My truck's dirty so it shows the oil better. I'm not used to such clean equipment. (That's a backhanded compliment BTW)

it was full. I almost got a ticket from the officer I spoke with on the side of the freeway. there was a trail of fluid about 300 yards long that ended with me and it was coming out like a fountain when I pulled over and took a peek.

The Progressive BS is leaking in from all sides. I would like to vacate ASAP. The only saving grace is they haven't revoked our concealed carry permits.

Meet me around the Somerset Kentucky area in a couple of years......... Cheap livin, and good folks that don't take kindly to outsiders trying to change things.

My type of place, not to mention gun laws that a guy can be proud of.

I think Idaho just passed a law so you don't need a permit to conceal carry, they can carry in most no gun zones too from what I read.

Update, got the t-case out!

Gun laws are getting really bad here with the detachable magazine ban and background checks to buy ammo!! Now I see there is going to be a $50.00 fee to get a permit to buy ammo.
In 2017 if I stayed here I would have to register my AR15 to keep it the way it is with the stupidass bullet button mag release!!

Alaska has the Department of Environmental Quality. They are worse than the EPA. When my truck was totaled, they where trying to decide is I had spilled enough oil next to a river to warrant a fine.
We have almost no restrictive gun laws. The restrictive element here is cost and availability of ammo and reloading components.

That looks to me link the front driveline doesn't have enough travel or bound up somehow. That fracture looks to me like something pushed the front output yoke back/out and can't think of anything but a front drive issue that would do that....
