Sure did.

Put it on a lift and ran it in 2wd. Heard the noise immediately in the front end. Come to find out both front universals are bad. Pulled both left and right a-arms and half-shafts so I could disconnect the front diff. With that unbolted I could move it enough (without removing it) to get the front drive-shaft out. It's sitting like that right now waiting on parts.

I ordered two greasable EPI universal joints from Wheel-A-Way and I'm just waiting for them to come in. Should have them by the end of the week.

On another note, my new (to me) dirtbike is registered and insured as of today. So now I have a spare ride!

LOL I should have known that you would catch on to that post.

I picked up JoeR's 2001 KDX 200. It's a very forgiving bike. Super easy to ride and handles like a mountain bike in the woods. So light that you almost don't realize that you're on a motorcycle.

I call it my "trainer". I'm hoping to move up to something different next year. We'll see how that works out. This thing is a riot!
