    Finally got the new Moog u-joint in. The old joint just spit one cap, so none of the ears were fubared. I really need to address the brake issue.

    Brake issue? Is it the leaking rear line, or did something **** with the "field repair" I did on the front brakes in Alto?

    Well, if the rear line is still leaking, it is probably the problem. Swing through Dallas with it and I'll help you knock it out.

    I ran alloys in the dana 30 and yukons in the 44. I don't see a difference. What ujoints do they come with? At a minimum run spicers but you might want to consider superjoints or the equivalent.

    With how often you break front shafts, you either need one tons, super beat off awesome shafts or don't throw so much puss at it on the trails, the scout can't handle it.

    I would second saving your pennies for RCV shafts or at least make sure that the shafts/ujoints that you use have a warranty. It would suck to blow a brand new high dollar shaft on your first trip out.

    You guys really think it is a wise decision to spend that moneyon D44 RCV shafts? Really? You also really think Sam Hodnett is going to spend that money on shafts? You guys are dumb

    Check pirate daily and find something used or buy the cheaper "chromos". Buy proper tires. Wheel it and learn how not to break **** and have a good time. Jimmy did it for quite awhile

    Seriously? D44 RCVs?!?!?

    wise? Is a stock 60 a wise decision? $1500 for shafts with a no questions asked lifetime warranty or $700 for shafts that run stock u-joints or $200 a piece superjoints?

    Yes, a stock 60 would be 10 times wiser decision. But that would require work that Sam doesn't do

    Chromos and wheel better. Boom. Done

    I think those tires have an awful lot to do with it. Aren't they 15" wide? Switch to 12.5" and the shafts won't snap as easily.

    How wide are the wheels? Again, switch to a 8" wheel.
