Not really a build thread, since it's as built as it is going to get. Imagine that, calling a rig 'done.' I figured this would be a good place to post up my BYS carnage and then later a kinda of retrospective of the build up and breakage of my K5 over the 8 or 9 years I have been beating on it. So here goes...
8/4/07
Lost short-side inner on the D60, looks like an old fracture finally let go. Damn neck-down shafts. I can honestly say they have lived a hard life and I'm surprised they lasted as long as they have.
We made it to the Goal Posts on BYS and decided to turn back as the steering was acting up, not turning to the left and making a loud POP and then turning.
We made it out by using the hydro-assist and also steering with the winch, then ripped the controller plug off on one of the last trees before the wall trail. The truck made it almost all the way back to the gravel pit before lunging for the side of the road. Time to go get the trailer.
