A little post Rubicon damage control - David showing up like a champ swapping out a rear axle shaft with a bent flange - thanks to Don who had a spare and everyone that pitched in. Great trip and great people as usual.

ah, so it wasn't trail bud. I thought MTG said it was Trail Bud in voice message to me asking for my spare steering box or perhaps visual voicemail f'd up the transcription.

Can't believe it's been over two weeks since I was kicking myself for not making it to Independence for the start of the Emigrant Trail trip!!! Rubicon looks so beautiful! On my bucket list for sure!

Amazing trip!! We had a great time and enjoyed meeting all of you and seeing familiar faces again! I'll post some pictures later this evening after I get them all downloaded.

Special shout out to the entire group on this run---yesterday towards the top of Cadillac Hill, our rig suffered a sector shaft failure. The entire group helped out in one way or another and we're very grateful. MTG, thanks a ton for bringing a new steering box up from Reno! Thanks to everyone for their help and patience, it was a long day, but we made it off the trail safely! And we still got a Rock Hard Wet Woody (or three), even though it was a bit late!
