So were there breakages on this trip?  Maybe I missed them being posted.

Um...what?

 Yes guy and Linda broke a Breakline on the left front which we had to cut and then use a pair of vise grips's to pinch off and then bleed the brakes so he drove home on three breaks Brent broke the right front axle shaft blew the U joint right out of it but with manual locking hubs we were able to unlock the hub put it in to High and drive home just fine

Been there, Done that (a few times).

It makes for an interesting ride home.

I used to wheel a lot. . .

And to top it off, Guy and Lynda had two deer run right out in front of them on highway 4 when we were traveling at 45 to 50 mph! Guy must have had one heck of a grip on the wheel because he didn't seem to swerve much.
