Ordering full set of control arms and f/r drive shafts in next month. What do you all recommend for each of them. You all are my source for some of the best info out there. Let me hear your thoughts.

My heart sunk because I just knew.... No one knows why???? It just did...Sad part is that I'm so dam busy that I don't have time to play. No true abuse....

Well at least it's going again!! I know what you mean by too busy to play.... Hope it doesn't happen again,, to anyone!

It's a fun hobby, and surprizing how many people are into it! There a bunch down this way also....
I think I might loo at some real out of the way places along the border to place some... See if anyone has the cojones to go out there....

I hear ya on the greasable part too, but I upgrade lifts/trade in jeeps so often that it doesn't factor into the equation for me!! while not greasable, the flexjoints are rebuidable to an extent.
Now that I've said that...I'm sure something will break

EDIT: When we doing a trailride????

Did someone say trailride?? I'm thinking about heading up the Reddington area Sunday for a short trip. I think by now there might be some water to play in. There is also a group going on Sat. I think 12:00PM Circle K tanque Verde.

On another Note Does anyone want to Grab a Beer around 5 or so this afternoon?? I'm at he grant alvernon area and usually just go over to Appleby's at Grant Swan. But I'm willing to go just about anywhere there's cold .

Not really, quality is the biggest issue. I have a pretty decent amount of backpay coming to me. So money isnt really an option, and the biggest thing is the wife has already blessed off on it.
