Blazer Bash 2022 It's TOO late for Last Minute Thrash

It’s not that long in person, objects In pic appear larger. I had to go that long for when it drops all the way out. I’ve had others come apart from not being long enough.

Is this like that Seinfeld episode when George gets out of the pool…I WAS COLD!
 
I’m a little nervous about coming to BB now that my shaft may be undersized
 
Testing the "new", used 208 t case. Old one had a front output bearing problem, possibly caused by the bent cross member hitting the driveshaft, after dropping off a ledge, while following @Babaganoosh off of Metal Masher. lol. Thanks to @91S10 , and @Cyclone Traveler for all of their help!20220807_162350.jpg
 
I put a new gasket/o-ring on the gages for my CO2 tank, and replaced the air line on the inflator Guage and new o-rings on it too. Changed the hose from 2 foot to 6 foot since they were out of the short one.

Did a little inflatable ball body work until my balls exploded...

Re- attached one of the pieces of my grill surround.
 
Helping my brother @91S10 flex out his new acquisition! Had to lengthen the front bump stops to keep the tires out of the fenders. Has a lot of small things to take care of, but should be fun at BB22. Thanks to @Cyclone Traveler for use of his fwd forklift, also known as a Massey 4707 tractor!20220806_101546.jpg20220806_103659.jpg20220806_121908.jpg
 
My shaft was too big! It was always hanging too low and getting knocked around which led to a lot of agony. I mean it's so long that it'll flop around if it's not supported.

Last year I did a lot of work to get it shortened. It's still long and the girth is the same but it doesn't get knocked around like it used to because it's not hanging down so far. I still wish I had an extra set of hands when it needs to be handled; with that length and girth comes a lot of weight. It's hard to find someone willing to deal with that shaft!

You must need more work, because you put a lot of thought into that description.

I'm never going to hear the end of that haha, to ,y defense that was the first trail I ever ran in a new build and I was following @muddysub which pulled his shaft into a sword fight in both hands.
 
Well added a new item to the list, 5 new tires. Any recommendations? 37" to 40" inch, I don't trailer so must be decent street manners and good off road. I currently run 37x12.50x17 BFG Krawlers/all terrain KM2's

Gonna purchase quick
