There's some good designs on this site, and holy fucking selection.

 

I’ll have to check it out more later. I only saw that one design.

I’m kind of partial to pocket Carhart Ts. If I’m not wearing one, I’m constantly trying to put things in the phantom pocket...

 

I need one of these tee shirts as well. I have a similar shirt that says, My alone time is for everyone's safety.

 

it's definitely quieted things down a bit, but as of day 1 a leak, albeit very small compared to before. I'm thinking i'll let it leak for a little while longer and more of this stuff dumped in will solve the issue.

Thanks for the good vibes!!!

See above, magic potion seems to be magic

trying the potion lotion, seems to be helping after a day

quoted to say wheel bearing changes are easy before the wheel bearing lets go, and @nj636 's wheel bearings are the bees knees!

 

You carry US made CV boots?

Need.

 

Gents. I pulling together everything I need for my CV axle rebuild. Any special grease needed?

 

Typically comes with the boot kit.

 

Ah.

Thanks!

 

I don't know you'll find anything outside of Dorman these days. I'm not sure where they are made though.

 

I didn't get any movement out of the passenger side, just the clicking rumble - it's on it's way out anyway and I'll be doing them both. I'll shoot you a message regarding a set with dust seals shortly.

 

Yep, I know I ran the driver side far too long so hopefully it doesn't give me too much grief when I tear into it. It started making some random clicks last year right before a trip down to the outer banks but I didn't have time to deal with it then it didn't give me any problems along the way or since. I just got back from VA where we ran some rocks and I'm sure that that the 1500 miles sealed the deal. Live and learn eh?

 

Any trip pics?

 

As long as it still spins. Mine literally separated at he bearing and the only thing holding my wheel on was the axle nut

 

Ordered!

 

No good action shots on the trail since the dash cam doesn't do scale any justice. Nothing too crazy since I was dragging the trailer along, just rocky cobble switchbacks, washouts and runoff crossings headed up to the placed we stayed in the highlands. I still need to upload the junk off my camera and make updates to my build thread but here are a few from my phone.

Stayed in a cracker barrel parking lot the first night making time down to VA, so this was the first night actually camping. Found a sweet dispersed site in GWNF up on a high ridge. Not bad getting the rig up or down but had a heck of a time getting everything turned around up top.

From there I met back up with a buddy and his family and we spent two nights along the AT in VA in the Highlands area. This place was awesome and had the rocky unmaintained access road up to the old cattle weigh station. When we rolled in at dark the pen had apparently been open for a while and about a dozen wild ponys were in the “camp” area. We were able to herd them back out the gate with the rigs without too much trouble. Sweet views up in the Highlands though.

Rented UTV’s in the Hatfield-McCoy trail system. Sweet day for sure!

Made our way back up the WV to see the New River Bridge and check out the old mining towns. On the way into Thurmond they had the vehicle side of the bridge closed but detoured us over the railroad side of the bridge. Makes the short list of weirdest detours I’ve encountered in travel.

Obligatory Thurmond Main Street photo and overlanding waterfall photo.

 

Heard good things about the exploration of the Hatfield-Mccoy system. Open to UTV's and Full Size right?

 

Full size eh’

 

Looks awesome

 

Not sure about fullsize, a few folks I talked to in town said there are a lot of places around there that the jeepers go but they may not be part of the hatfield-mccoy. It's a huge area though, I think we covered something like 70 miles in the 6 or so hours we were there and really never left the Pocahontas and Indian Ridge systems. We were there on a weekday and didn't run into many others until the afternoon when the weather was nicer. I think there are 3 or 4 other trail areas down there but where we happened to be had a good mix of mud and rocks with trails rated like from green to red/black. Some single track stuff two if you prefer 2 wheels though the mud there would really be a handful on the connector trails.

 

Napa sells it in baggies, one bag per CV.
