What brand bearing did you go with? When I had to replace one of my rear bearing/hub assembly I ended up going with Koyo Japan unit.

I always go the Timken bearing and Dorman hub combo.

Received the replacement O rings from ARB to see if that will fix the air locker issues of not always holding pressure. It's a start.

What decided to leak all over your shock?

Nothing. I use Fluid Film over the winters. It just collects everything.

Fiske Ave Fab Day 3/3/2018

Fun little project day for War Wagon, the LX 450. Replaced all bushings in the front radius arms and made a cargo barrier for it. Started mocking up some 37s on the Money Pit which look so right.

Odyssey Extreme Battery

Any need for a "height adapter" like the Odyssey website says to drop that battery in?

It's about time I replace my original battery and will go with the same battery.

I did buy it only because it was like $4.00 but I don’t think it’s needed. I even have it sitting on the original plastic tray. I don't know if any of that is right or wrong but it’s been staying put still lol.

Easy Sunday Trails 3/11/2018

A group of us from our club got out for an easy Sunday trail ride. Was nice to just get into the woods and mess around a little. Nothing too challenging but some really tight spots and deep water/mud holes.
