You Gotta Be Kidding Me!
 
After all the wheeling we did last weekend, not tearing up much but some sheet metal and a bumper. I stop by my friends house to show him how nice a locker is and bust a front axle CV:mad: How funny is that:eek: Oh well, a trip to the parts store and $80 later, I'm wheeling again:D

Don't feel bad ..... I switched out all my bent rims and shop vac'ed all the broken glass and then decided to run down the road to pick my son up from school ......... U-joint failure in front drive shaft at about 60 mph ..... took out fuel lines and most of my wiring harness fron trans back :mad: :mad: :mad: I"m ready to burn this thing

Now I really don't feel so bad!:D I hope it wasn't the u-joint we picked up off the ground with all the leaves and mud and stuff. Was it? :eek:

I'm almost to that point Dan !

I'm really debating putting a set of Jeep axles under the Jimmy and keep it as a Mall queen and taking the 60's and starting over with a Jeep ...... SOOOOOOOOO much easier to work on !!!

dan 11-15-2010 05:34 AM

if you decide to go that way the guy i sold the zj to is getting ready to sell

jfiscus 11-17-2010 04:40 PM

replace those CVs with u-joints!

Sounds like my luck Gary...I like running the CV'S too.Except the O-Reily's brand (They won't hold up to my abuse)I went two years running the stock spicers (From a ZJ) without blowing one.
