.

Sorry to hear about your break down. It's too bad it did not happen earlier as a number of us live in Salem and would have been glad to help. Heck, I bet we could have even rounded up a vehicle for you to drive with all the extra Zuki's most of us have.

Some of the other problems seen makes the valve stem that I tore up on my rig seem pretty minor.  :D

Glad everyone made it through though.

Good to here every one made it home safe, including us. Monday I drove the FJ60 into work to check it out because the rear suspension was still locking down even with no weight in it, lets just say holy s***. The problem was that both of the front spring hangers for the rear axle were nearly ripped off of the frame. The bottom rivets ripped out of the frame and the hangers pivited on the upper rivets on the side of the frame causing it to buckle. After looking at it rust is the root cause. So I have some cleaning, cutting, plating and welding in my near future.

Well, if that is the case I'm glad your axle didn't fall off.  :)

New kicker 2 later and we are good to go. (Thankfully found one from a local guy who didnt finish a project)

Old kicker had noticeable wear and tear, T-case was almost 20 years old.

Here is the culprut, (coupler that runs between kicker 2 output & yota input)  :-X

I'm home... After 3100 miles of storm dodging routes and a great time, my 'new' 2000 4 door made it home with no issues. The first 450 miles lasted 12 hours and was exciting to say the least... the first 50 of it was the normal central Oregin snow/gravel we had been in all weekend, then it got exciting... tossed her into 4x4 and kept rolling for the next 400miles before I finally saw a break in the snow somewhere in north Utah the folowing day. From that point we were planning on heading north into Idaho and Wyoming for some scenic back roads, but after a check of the weather (more snow coming) and traffic (I-80 closed west of Cheyenne) we decided to head out of Salt Lake south ahead of the snow. Our luck turned due to timing, putting us traveling behind one front and just in front of the next, and we were able to cut north in Denver and head up to I-80 in Cheyenne. Wed night landed us in Kansas at Robi's house so we could hang out and tell them about our trip over a few cold ones..... 6 days from the time we pulled out of Fullers driveway to meet up with everyone for the fall adventure, I had crossed 11 states in 3100 miles... Good Times Indeed..... 

Thanks Eric, for another great adventure. I had a great time with old friends and new. The fall Classic once again was a great time.

PS I will post up some pics monday...

zig- I feel guilty that I did not make it.  I live so close compared to you, and as much help as you have been with my project.  As soon as you/we get dates for next year, let me know.  It takes a fair bit of time for a pup like me ( 13 years on the job ) to get time off.  When I am an old timer I will be able to get any time off, but for now it is tough.  A bunch of us Medford Firemen will be there through the month of May killin rabbits, yoties, squirrels, and drinking too much, but we will all be on quads, not zuks, so it is not the same.
