remember when i said the ring gear bolts in the rear end got loose and started backing out? idk if i said that up here or not but w/e, i'm pretty sure the bent axle shaft rattled them loose..

same theory on the front end, im pretty sure that because the driveshaft was unbalanced it rattled stuff loose and the front gears are now done. you can move the yoke all around :dead1: thats why im looking for new gears, preferably already setup in a housing

ha
for sure!

the fire we had saturday night i saw from a few miles away! :popcorn:
it was on top of a hill





pop quiz for everyone.
What ever happened in Wyoming Military wise? Medicine Bow National Forest to be more exact(the smaller one)

because we found a bunker. Thick reinforced cement walls, thick steel door frame those wedge type windows on top of the hill we had the fire on..:Thinkingo anyone?

huh. well i've only seen 2 moose in my life and they were a few hundred yards away in some trees.

my friend with me said they were elk, who knows but i got damn close for some wild animals

Seahawk 05-20-2008 09:23 PM

wow looks like fun!!!

01 ranger 4x4 05-20-2008 09:44 PM

i think they are moose but ive never seen an Elk
ive seen moose that close up in wyoming at a ski resort they seem not to be afraid of people

INT3RC3PTOR 05-21-2008 12:49 AM

Elk are like a big deer kinda. and moose have lanky legs, and the Elk are going to look fatter and shorter

And I thought at first glance in the "I had to picture" you were dragging one behind your rig...

thesoundmaster 05-21-2008 01:09 AM

they're elk. Doesn't surprise me they came that close. It all depends on their territory. In Estes Park there's a heard that lives through the town, not surprising to be 5-10 yards away. March I was up there, saw 2 of them butting racks... thats a badass sight to see... to big, powerful animals ramming eachother like that.

99ranger4x4 05-21-2008 12:16 PM

^ thats in a subdivision where they are used to people.

they didnt come to us... i went driving towards them across a field to see how close i could get. my doorless noisy clicking truck lol



it is going to be hard to beat that weekend though.
i need to get a ton of people like a week in advance i guess
