Really great write up! So this was just a prerun? When is the official run? I would really like to go on a trip like this.

I was looking at some picture's for PAJ1978 a member here on FRF he had welded Gusset plates to his steering knuckles to beef them up, take a look at his build, the Knuckles look Bomb proof, or Nevada Proof

Sorry I always have called them Steering Knuckles, in your thread you call it the spindle, great run I miss Nevada, cheers

Thanks but I already have them haha. This is actually why I had an extra spindle/knuckle for ihavegas' wife to pick up.

looks like a great trip, dune camping shots looked pretty awesome too

Thank you sir!

Oh, come on Don. You should join us, we preran and marked hazards for 500 miles of pure desert goodness. It's going to be epic, I promise.

Does that include the spot where the desert ate a spindle? I want to drive slow through there...if I have to endure telling my wife to drive parts out to my in the middle of nowhere, you best leave me for dead. Haha..

lol, me too! My wife told me I'd be SOL.

We've got it marked on the GPS file. It's labeled "spindle breaker"

Are you going to be able to make the run Major? I know it's a bit of a drive for you.

Not gonna pay to offroad in the desert when I can wonder off and do a trip on my own with some peeps. There's also life besides offroading in life. I've got something up my sleeve anyways.... Sorry fellas

Yes, I'm planning on it as of right now. Shouldn't be a problem.
