Guess the daycare has never heard of people with real jobs,think they are open from 7:15 to 5:15 and even the 9 to 5ers have to rush to get their youngons
So after the daycare closes he has to hire somebody to pick the kid up and keep him til he gets off at 8:30 and take him to daycare when he has to go in early

well, blue is dead.
during the u-joint change attempt, i noticed a few things that scared the crap out of me.
first off, the flange that mounts to the transfer case was broken in 2 places. 1 was welded, and the other is a broken "hoop" that the joint cap sits in.

in the back .the joint cap "hoops" are both wasted. all scored up, and both are bent. so it looks like i have to find a new drive shaft for a short box diesel.
