Got the correct Ball studs for my clutch linkage - and installed one of the two I got!
Also fixed the PS leak (hose had come off the metal line, even though the clamp was still tight and the metal tube is flared! :eek: It was replaed, with 2 clamps. I also refilled my empty PS resevoir with the Amsoil synthetic tractor hydraulic fluid and it seems to be working well.
I couldn't find the exhaust gasket I need to replace, so I tightened the collector bolts up for my Tuesday trip. Then pulling into the visitor center I found the gaskets in the glove box. (I'm only typing this so I will remember where they are!)
With all that done, I found a reoccuring problem yesterday of one of my hubs not engaging. I think there is moisture in there that is preventing it from locking in as this happens only when it sits for long periods of time with the hubs unlocked. Tuesday when I came home from the trail ride I drove in 2wd, hubs unlocked and parked it overnight. Then Thursday I noticed the hub wouldn't re-engage. Need to clean and re-pack bearings.
