I need the piece from the seat the piece with the bar and two bolts is on the floor. Ill run without it but id rather not.

I've got one. Picked it up for my new buckets but didn't need it on the Ram.  If I remember, I'll bring it. How's a 100 bucks for your gf's safety...

$5 and a beer? Installation extra.

Sounds good, think i can handle the install, or make her do it.

Up up and away

Food for thought: Jeep/ATV trails = body damage. 3 trucks today.

Just checking in. We made it home ok. However, if anyone has had contact with Dakota or knows how to get ahold of him, Ernest is sitting by his truck alongside the road. No one is in it. Just wanna make sure he is ok.

[SixGun]

Well it looks like Ernest has contact with him. Unloaded and went back to get him. Keep your fingers crossed.

Just wanna says thanks to all the guys and gals that showed up. We had an awesome time as always. Rain or shine we carried on and made the best of it. Lots of excitement and videos. Seemed like everyone had a camera in or on their vehicle.  Maybe someone in the know can create a Ramcharget.net page on facebook to post videos. It is easier but seems like they are lost to the void after a short period of time unfortunately. Open to ideas.

In any event, special thanks to Noah for all the work on Dakotas rig and Ernest for rescuing him off the side of the road on the way home. You guys are the best. Ive been stranded before as have many of you.  Some guys go above and beyond to help out. 

Anyways, until next time, take care of yourselves and your trucks.

Ill update once i pull it apart, started tickin and shortly started "knocking" so i shut her down. Ernest thinks its more of a pop, like exhaust sticking open or head crack possibly. Had a lot of fun with you guys, hope to do it again. Worst case scenario im getting another 318 today so i can pull it and swap all my goodies over, maybe add some more while its out. Lol

[SixGun]

Dakota, if it is a head, I left a 318 with Ernest when I found out my block was cracked. You can have those heads for free if it will get you running.  Just have Ernest check them first to make sure they are ok. I'll get ahold of Ernest and let him know as well.

We had a great time as always. Made it home safe.... now we need videos 

[ProjectM880]

Great Time! 

Laura took lots of video, I will try to up load them this week, and all of the pictures.

Ya know, it hasn't been mentioned yet but there was a lot of battle damage this time around. Ernest and Dakota going through the creek bed on FM TRO got some brutal carnage. Eric took A LOT of hits. Trees were jumping out to hug him everywhere he went. Noah even with his careful demeanor this time around lost a valve stem on Bronco Buster. He showed me all kinds of dings on his driveshaft. Lance left a lot of blue paint on Bronco Buster. Ernest and Dakota bent their hitches. Ryan busted a rear leaf spring perch and pin I believe. Ryan also took a chunck out of his new rim. Hell even I tweaked the driver side front fender in a couple of spots and even though I unhooked the swaybar and rolled it forward, it bent the bracket. Everyone got back to camp under their own power except for Dave with a carb issue that he fixed that night and Ernest from the front gate when his truck wouldnt restart 30 minutes after he got there. New alternator and he was back in business. Ryan kept overheating and eventually removed the hood and he was good. Poor Dakota definately had the hard luck award this time around. Electrical gremlins all weekend and broke downon the way home.Did iI miss anyone?
