Hope everyone is staying safe.

 

Welp fuck...



To the Third Gen (John) who stopped to lend a hand On I-24w today, and @ThunderOne for bringing me a 14mm to get me rolling again. Thank you both Very Much!!

 

It's like the damn apocalypse up here!

 

Damn!

Loose the u-joint at the rear or slip joint failure?

 

Looks like u joint failure the other half is either missing or you just can’t see it in the pic

 

The rest it there in 2nd pic, still in the carrier bearing even.
The angle just made it look like there may be a bit of splined shaft missing.

 

I’m talking about the rear flange on the differential. It looks like it’s snapped clean off.

 

Good eye! I see now.

 

U-joints gone... The slip joint splines didn't come out till after I stopped. I banged it up pretty good at Harlen, so it has been on my list of things to fix. I reckon it should have been a higher priority.

 

On a side note, our trucks drive pretty good in FWD...

 

yes

Have a friend over who just bought herself a brand new TRD Pro 4Runner. Damn is that thing nice.

 

Need suggestions on a hitch mounted bike rack to carry 2 mountain bikes cross country and a single bike around weekly. Any of y’all that mountain bike have suggestions on a sturdy rack that won’t break the bank?

 

I know some good ones that have good mil discounts. Yakima, Thule.
I’ve got a rocky mount single(optional double) superb quality. I got it at a discount rate, unsure what they cost regular. But highly recommend. You can’t FULLy, open the tailgate but pretty much 98.9% when the bike mount is in it’s lowered position.

 

Do you know which model rocky mounts one you have? Those look really nice and they have a few on sale right now.

I’ll more than likely add a hitch to my spare tire carrier specifically for a bike rack to keep it out of the way.

 

I have the monorail solo. Has a hitch lock and bike lock. What I like most is it doesn’t wiggle once it’s in the hitch. And it’s not cheap material.

 

Somebody needs to buy my roll-up tonneau cover. 3rd gen long bed. I'm tired of it taking up space in my garage.

@Kerleyfries when are you coming up this way. I have a Thule or Yakima just sitting in my building that isn’t being used it’s a dual holder that i used to have my cross rip on. I dunno if I have a pic of it or on my truck. It wouldn’t work for me because the way the hitch is in my bumper I couldn’t lower my tailgate if you had said something before this past Weekend I could have sent it and the keys home with @BigMacMcCoy
