Got to windrock about 12:30 and it had just quit raining. The lady that checked us in said had rain for 3 days.

Me and Jimmy went scouting for some good trails and we came up one that had water rushing down it like a creek for like a mile. It was definitely different. There's so much Rock in the soil that you don't even get muddy.

That sucks...

Fwiw, I put the same kit on my Burb a couple years ago. Or, actually, I paid Robbi to do it. Far as I know, he was able to bleed it normally. I had heard the same thing about having to cycle the ABS, but he said he didn't...

I did the full stainless line replacement on mine last year. The really long line that goes from the ABS module all the way to the rear axle was a PITA as it threads in between the frame and gas tank. A second set of hands would probably make it a lot easier. I did wind up taking the bed loose on the driver's side and jacking it up about 3-4".

No problem bleeding the brakes that I can tell. After doing the initial bleeding I took it out on some gravel and did a few panic stops to activate the ABS, then bled them again.

Not what I wanted to see in my rear differential inspection hole after Windrock.

This will put me outa commission for Rich's place so that I can get apart and salvage the New Heavy duty Toyota pinion Bearings I installed last year when I had the Diff out from breaking the rear Chromoly axle.

(lesson Learned)
If you loose all your gear oil like I did in October 2016 at Harlan and drive it back to camp thinking it's (LUBED or WET ) enough you will learn the hard way...This did cause some minor damage that I thought would be ok..I was wrong..
But I'm also sure that going from my I slicks to 40 inch Stickies with surprised traction didn't help either.

Will have to setup new gears and break in properly before Golden Mountain. (If all goes Well with that)

Bent up another custom sleeved Drive shaft that I was told I wouldn't bend without tearing up something else. So I am gonna beef up even heavier and see what bends/ breaks next.

Runoveru2 · 07-19-2018, 12:47 PM

Absolutely Ben,
I am officially outa functional driveshafts at the moment, I'm trying to at least get 1 together to break in the new set of rear gears I just installed.

bbtank45 · 07-19-2018, 02:01 PM

I fixed an ongoing issue with 14bolt hub studs working loose....and pulling threads. Went to studs and hardened nyloc's
