    Yeah, you could ditch the sway bar for off-road. But it was probably good you had it driving cross country.

    I had stubby wrenches. Maybe we don't have to carry more, just coordinate better in the days leading up to departure from home.

    10:30 is way too late to start drinking beer when camping.

    Absolutely. I was referring to a work day, of course.

    Makes sense.

    Speaking of working, I should have taken longer off after the trip, like at least a year.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the porta potties. I thought they would quickly get nasty but I think so many of you were shitting in your fancy toilets that it helped. Even on Saturday they were still fine.

    Felt like I was one with nature too.

    Except for the ones near the leadership campfire the porta potties are always super nice

    the main ones though… :puke:

    After sway bar debates and research, I believe no front with a good rear could be the best answer.

    I had to remove the front go accommodate the LT. For those that have front, I think travel is better off-road, removing back. But on road, the stability would be nice.

    I was thinking the same thing. But rather than beer lunch, we call it mimosa brunch

    You just need to learn to be more resourceful. You could easily pound a screwdriver in next to the head to keep it from spinning. I mean, sometimes you’ve gotta sacrifice a tool, but it gets it done. As they say, in order to make an omelette, you’ve gotta break a few eggs…
    With everyone being prepared and all the tools, who actually put in any work wrenching? Oh yeah. That was me. Funny thing, as cool as @Mr.bee ’s vice bench was, it never got used. Don’t worry tho Casey, the conversation qualities alone made it a worthy carry, and for that; we thank you

    I feel like there was a bit of help, but maybe I'm remembering poorly. That happens. I do remember changing diff oil in a parking lot trying to limp my gears home. That was probably a waste of time.

    I think I missed something. Did you do that much damage? I saw you thought you may have bent a rear axle.
