Break Time



Well, about 2 weeks ago I went on a wheelin trip to a place called Beasley Knob in Blairsville GA. Been there before and the trails are mild. Lots of hill climbs. One trail named 93B was a bit of fun and made 2 guys flop. So while wheeling this time we encountered a good bit of wet soil and it made things on this trail quite interesting. It was really tough that day and I ended up damaging the front axle without knowing. Well, 2 weeks later I am backing up the yard and hear a loud popping coming from the front. I decided I had better pull the diff cover to investigate. Glad I did as I found a bearing cap bolt sheared off. I have a wheelin trip to Harlan KY planned for Sept 10-13th so I should have it fixed by then. Hope nothing is serious. Just another part of the hobby. uuuhhhh.
