[THERE IS AUDIO SO PLEASE BE PREPARED.]

Here is a video of the last weekend in September.  Hooked up with a customer of 2TM's who just got his Jeep JK done 2 days before.

THERE IS AUDIO SO PLEASE BE PREPARED.



Hope you enjoy it and keep looking for more.

For the color tour trip?  I have a potential member asking me how long the actual trail ride is going to be.  An hour, hours, all day etc.

His wife hurt her back recently and is trying to decide wether or not to do the trip.  If they are going to drive all the way to Gaylord and then hit the trails they are afraid it may be too much on her back.  Are the trails very bumpy or bobble head like, or are they smooth?  (like the Mounds entrance or not?)

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have never done this trail run either.

Thanks and I look forward to your replies.

***FOUND***

Title says it all.

I am looking for front axle shafts from an 80's Scout Dana 44.

Thanks,
Anthony

During the rescue I was told my front tires quit turning.

So I just started washing the Jeep and I found this......





These are preliminary pics of what I think is the reason I had such a hard time crawling out of the hole.  //www.whatliesbeyond.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=238

We also think the axle shaft on the passenger side is broke inside the tube.  We won't know until we open it up.

So I went out to Mt. Morris to my buddies property to wheel.

Nothing much.  Nice track for the quads and the dirt bikes, a little water hole.

There was this one spot that they nick named the ditch line.  I found out why.  Looks are deceiving.

So a chain, a winch and a snatch strap later it finally took 2 Jeeps, my 1 Ton Doge Mega Cab Dually and my 9500ti winch to get me out.

Don and Eli gave it their best shot.  Don broke a chain, and Eli lost his winch.  Finally Jeff, Eric, and my wife pulled me out.

Thanks Jeff & Eric from 2 Track Minds Offroad and to Don for having us out to his property.

Here are some pictures of the adventure.  Video is coming tomorrow.

LOOKS ARE DECEIVING:

So here is the story.  I had this idea of putting some video cameras on the ZJ and the best place to put them was under the Exo-Cage.  Except for one and that was just for a different view.  I placed 3 cameras around the ZJ as a trial.  I used generic low end cameras just for testing purposes.   Next time I will hook up the audio and put a few more on like underneath and such to get some different views.

Here are some videos that I was able to finish.  I had to sacrafice quality to get them uploaded anywhere.

I will have more coming soon.

#1.  Going through the water in the Scramble Area cautiously.......




#2.  Running Around




#3.  Small Rescue



There are more to come.

Thanks for looking and enjoy,
Anthony

Video is coming soon, a lot to edit and put together.

Enjoy;

Off of Hill and Center about 9:30am.  It was in the parking lot at the Cemetary when I drove by on my way to Muffler Man to get the cut-outs cut out.

I think it was Alice's Jeep but not sure.

It had a "What Lies Beyond" sticker on it.

Anthony

They are in the Pictures and Videos section.

We had a blast and look forward to the next one in Indiana in September.

I have also posted up all of the pics from the last few shows on our site as well.

The Mopar show is coming as quick as I can get it loaded to the site.  And Alice we will be posting your build up as soon as I catch up.  Sorry for the delay.

Thanks for looking,

While at the Truck & Jeep Fest in Canfield Ohio, Jim Allen and Denis Snow from Off-Road Adventures Magazine stopped by and asked if we would be interested in doing a photo shoot.  Of course we said yes, we would be honored.

Here is a pic of our way out to the shoot.  It was in a remote part of the fairgrounds designed specifically for the magazines to do their photos.



At the shoot:







Gary showed up with his Monster Bus and Kent from Peterson's to do a shoot.  I convinced Gary to let me crawl his tire.  The grass started to give but I got up pretty far considering.

Denis told me if I made it up that I would have to leave it there so he could get more shots.





I had a blast.  Once in a life time opportunity.  The pictures if picked will show up in the issues between November 2007 and January 2008.
