Well… this just happened.
Just blew a seal on the rear brake piston about five minutes past Fairplay. I isolated the rear brake system to try and get back to Fairplay.

But then….
The rear wheel bearing and seals blew up and are now spewing oil everywhere.

So again….. if I can’t get all this fixed by Friday, I’ll have to cancel.

Alright, good news.
After some hectic days and lots of money...
The Honey Badger is back up on all four paws again. :ROFLMAO:

New bearings, seals, gaskets, spacers, o-rings, diff oil, wheel cylinders, brake shoes, brake drums, etc.
Tonight I'll be bleeding the brakes and I"ll go ahead and swap out the front diff oil as well.
So we should be good to go for Friday night.

Can everyone who is planning on coming please sound off again now that we're closer to the event? Thanks.
I'm excited to go give this another try!

Based on the original thread that is the correct location and GMRS CH16.

Yes, that information is correct, and yes, I'll be running on GMRS 16.
What are you going to be driving, so we can keep an eye out for you? Your LX 570?
