So, had a blast running the family through the trails, taking turns... Took the doors and soft top off for the first time since owning her... That was fun! Some of the fam headed home and I went to hit some of the harder stuff with my dad, daughter, and brother in law... Sammi did exceptional...

I'm still waiting for the fam to show up, then I'm heading out...

My sis and brother in law haven't been wheeling with me yet, so I figured we would take a quick trip up to Reiter today... Take turns driving them over the rocks n stuff... Anyone else going today?

I'm waiting on a pentadapter I ordered so I can throw in Yota drivelines... Soon... Soon.

Perhaps unrelated... But back when I was a teen I bought a motor from a junkyard(pontiac 350 big block) which had similar symptoms... Would seem to idle okay in park, but died every time I put it in gear and added a load to the engine... Only way to drive it anywhere was to power-brake it...

I might be ready for another shakedown run by this weekend... Couldn't get my junk ready for last weekend... Let me know if/where you go crash...

I'm working this weekend and holiday(nights)... But I may try and get out at least once this weekend(somewhere)... Just want to fab up a yota square tube driveline first... I'll keep you posted if I get it done and decide to go out.

I'm looking forward to going on these night runs again! 'Twas a blast!! If any of you haven't done it, I'd suggest it as a good time!

I'm gone this weekend to a Rc Heli Funfly in Othello Wa. My wheeler is doing great, but I really wanna fab up a yota square tube driveline before I go out again.. I'll try my hand at making one after I get back from the weekend... Should be ready after that...

Just my opinion... But I think your picture answers your question... Lol Was it running dry? Or perhaps it wasn't fully milled to full spec and developed slop? Or perhaps it is just not the right 'hardness' for the metal? I'm new to chromolies and their wear patterns... But I know I'd be...

I know right! Was one of the bonuses of buying that rig... I think I would have to modify my exo cage to run it myself... Haven't fully decided if I wanna keep it for myself, or if it will help motivate a sale...

Might be looking to sell the second samurai I picked up to swap out the axles into mine... I don't think I will need to try and keep/maintain 2 wheeler rigs at this time... So, just testing the waters to see if anyone is interested to buy a sammi. Some of the pros: Locked front and rear...

Can you take a few pics of how the fiberglass top over the driver attaches? My second sammi I just bought has the same top/style... But isn't mounted... Not sure if I'm going to turn mine into a Daily Driver(I just bought it for the toyota axles, then figured I'd resell it with my locked sammi...

I'm amazed that ANYONES trailer can hold up to the abuse they take bombing up that road!!! Lol. Not to mention my poor 318 and auto trans in my dodge that both struggle to keep up with the caravan of trucks n wheelers when I've gone there! ;-P Alas, I won't be making it... I'm doing some TLC...

Lol. http://youtu.be/Z0wZGwz66EA

Re-grooving old Swampers the redneck way! http://youtu.be/4p6UjrJl6A0 http://youtu.be/4p6UjrJl6A0 Thoughts?!? Lol

Nevermind... Pulled the steering bars and it dropped in with just a light push... Lol

Fighting trying to get the high steer arms into the upper trunion bearings on the knuckle install... I've got the lowers... But I just can't seem to get the steering arms to cooperate and drive in straight/properly... What's the trail fix? Do you guys remove the steering rods off the arms to...

Decided to go ahead and do the inner axle seals, wiper seals, and Spartan locker... Tick tock, tick tock... ;-P Got it all torn down now, axle and wiper seals installed/ready to wrap up... Just got the third member out, about to pull the bearings and ring to get at the carrier pin...

It's a temporary solution until I find out if I need to cut up the body for clearance issues, or respring the leafs all the way around... Basically, just to make sure I didn't slash the sh!t outta my tires this weekend... Mines a budget wheeler, and I learn as I go... And make do with what I...
