This week, Gary and Gary discuss the Wheeling Bootcamp event they put on to help folks get the right start into wheeling their jeeps. But first, they review the upcoming events including the Thanks Give-a-way. Listen for details on how to win prizes worth nearly $50. Lots of work in the MechanHack Shack this week: JK hub maintenance and muffler hackery, and ZJ ball joints and Yukon locking hubs. They review some listener feedback and discuss a hugely positive interaction with Adams Driveshafts. At the Wheeling Bootcamp, they describe the event and the participants--a wide range of vehicles and experience levels. They cover some of the upfront instruction about recovery gear and wheeling basics. And on the trail, they describe all the fun, getting stuck, getting recovered, and a little trail damage. What an awesome time with a bunch of cool people. Thanks to the Wheeling Bootcamp sponsors Discount Tire and Northridge 4x4.
