Cool. Have you guys been there before? What trails are you comfortable running out there? Where would you be coming from?
I may have to say I'm slightly tentative just because of all the work that's gonna be done to my rig next week. I should have it back by Friday night. I'll know more as the week goes on. If I have to I can hold off on a couple of things to make sure I have it back Friday so when can hit the trails.

Yeah, we went back in October for the newbie run. I believe we did 3s and maybe a 4.

Ok cool, there maybe another jeep out there with me who will probably only be comfortable running 3s and maybe some 4s. So we should be fine there. I'll hit you up as this week sometime and let you know that I'm for sure going. But pretty safe bet I'll be there. May just not have all my new parts on by then.

I'd really like to run some trails today but can't make it out today. Y'all have fun and take some pictures

Nice! Glad to hear you had a good time. Wish I could have made it out today. Hopefully I'm heading out there Sunday and with some luck could run door off. Fingers crossed.

Alright Texas Wayalifers, heres the link to the run out to Colorado and Utah scheduled for 2017. I think we can probably get a pretty good size run together between now and then. Let me know if you're interested so I can add you to the list.

I was going to try and go but picked my rig up today from the shop (5.13's installed) and now my front locker doesn't want to disengage the way it should. Pissed off doesn't begin to describe how I feel.

If you just got the gears done I wouldn't go wheeling if I was you till I've put 500 miles on the new gears and put new diff fluid in. That's after cleaning out the diff really well to get any metal shavings out of it.
It's just a guess but maybe there's some metal shavings keeping your locker from disengaging. You may wanna ask some folks on here if they have any suggestions about your locker. Sadly this is gonna be my last trip to hidden falls for a month or so. Things are gonna get crazy busy for me work wise till mid March. I'll try to post up more in advance next time and let everyone know I'm going if anyone wants to go.

Yeah I wasn't going to get crazy with it, just wanted to get the mileage on the break in out of the way and figured a trip to the falls would help. This is my second regear so I know how important it is to break them in and clean the diff out.
We pulled the diff cover and watched it engage and disengage. It's weird. It engages instantly but takes forever to disengage, and we had to get pretty rough with it. I ordered a new position sensor/plunger that should be here about the time I have to change the fluid.
Have fun today!
