I was riding and all of a sudden i heard a kind of loud grinding noise coming from the back shaft area. I though it was the diffrential but then i took apart the back brake. It was full of crap and braking fluid. It looks like the grinding was from the drum rubbing against the bearing...How do i stop it from grinding?. Should i put a new bearing in?

 

this happpend to me on my z and i changed everything out

 

Brake fluid in the back brakes of an ozark...hmm...the Ozark has a cable operated rear drum brake so there is no brake fluid. I'm guessing it was a bunch of mud and other trail crude in there. A little bit of routine maintance could of possibly prevented the whole problem.

 

Ozarks are bulletproof , my friend had one and put it in some curious places and it just kept going

 

yup shaft drive makes it even more bulletproof

 

He managed to roll his 11 times in a row down trail no.94 at hatfield and mccoy and i had to ram it with my rubicon to stop it, and it still fired right up

 

i rolled myn plenty and she still keeps pushing

 

Its as tough as Chuck Norris in operation delta force
