That was a fun trail!!!!! :biggthumpup: :yesnod: :thumbs:

Get into that front end yet Al? Found my water leak, fix it this week and goig to TDS. You going to make it by any chance?

You want me to send some pics I got of you for your web page? The ones I got of you almost on your side? :beerchug:

Hey Chase,
You did have a leak huh? All right then. Something to fix.
After unloading camping crap and pulling the junk into the garage, I spent the remainder of Sunday stretched out on the couch with my bankie.  :therethere: 
Earlier days I would have been tearing into it.
I was still beat up on Monday!

I've got a little work today, and just may tear into it Wednesday.
It remains to be seen whether TDS is in my future.

Please, any pics you guys have...send 'em.  :beer:

Hmmmm! Four teeth off the ring gear huh? What did it sound like? A baseball card in the spokes, only metallic?

That's about what it sounded like.  But maybe 3 or 4 baseball cards.  Each turn you could feel the grind when it past. :yikes:

Yep. Sounds like what happened to T II on Riffel at the Joe Show Rock.
I'm tearing into it today.
Good excuse for you to add front locker.  :gap: Where you going for new gears?

I am going over to All Pro on Friday to spend a grip of cash.  Yukon gears, ARB locker, and other misc. stuff.  Also ordering Longfields.  Should be set until I can get tires.

And you?  Are you going with Yukon gears?

Way to go Teag. You'll be running with the big dogs. :gap:
I have a driveline shop in town supplying me with a set of gears. Possibly US Gear. Hopefully Precision. :thumbs:
