Incase anyone would be interested, we are having a Color Tour this saturday (10-3) around the Harrison area. It is the Moose Off Road Club trail ride. This is good run to take stock to slightly modified rigs on.. We meet at the Moose around 9ish and leave for the trails around 10:00. We are cooking out on the trail.. This ride is lots of fun and we always like meeting new people... If you have any questions please let me know. Hope to see some of you on the trails... Thanks Kari

Silver Lake is nothing special, bone stock you can still have fun. I say go for it, see what works and what does not. Then fix the nots.

yes, it could be as simple as the wheel joint (u joint) you should not have CV joints. It's pretty easy to do, it is just time consuming. I think that is why my 4wd binds in a certain spot, so i need to do mine sometime soon too, i have not been able to do anything fun lately because of it

Your just a little to far north for me to know anyone reliable.

But really, u-joints are easy. Just buy two when you get them, that way if you screw up you have another one already. If you do it right the first time, then you have an extra for when you need it.


Watch part 1, and 2.
