I got lost! Stopped just for a minute to get a sandwich out of the cooler and I guess in my rush to catch up I turned down a road called "Bucktown Trail" instead of Bucktown Road.

I turned around quickly when I saw a sign on an old ratty trailer that read "Turrists Keep Out" by the time I got back to the right road, I must have been out of CB range. I though about continuing on and tryin to catch up, but wasn't 100% sure of the destination.

Bummer .. if you went up Old Bucktown you would have caught up easy. We probably spent over an hour trying to get everyone through the gorge we got stuck in during the first outing.

I got a nice wake up call form Tinman with a problem. He said he was barely able to steer. I headed over to his place to inspect. And found his JKS adjustable trackbar snapped in two. Luckily he had the stock one in buried in his closet and we put that thing on after some wrestling with the two bolts.

I didn't get that many pictures as I was in front most of the time.

Sorry AU94 you got lost. I tried to stop at times to make sure we had everyone. Didn't realize you stopped for a munch. We'll get back up there soon. It's close enough.

I will say that JKS is sending him a new one free of charge. And the break did NOT even happen on the trail. It happened as he was making a right turn into his parking lot....

Here are my pictures that I took:

A few highlights....

As Dstack mentioned yup I now have two pieces to my JKS track bar. I was told by JKS there was a new design from the one I had to the one that will be arriving to my door step shortly. The one I purchased was that of there early/first design. This isn't the first company I have heard this happen from. I know a few companies have had to redesign these. I made the call asking about the warranty policy. I barely even get past the words it broken and they where already asking for my address. This along tells me I will be ordering there control arms.
