Glad you guys had fun. I love the Ranch. Still need to learn more of the trails.
Wish I could have made it...

Buckethead, what happened to the Jeep to make the steering wheel off. Did you hit the tie-rod?

I guess wheeling it hard and things just getting moved around. I couldn't find anything bent so I recentered wheel in potosi and its been driving fine. maybe I need a stronger something.

The little one spent the next day talking about Beth. I think Beth has a groupie.

I prolly should have gone with the easier group since it was their first time.

No problem. It did you stop you from sliding any further though. Its cool how rain can new obstacles in the trails. I almost couldn't get up that second hill at Gobbler's Gulch (wish I had lockers).

I was in the mild/moderate group w/ Jeeper and Suz. About 5 min into the 1st trail one of the XJ's stopped running. He went into it knowing he had a bad coil wire. He was pulled back to the lot. Then at lunch the rest of the XJ's left for a different group and we picked up a 3 wheel drive YJ.

We did Gobblers Gulch at the very end. Not all attempted the hills, but I had to do them all. Didn't have a problem w/ any of them. The YJ lost a bead 1/2 way up one of them, so we had to pull him to the top and change it up there.

My steering wheel started the day slightly cocked to the right but now its slightly to the left. I guess it doesn't have a center point.

Next time you visit the dealer, you might want them to check out the clock spring. I have the same problem and I know that my clock spring is bad and the dealer wants to replace it but I just have not setup the appointment.

How does the clock spring have something to due with the steering wheel be off center? Its a bunch of wires for the horn.air bag and esp. I think its my front trac bar from people I have talked to. I already went through one due to it falling apart. All my lights were going crazy.
