    yanked him out no problem then had to go threw where he got stuck had no problem..then we went down the road and messed around in yamahasled's land next to a back road and i got stuck but was still moving just couldnt get over my ruts and he pulled me out then i slid across the road into the ditch sat there for bout 5 min goin bout 10 feet back and forth. needed a little help. then he had to get outa where he was after he pulled me. got stuck in my ruts from the first time i got stuck and went down hill from there blew his rearend.

    yamahasled should have pics wonce he gets his driveshaft out

    well after i got out me and "ranger" started playing around and i ended up braking something internally,not to happy about it either...i dropped the rear drive shaft and put it it 4x4. how long can i run it without a rear drive shaft? I won't have money to fix it for another two weeks hoping it'll limp it around untill then...
