http://salmons-leap.com/rovering/v/Fl+Rd+Ma+Bell+May+08/
Don had some (quite a bit) body damage, ripped off a wing mirror and broke a half shaft ( i had a spare)
I took it steady Sunday, i had a oil leak from the diff driving down saturday morning, found out why Sunday, rear axle is moving forward and backwards on passenger side, either a bushing or bolt hole has elongated, prop is twisting in the diff causing the leak, both ball joints on the track rod are shot, knew that before i left tho. Other than that had a blast both days, nice to meet up with you
Good one of you catching air

[cellulararrest]

Randy, Sorry not going to make it, rear diff is over Matt Browne's,won't get it back till next weekend. Trailing arms are off waiting for new bushes and ball joints on the track rod are shot. Not going to get it running in time.
