Good time yesterday, it was fun running Rattlesnake in the snow. Unfortunately I didn't get any decent pics due to my camera batteries being dead even though I charged them the night before, .
Anyone hear from Sean? I'm hoping he was able to make it home allright with his TC issues.

Hmm. Hope it holds. Replace it as soon as you can. You don't want chunks breaking other gears and such.

yeah I figure if it breaks Ill just be in the same situation I was in before so it will give me some time to look for another tcase, and if its still working right when I get the replacement then I will have a spare

Well, as a testament to a well done redneck fix...I don't know what you did . Did you lay some weld down and grind it into the gear shape?

So, there was a POP on a speed bump driving in the snow today. I checked it out to find a shock dragging on the ground. Connected to the rear axle but nothing else

One of the "fork" thingies that goes in the bushing broke off. It also bent the bolt on the non-broken side. I can't believe it didn't break it off. Things are nice-n-bouncy for now
