Hi PSD, In case you havnt heard. My son and I got laid off (fired) 1 week or so ago. Then a couple days later, we got hired by our former boss's, former partner. The new job is so much better than the old one. This is one of the few companies that actualy does care about their employees. Im too busy to post all day, but the day sure goes by fast.
RD, Im going to be at carnegie this Sunday with the 250 Jetmoto quad if you and the girls are interested. Its #2 of 6 in the country right now. Id like to run the quad 6-8 hours straight.

Most of the aftermarket balljoints are good. I prefer Moog if available. Do yourself a favor while doing the brakes and flush out the Hyd. system with new fluid. This is one of the most over looked item and you can benefit the most from, essp. towing all the time.

I'd be looking, also need to get the brakes done[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] on top of that, PSD's going into the body shop next week[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] to fix the wife's damages[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I know I would do it but have replaced them many times for a living. I don't know your abilty but I'm willing to bet you can get 'r done[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Check the wheel bearing before you take it apart and then do a check after you tear it down. Replace the grease seals, sand down and grease the caliper slides, and check all the other bushings while your under there.
