[QUOTE="RustyC, post: 571897, member: 1997"] Thanks for the complement. I think the original engine failed because I was a used engine and I didn't know any history on it. The 4.3 in it now has a standard 2wd oil pan and pickup and has no oil pressure issues climbing..just not enough hp. No special oil in the axles, they are just over filled so the pinion bearing get bathed in oil and not overheat. One of the cheap rock auto unit bearing did finally fail on my last trip to Hawk Pride. I think having water in the front tires and bumping ledges was too much for it. TBITOY probably nailed it being a thin spindle due to the bushing. I will try to get it out of the trailer and check it out asap and will report what is found [/QUOTE]
