I finally got my new upper a arms! I know they're red and they stand out, but they're not for looks. There are a few reasons I needed these. The non serviceable ball joint on them was shot. The new one comes with a Moog, serviceable and replaceable heavy duty ball joint. They also have better strut spring clearance and a better ball joint angle for lifted libertys, which results in longer ball joint life.

Beautiful Weather
I am so thankful for all of the opportunities that I had to go wheelin with family and friends this month. And also very thankful for the beautiful weather! Here in Arizona we have to take advantage of the perfect temps before the summer comes. So...every weekend this past month we went on a trip. Three of those trips were to Butcher Jones, one at night. So here are a few pics of those trips in one post.

Sunflower Mine 09
On January 3, 2009 we went Sunflower Mine to run the loop. Yeah, I know we went on that one multiple times last year but it's my favorite one and what better way to start off the year.

Reggie's Ram's Rack
Well this is Reggie's spare tire holder with the gas rack on it, finally done except the paint.
I like how he wrapped his tow strap around it until he gets his toolbox.
Looks like the next fabrication project is gona be the rear bumper. He already took off the bumper, hitch and rear sway bar because it was dragging in the dirt and not getting much flex in the rear. Oh and...the lift has been ordered.

A Day of Firsts
I'm gona start off by saying how proud and happy I am. Proud because of how well my family did their first time wheelin in their vehicles. Happy because of how much they enjoyed it. Happy for them because I know that feeling when you put it in low range and attempt your first hill climb and you don't know if what you're doing is right because you're looking at the sky across the front of your hood and the adrenaline is pumping through your body because the feeling is so new and when you finally arrive at the top and are able to see landscape instead of clouds you get that wonderful feeling of accomplishment and you want to find a new hill and do it all over again. I know they have the bug now for one little reason...they're already talking about upgrades! Butcher Jones can do that to you. My dad Gene is in the 07 Wrangler, my brother Reggie is in the 99 Ram, my sister Sandra is in the 69 Suburban, which had a manual transmission, good job Samo, and my Brother in law Andy and I were behind the lens. He's gona make a dvd of the trip. Andy's good at that stuff. I wish he could come on all the trails with us! Here's some pics of the trip, I hope you enjoy.
