Here is the result from the loose pinion. The whole gear set needs replacement.

I went to San Diego last week on vacation and I figured that while I was there I'd re-gear my Rubicon. I had a shop install 4.88 gears and chromoly rear axles. I drove around, did some heat cycles and eventually headed home to Reno. On the drive home I could hear a whine, kind of like the...

I was ambivalent about the JL at first, but it is such a vast improvement over the JK that I feel that I just have to have one. Not sure when that will be, though. I'm liking it; thanks for the ride-along.

I went to Death Valley for a few days of exploration, and one of my goals was to take some pics of the Jeep in the Canyon. Sadly, I have no photographic skills and failed miserabley. I did salvage the ride with a video though, so if you have some patience, here's about 5 minutes of a drive...

What a great thread! There were some seriously cool pics, and it goes to show Wayalife is comprised of many interesting people. My job is nowhere near as exciting as many of these, but I really like what I do - write code for slot machines. And, I can see my Jeep from my window! Yes, us...

Ack! Extra Pyramid Lake shots.

Lost Road Part III. (Last one, I promise!) Now that I've found the lost road, it's time to move on. I guess I know where I am now :-) That's a thermal plant in the distance. They generate electricity from the heat in the ground. This part of Nevada has a lot of thermal activity. That...

Lost Road Part II Still searching for that lost road. I think I'm close though. That's looking west, way into California. That could very well be Mt Shasta. For the way back, I took video. I think this is actually pretty cool. Let's see if I can embed a YouTube video...

There was a track I had ridden years ago that I could never find again. I wasn't sure exactly where it was and I knew it wasn't on any maps. Today was the day I was going to find it. On the way to Pyramid Lake. First view of Pyramid Lake. The overflow from Lake Tahoe flows into the...

I agree. Totally. Nothing beats a good map. I prefer Benchmark maps and don't bother with Delorme. Read about places and if you find something exciting, try to find it. Even if you don't find what you're looking for, you won't be disappointed. You can pretty much cover the entire state on...

Grand Staircase Part 2 View from fancy rock. There's a Jeep there somewhere! Roof of the fancy rock. It's hard to tell, but those rock segments look like they're just glued in place. I'm glad it's not winter, as I'd hate to have one crashing down on me. Well... that's it. I'm just...

I rarely travel with a plan or a schedule. This day found me near Big Water, Utah. This greets you soon after you start the trail. Half hour into it. Awesome. Climbing. Over to the other side. The road is getting more fun. Getting dark so I figure I should pick a place to camp...

I found myself on the Extraterrestrial Highway in Nevada. Scary sign when you're driving a JK. You can make a wrong turn and end up in a place you probably don't want to be. I love Nevada's wide-open spaces! I could feel the hair raising on the back of my neck! :brows: The Alien...

Just a day ride starting out of Dayton, NV, near Reno. First climb out of Dayton Heading to Como mill Como mill. What's this, a rock tumbler? Is this new ice or still from last year? Nice climb to an abandoned cell tower. Inside the abandoned cell tower. Looks like there was once...

Going from this: To this: I'm looking forward to being warm and dry :brows: I'm also looking forward to learning all that I can and contributing where I have any expertise.
