We are all doing well. I had an issue with my e brake on my M416, thanks to john it was fixed in less tha 5 min. Doug had an issue with his torque converter, got it fixed. We are all in CO tonight. If your on facebook look up scott and I, we are posting up when we cross state lines and other interesting stuff. Scott has taken a bunch of pics already. We will be in UT mid afternoon sunday. We will try to keep you updated, if you want us to. So far the ride hasn't been to bad, we are all tired and going to bed.

Were you able to repair John or Edric? Is Kurt going back on the trailer or is he going to try to get it fixed in time to do a little more wheeling?

John had ball joints and shafts, swaped them out ON Rose Garden Hill. Edric joe and john slaped a cap in from the shaft john broke earlyer, and then tacked in in place to get him back. We all pitched in to get kurt going, 17 min to remove the ring gear and get rolling again.
Not sure if we will be able to fix kurt, no R+P in moab. We will see what happens.
