Had one heck of a time yesterday, and not one rig made it home in one piece. Whether it was my jeep breaking an axle shaft, my cousin Toyota losing breaks, or my friends Toyota catching on fire, having the hood fly open going down the highway or it spewing oil into the cab...
Got in a few good hours of wheeling though.
Here is where my carnage began. Up on firebreak Five at the rock garden.
upon closer inspection you see why I was stuck.
And after trying to get myself unstuck this happened on the drivers side. (and I'm the idiot who didn't bring any spares)
So after that I didn't wanna call it a day yet so we continued on the trail and i was doing great until 1 spot it got a little to slick and a little to steep. I was trying to back up to get a good run and my rear windows were completely fogged. The only warning I got was my cousin yelling tree a millisecond before I hit it.
So after that I really want to lock the rear end, and get rid of the crappy Dana 30 front axle and find a dana 44. Also my drive shaft is way to short and was making noises the entire time, so it's on the list too.
If anybody has a dana 44 or knows of somebody you should let me know. I won't have any cash until may though so I'm not in any sort of rush.
