Everyone running Golden Spike:

Keep in mind we are running 2 separate sorties:

@4door99 is leading the first group leaving at 8 am
@kgblazerfive is leading the second group leaving at 9 am
 
A military term usually reserved for air missions...

For example, when a fighter takes off from a carrier, completes the mission, then lands, that was a sortie.

Curious about the drive shaft

It does not look like you have much up travel before the shaft bottoms out. That will likely punch the Tcase off the transmission if you stuff it

That is my concern along with if I flex to far it will probably bind.
 
Just ordered a full set of yukon 4340 axle shafts, supposed to be here Wednesday. Gotta get everything else done before then. Mount tool/parts box, fire extinguisher, CB, lights, change oil, weld in new exhaust...taking it to the wire, lol.
I guess that I will find out if you are taking it closer to the wire than me.... we will have to wait and see!

:rotfl:
 
Got a coolant leak on the tow rig that I cant find. I'm pulling the downpipe tomorrow so I can get to a coolant blockoff plate that may be the issue. If it's not leaking, I don't know what else it could be. Leak is too big to chance towing to Moab.


I'm not happy
