I got a call about a jeep on top of the Cliffhanger Trail with a broken balljoint eliminator. It was later in the day so I told them if they had a ride out the best thing to do was to go in the morning to get it out. It needed a part out of the factory steering knuckle to fix it so we pulled that part out of the wrecked jeep in the back yard to use... However once up on the trail I realized I had forgot it. So we had to do a trail repair to get it to drive out. Halfway back down the scrambler lost the front driveline due to a failed u joint. So we pulled the driveline and kept going down the trail. We had to help the scrambler up a couple obstacles at the end to get to the main road. Once on the main road we decided to pick up the customers jeep and carry it to the shop so no further damage would be done to the knuckle. Once we hit the pavement Shawn flashed his lights and flagged me down saying the passenger rear tires on the wrecker were wobbling. We pulled the outer dual to tighten the lug nuts and found 5 out of the 8 studs had sheared off. So we sent Shawn to go get the gooseneck and we loaded Trailmater and the customers rig on the trailer and took them to the shop. The lug studs were so loose we used Ol Blue to carry Trailmater into the shop. So we all jumped on both rigs and with Robby Layton and Hillbilly helping we got the customers rig back together and the wrecker back together. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.
