Rossi, get yourself one of those telescoping magnets. They are just a few dollars at most auto parts stores. My right front axle shaft broke in the same place and my little magnet saved me from having to pull my carrier out to get the splined piece.

Upon closer inspection my flop ended up costing me 4 quarts of ATF and my heater control valve started leaking so I have to replace that before Elbe. My brake master cylinder has become a three pump chump, too. Not sure if that happened before or after the flop. That needs replaced before Elbe as well.

i'm still impressed your rig made it the rest of the day and its not like we avoided an trails either lol.

my bro busted his once but since it was c-clip he was dead in his tracks.

Buck think its possible you just got some air in the system?

I'm pretty sure I didn't but before I drop the cash on a new Master Cylinder I'm going to have Chris help me bleed the brakes.

i really should get after this. my brakes suck . eve on the trail. trying to run the clutch brake and gas pedal all with $hitty brakes makes for a bit of a **** on a steep part of the trail or on a object i dont want to roll back on. i still need to in-stall my new e-brake hard ware too.
