Last weekend was our annual snow camping trip. Was good to hang out with friends old and new and have great conversation by the fire with @Ridgemaster and others!
We even ran into @Diggs84 and Eric (sorry I forgot your MUD handle) on the way out.
Cheers,
Salue

What is the bitf rebuild&Tore down the front end for the typical birf rebuild, only to discover I need to replace the birfields. Uhg. Well, at least I got to spend some good quality time with my son and teach him the inner workings of a CV joint.

What is wrong with the birf in your pic? I don't see anything that looks out of the ordinary...?

Thanks for clarifying.You're correct on that being the birfield, but the knuckle is the outer part you put the birfield inside...the part that allows steering of the axle.
These are knuckles. (aftermarket ones, but you get the idea)
