Went to Rausch Creek in August with my brother in law.
Watching all the Jeep groups go through much faster than I would go left me grateful for having some else to wheel with that is in no hurry. Less likely to break something that way too.
Crazy how much damage the rains last year did to some of the trails, yet the lack of rain this year meant even the Mud Pit on the power line trail was low.
Frog Hole was still quite full (no photo) so I did not partake![emoji51]
We camped in the Weiser State forest afterwords, very nice and only a few dispersed sites in the Haldeman tract.

It rolled around the neighborhood today after about a month of sitting on jack stands.
New upper control arms, lower control arm bushings, one new front cv shaft, new front wheel hubs, rotors and pads all the way around, new tie rod ends, and new lower ball joints.
I also put new needle bearings in the front axle (the bearing right behind the seal), as well as new axle seals.
I need to bleed the brakes, and get an alignment.
Then it should be good to go [emoji1303]

Drove up the 51 today (doing 80) and saw the infamous Reloder H3. May have tapped the brakes a little hard and swerved a bit to admire the rig as I drove by in my work truck (and earned the finger from a Civic). Good looking rig!

Took a Sedona Trip
Unfortunately, I thought it would be easier to go DOWN Schnebly Hill Rd. Next time I will be going up the route. Was still a great drive with amazing views of Sedona, AZ.

Had my Rancho leaf springs re-arched and added a leaf to level out the rear. Finally no more sagging (it only took me 5 years or so to go get it done)!!!
Also replaced the HVAC harness and resistor due to it burning out again

I had my Rancho springs re-arched as well. Few months later they dropped an inch and a half. Wish I had found someone willing to do a SOA locally.

Had a new windshield installed..I had a minimum of 6 cracks in the old one. Called a small local shop near me, I drove it up, he had it back to me less than 2 hours later. I love a new clean windshield.

I actually had them bring the rear up a bit higher then the front to account for that exact reason, hopefully it doesn't sag as quickly as it did before.

After breaking 7 CV axles (2 original 2006 120k miles & 5 A1 Cardone). Being stubborn and a little cheap, I kept utilizing Amazon lifetime warranty of the A1 Cardone. But after breaking 3 of them in 2 days I finally had enough and spent the money on AC Delco OEM ones. Hopefully they will hold up better.

I did something similar to you, maybe went through 3 "cheap" CV's and then went back to OEM... haven't been through an OEM unit since!

Same here. Awhile back I bought some cheap cardones to swap in while I had new boots put on the oem cv's, plus I wanted spare cv's, but quickly realized cardones are not at all close to oem and swapped it back out before ever trying to take them off road.
