Now that Spring's here ... u-joint
So now that the snow's gone, took a look under the jeep ... and the
right front u-joint is toast ('96 Command Trac). Not a safety issue
since won't be using the 4wd just yet ... but it'll get replaced next
week or so. Just a heads up :-) ... might be a good idea to crawl under
and take a look.

off too long.
