well kids, I know I havn't been around much latley, I'm sure this is much to some peoples happyness.

At any rate, I havnt' forgotten about anyone. I'm just working a bit more than normal trying to get ahead on my bills.

 

Anywho, I went wheeling this weekend and almost killed myself. Ended up goin a hair to fast and slid on a corner to the edge...well..4 feet down the hill. Fortunatly, I made it out.

Then of course, i went down a small cliff and bent the hell out of my drive line.

I have two and a half options.

#1 get a different drive line. Weather its getting a new stock one, or a custom one, I'm not sure yet.

#2 Fix my bent dented one, but for that, I need a temp replacment.

#2 1/2 wait it out, drive in four wheel for my front wheel drive untill I get mine fixed.

 

I found one that is about the same length, within an inch...I think it should work. I just can't load my truck up, and I think it will work. But, its in everett 100 miles north of me.

 

The good news, I am working up that way most of next week.

I would recomend getting a new drive line because if your old one isnt fixed and balanced right it will wobble itself to its on disruction if there is too much stress and probibly break around the U-joint area and you will have to buy a new one for sure after that
