Well it was payback time for all the good trail runs I've had, Murphy's Law hit hard last night:( We were in the Rock Garden at the local ORV and 1st I pretzled my tie-rod, a friend had one at home so they went and got it and we fixed it on the trail, after the fix I made it about 6" and broke a front axle u-joint, luckily I was carrying my spares, and we fixed it in the same spot as the tie-rod, by this time it was dark and as I was finishing the climb out of the garden I blew out a tire! Lots of carnage in a very short time, but luckily there was several of us out. We had spare parts, tools, and got some good practice at trail repairs at night, but I hope that never happens again!

Someday, I hope to get there:D I've got a D44 in the garage with flat top knuckles I'm thinking about building but I may hold out for a 60 instead.
