    Well we are partially packed. It's amazing the spare parts and crap we strap onto that thing. I mean, who carries a complete spare ignition system, knuckles, axle shafts, tons of bearings, ujoint, king pins, lockout hubs, ECM, fluids, etc??

    I think we are gonna leave on Saturday evening or Sunday morning early, but we are planning to hit a couple of sites and maybe do some expedition 'wheeling on the way down there.

    Our reservations at the KOA don't start until Tuesday....

        Have to work in the morning all week but thought I might come spend a day on the trail and an evening talking shop.

            Swing on down to the KOA.
            I think we have folks showing up as soon as late Monday/early Tuesday.
            Tucson folk should be there mid-day Wednesday.
            Everyone is welcome.

                      i cant get my rig to steer. it was a little slow when i parked it now i get nothing. i have changed the pump with a new one that has been on the shelf for a coule of years. i seem to get good pressure to the orbital but no matter how many times you turn the wheel it never moves. i did take the orbital apart a while back because it was slow. i didnt see how anything could wear out. if anyone has any sugestions feel free to share

                        only thing i can think of would be to break a line loose on one end of the ram see if fluid is actually moving.only way i know of to see if the pump or the ram is bad?!?!?!

                              Good times were had in Las Cruces!

                              The old Honcho performed amazingly well yet again. Ran over lots of rocks and lots of pavement to/from
