Had a great trip to Georgia and Florida. Spent a day on Jekyll Island which was pretty cool. Never been there before. The rest of the time was spent in Lake Buena Vista Florida. The whole family had never been to Disney including myself. What a neat set-up. The engineering behind that place is amazing. To keep all that stuff going day in and day out spins my head. We hit all four parks and stayed on site at this place called the Polynesian. Took the boat, bus and/or monorail to all the parks. We all got along great even stuffed into one room with two beds. Even on the last day no one was ready to go. The excursion performed excellent. No issues what so ever. She is a trooper.

When we got back she hadn't been in any dirt during the trip so I took her out for a walk.

New to the area

Just moved down to Greensboro three weeks ago from Kansas. Anyone know of a reputable rear end shop in the area? Looking to install a Tru-trac but I am currently in a corporate apartment and really missing my garage and tools.

Not sure about G-boro but if you're willing to drive about an hour east I highly reccomend East Coast Gear Supply. They not only work on, but build and run some high quality off road rigs. They know their stuff. Worth a call at least. They might can put you in touch with someone closer.

Good luck.

About a month ago I ran across Jekyll Island on the internet. Not sure how I got there. It seems like a real unique place.

It is amazing how they can keep Disney running so smooth with everything that goes on there nowadays.

just left ya'lls great state this morning. as I got closer to DC, I am really ready for the drive back to NC to stay. got the drive way cut in on the new property , and the gate up. even put up a mail box. guess the mail box is kinda rushing it, as we don't have a 911 adderess yet, but one can only hope.

Yeah, it was a cool area. Lots of seperate islands as well. A wealth of history on Jekyll island. Another thing was the deer. Tons of them on the island and all tiny. No natural predators and overpopulation makes the heards smaller. Would not call them tame but they werent afraid of people and would walk about at dusk at their leisure.

Totally agree. I was amazed at the engineering behind the parks and resorts. They have it down to a science.

Yeah, he's going to build us an off road park on his twenty acres so we can all go to his place and tear our trucks up and go mud boggin.

There's a place in Greensboro I use called Truck Parts Specialist or something close(ill get back with ya on the exact name),it's right off of I-40 at the sandy ridge road exit,you can see,it's right off the highway.They're not Ford specific,but they built me a nice driveline using Spicer components and they're very good with rear ends.They mostly do big truck driveline work.
