maybe your back and neck were sore from when you slipped and fell on your a**. by the way, did you ever figure out that noise in your front axle?

haha, ya I actually forgot about that it was a pretty hard fall too, damn ice. Ya, it is my front diff, low on fluid (mixed with water) so when I'm on a steep incline it doesnt have the proper lube to cover everything, easy fix though

Now is that the deionized, spring, or straight tap water? I've been looking for a cheaper alternative to the $$$ synthetic I'm running

its a 70/30 mixture that I came up with one day when I decided to ruin my ring & pinion, 70% water that is...and any type of water will work, but my personal favorite (and cheapest) is the muddy badlands trail water, and I find that if you get your water from the orange trail it gives it a very pleasant aroma

My neck gets sore from a long drive as it is but I had the same problem. 3 hours each way in that weather and I was a wreck. Got all the way home and had to continue across town on country roads to pick up my son. I thought I was gonna die, my head hurt so bad I couldnt see. It wasnt fun. Wheeling was a blast though, so it was worth it.

I love snow wheelin'! Just got to be careful around ice. The scenery is beautiful covered in snow too. Some from my club are going on Jan 3rd, can't wait!
