The build of my flag ship Black Pearl

Axel update.
Called my credit card company yesterday and verified that they released the money for the axel, they did. Talked with the company that ships for dynatrac, he admitted it was an issue on their side. Sent him the payment information I had and all has been resolved! They even waved the tax that wasn’t charged on the first transaction.

Well I had thought I had this front axle oscillation issue worked out, but todays driving said differently. I’m supposed to got to so cal on Wednesday. Might be taking a different vehicle.

I think it’s the axel upper control arm bushings. They seem too have some play when I force things around.

I’ve been digging in more. Just had the kid in turning the wheels and the drag link end was popping. I’m gonna start there.

Well installed a new drag link end and found out rather quickly, that wasn’t the issue.

Looks like you have a hole in your Trasheroo. This could lead to a serious condition. So you should not go until this is fixed.

This was never intended to be a combination. But with the wrangler not up to a 1200 mile trip, we’re talking the compass. It took some trial and error, but ended up making a new draw bar for the trailer. That way we don’t have a Rue Goldberg looking hitch setup. Much happier how it’s sitting now.
