Alrighty, whos in? I should have new tires by then, and i WILL have my steering fixed by then also. Lets see who wants to wheel again. Marshall has the only excuse that is legit so far; moving is the worst thing in the world.

My toe hurts and my spotter's working this weekend. I've got a babysitter coming for the weekend (not for me, for Kyra) - This weekend does not look good for me either, feel free to come break your truck in the back yard if you like. I gotta woes out of this one, so I can leave for Columbus, OH next Thursday. :eek: :eek:

Jack you get the joint fixed yet? I have a joint wrench if you need one.

yeah we went through all the joints in the front end of the buggy. The joints weren't the only thing messed up. Damn motor mounts were extremely loose, barely hand tight

Time to chain them down or buy the heavy duty Rockstomper ones.

Hee hee, need more than chains !! Stevo and Christian did a bang up job rebuilding, tightening, greasing and re-aligning the front joints for me. There is no more movement of the front axle - which I thought was surely to be loose knuckle bearings. All tight there, so I'll wait to break a birf in comp before I rebuild them - they are tight at the moment. According to the rules, I may have to extend my frame beyond the front tires, as when the buggy was built UROC rules allowed the winch plate to be considered part of the frame... Looks like W.E. Rock does not, and we also were running 36 IROK's instead of 37 Krawlers. Also need to clean her up, add more sponsor stickers and a good coat of clear laquor.

Chat with you guys later. Thanks again for everything.

Jack if you break a birf are you going up to 30 spline 300ms like my longs?

No, because I would have to have custom length inner shafts made, which does not make it economically feasable at the moment. I have 2 sets of spare inners and 2 spare outer longfields - so this season is pretty much going to have to remain with what I have. Good idea though, I would love to do that, but you know how it is. Thanks.

GOT COPE?
