Nice slidin Mr. W!
Better ease up on those brakes on the downside, that was almost a too exciting video!

 :thumbs: :thumbs:

That's funny cause I didn't use the brakes. That was all engine braking.  :ha_ha:

After this storm rolls through we should have plenty of mud. So start packing and don't forget your Swampers. :yupyup:

if only I didn't have to go have some teeth removed fri. I could use the $1300 it's gonna cost me to come down there.

If you don't need the pain killers I can pull those teeth out a lot cheaper  :driving: + :lipsrsealed::gap:  and since ya have to come to fl...... Just messin. Yeah it's easy to say not to use your brakes but you can't see what you are heading to until your rig is already on it's way down  :yikes:  wheather you want to be or not. So you have to pick your line blind  :sheerterror:  and hope that you can correct it ASAP when you realize your just there for the ride. :scared:  On that slope I think my brakes were locking up before my brake lights would go on. It does not take much pedal at all.

Nissan's need Marlin too. Won't you help?

Hey Gator, no that wasn't seaworld, that was an area in Bithlo where 50 and 520 meet. As you make the right onto 520 there's a big open field on the left, the trails are right back there. It wasn't all that big but lots of mud and water.

We do have to make some plans though. This coming weekend Mark's on-call AGAIN. Dec. 10 is my companies Christmas party but we have Dec. 11 open. The following weekend the OJC is planning a TBA trailride. Then the next weekend is Christmas. :yikes: dang how time flies!!

Mr.W is on call for NYE :down: so it would have to be either Dec. 11, if Mark is up for that and you're free, or after the 1st of the year. There is also a new member from Jax, usmcracer, that was going camping in Ocala and to the pit (called the Alpha Pit by most it seems, not Rock Garden) this past weekend and wanted us to join them. So we'll have to see when we can get together with them in the near furture too. :thumbs:

Hey I'm in FLTTORA with usmcracer.  The next campout we're doing is in January at the Oklawaha RV Resort in the northish end of the ONF.  It's the Florida 4WD Assosiation winter campout and it's huge.  There will be all kinds of rigs there.  You should deffinately come up for that.  Lots of wheeling around that area.  APit is a short drive (20something minutes) and then all of the ONF to explore. 

The FLTTORA website is http://www.flttora.com

Dec. 11 is out. Thats Will's funer....er' I mean wedding day. I told him I can have him out of the county in 20 minutes but he insists it won't be far enough hehehee. It's looking like Jan may be the next oppurtunity that the Mammoth and the Insta-Gator ride together again. This weekend (Fri & Sat) I'll be at the convention center for the aftermarket trade show. I want to see all the toys I can't afford.

It it entirely possible that I simply don't know the complete part breakdown on a 3rd member, but when you say, "front pinion bearing," I would expect to see you working on the front end of the rig?  My only other guess is that there is two bearings on the pinion?
