Getting the Wheeling Fever
had a bit of snow up here in maine. I locked the hubs "warn" shifted to 4wd high. went to work no problems. 8hrs later going back home i feel a slight vibration then a grinding noise. Before winter i took the hubs out cleaned them relubed them. also replaced wheel bearings and seals. i know its not the brakes cuz i replaced them this summer. sooo what ya think.


if speed kill do brakes give life?
