    Van Sandt was the first one on the tour, had no idea it was haunted.

    We did Van Sandt, Loux, Cabin Run, and Frankenfield.

    Also had three creek crossings on the trip as well.

    Ha I was just reading this. Also saw this:

    And it's funny because we actually saw a red fox at the end of the road.

    Front pinion seal is the seal where the front driveshaft connects to the Differential flange, right?

    I fought with it for an hour, thinking I was just not compressing the spring far enough. I eventually tried it without the spring and it still wouldn't fit! Then I tried filing down the square edges on the lock ring channels, but got nowhere fast. Keeping the original is the way to go on these, I think!
