Rolling out as early as possible

Well,I know when I am licked:shrugs:

While doing my extensive checkout before I hit the road,I found that the #2 U joint on the main driveshaft to the rear axle was out,while removing said shaft for a quick replacement,I found the transfer case rear output shaft bearings were out as well.


After taking everything apart for a "quick" repair,one of the outer duals gave way with a mighty BANG, So I am gonna take this as a sign to stay home this year.


Simp is I think going to make a run up here and pick up the M322 LT for delivery at a later date.

Maybe next year.

Any one in or near Cherokee county Georgia that has an outer rear bearing seal? Just one?

I found one that had rotated, torn off the key and basically ground it up.


** Edit: I searched through my parts boxes again and I found an outer seal! Truck is back together and we plan to roll out tomorrow after the rush hour traffic dies down.

Well guys I rolled in just after dark. Talked to Clinton for a minute then got the trucks and rzr unloaded. I'm staying in Kane's RV, y'all know what my truck looks like and my rzr is camo with a small flag on the driver's side.

See all you guys in the am

Developed a bad oil leak on the ride down, AND the tailpipe fell off! Had to turn around and head back home.

I know that I'll see *some* of you guys at Denton this spring. Haven't missed a single one of those, not about to start now!

I finally rolled in around 6:00 PM. My M35A3 broke down on Apple Pie Ridge Road about 2 miles from US 441. The check valve on top of the fuel tank plugged up. The truck quit on a bad curve. I flagged down a guy in a pickup and he pulled me off the road. I found a farmer that lent me the one tool I needed but didn't have with me and about 2-1/2 hours later I was back on the road. Having fun!
