That's what I did last year.

What caused the clunk?

The sway bar disconnect lower mounting brackets were loose. Caused the disco to move up and down when making turns and bang when it hit its limit.

I just got back from FL and I'm leaking tranny fluid bad it looks like its comming from the the t-case but not sure yet.

I'd hate to say it, but if something miraculous doesn't happen in the next week, I think I'm out of this. Sad Finances just seem to be taking longer to process than we'd hoped.
Joe!

I'm not made of money, man. I was hoping to sell some stuff to pay for the trip but I guess I have a bad eye for what people want/need. Chrissy is also really swamped with her work, so me being away for 3 days with her having to watch our daughter (because she doesn't really trust me with her on the trails alone for some reason) is not going to help matters much at all. Like I said though, if something good happens in the next week, we'll probably go.
