you sure u didnt just get that tire too close to Moochie's exhaust pipe?:cheesy:
Bummer. I just got news of this run yesterday and figured it would be tough for a lot of you to make it. I'll definitely try to get some runs planned further in advance but, they'll have to be after KoH.
Just looked at the Facebook pics. Wish we could have done this when I was down for Christmas.
That was a great run! Im so happy I had the chance to run with you guys! I cant wait until the next trip!

Getting some funky ass driveshaft noise on drive home.....
Man I've got to get a C.B., was dying for a beer. Nice to meet everyone today, bunch of great people. Special thanks to Eddie and Moochie for the spotting and answering my questions. See you next time.
Thanks Russ
This is Jeramy, the guy that came with gas station guy, just wanted to say thanks again so much for the invite. Had an amazing time and cant wait for the next trip

Great run today! I always love hanging out with you guys!
Almost forgot: after I aired up and got ready for the drive I cleaned up the oil off of the axel and wheel. When I got home there was no evidence of even a slow leak though the fluid level is still way too high in the front dif. 'The only reasonable question to ask at this point is WT*?!' I fixed the fluid level and will bring her in Tuesday to have the seal checked on the axel.
Good times regardless!!

The 'GAS STATION GUY'!! Hillarious way to come up with a user name. Welcome to the forum and it was great to meet you guys. We'll see you on the next run.
Have fun at KOH and I'll jump on the next run. Sounds like you all had a great time.
Sidewinder and 911A were great yesterday, especially with all the experienced help! Can't wait to do it again!
Hey everyone, I just wanted to thank you all for coming out to play on such short notice. We had a great time with all of you and look forward to doing it again soon
What kind of noise and are you sure it's from the drive shaft?
Yeah it was the boot on the the slip part if the rear shaft. The front 2-3 inches was torn partially off, slid to the diff and was flapping around. Tore some of it off. Sounded/felt normal after. Might cut the whole thing off. The boots on the actual joints seem solid still. Don't really want to buy a new shaft yet until I have to since I just bought the coil overs and Evo sliders. CB ordered.
Thanks

I ran mine for quite a while with no boot on the shaft. It will fail eventually, mine did. It lets dirt and rust get in there and it will keep the slip joint from moving freely.
Thanks. I'll just pay more attention to cleaning and trying to grease it a bit more now.
Thanks Eddie, I'll keep that in mind. Hopefully I'll make it a couple months and go straight to a JE Reel.
That would definitely be the better way to go :yup:
If this blows on the trail I'm screed right? Can you limp home on the front only?
It's not gonna blow for a while and even if it did, you could still get out on front wheel drive.
