Well besides sending my bent axle in for warranty inspection, I found a couple other things wrong. I now need a new rear rotor, the rubber engine inserts in the case are toast. Most likely from leaving them in when I PCed the cases, I did a leakdown test last night that isn't up to par and now I found a big chunk of steel in my oil. The engine is out of my quad right now and I'm about to tear into it. I think I took a tooth of a gear somewhere in the transmission. I have a lot of work to be ready for Brule. We'll see.

Any specific time you want to have the fun drags? Are they at drag hill ? Maybe I could bring my shovel to smooth out those back tingling bumps at the bottom.

Just get a heavy piece of lumber (like a railroad tie or some rough cut 2X6) and chain and drag it around behind a 4x4 quad in 4 wheel drive, easiest and fastest way to smooth things out. I would drag the hill and then keep it handy because after a few passes you are going to have to drag the start area again otherwise you will get some big holes developing.

Great Idea. But unless someone else can haul that smoothing device it won't get there, as I don't pull anything with the shee other than me and the hills.

Yeah, I figure you can probably find someone to haul it (not sure how far the hill is from the parking lot - figured kinda close anyway) if they are heading out there. If its like 30 miles to the hill - forget it, take a shovel and then just keep moving the starting line over ever few guys. You're going to need a 4x4 to pull it anyway if you choose to go that route for smoothing the track, a banshee will make more mess than it will fix, just trying to pull it around.

i say leave the whoops i gotta try the new shocks and wider a-arms in the front lol.

 

[flying frenchman]

Don't ya know stock supension rocks lol. I don't usually go fast enough anyways to feel the bumps that bad, but I've seen a few people rubbing their backs in the past. Oh well if they're to big then we'll have to jump them on the way up.
