But if anyone asks, Bigfoot the monster intercepted us on the trail and hit my quarter panel with his claw

I also took the Krawlers out of hibernation for the run. If anyone was wondering if 35x13.50 Krawlers are really any cooler than 35x12.50 KM2's, the answer is......yes

went to my jeepin canyon just out of town, and it's had some serious flooding there, it was so washed out. it kicked my trash
i smashed my passenger mirror in. and turns out i need a new steering box. the one i have is only 5 months old. i stripped one of the bolt threads in the box. and i found my first big mud puddle today. about a 50 foot long one.

Right?! I theorize I was smashing into something else that I knew about and did not think anything of the additional noise. Diffs and sliders were bashing into things pretty frequently.
