Correction on the year, its a 2006

Believe me, I understand. The boy's bike is under a tarp as well. still not enough room inside to be able to do much. glad we pulled the swing arm and diff out before the rain hit. Was able to pull it apart and found, I guess the usual. Rear axle and diff splines both stripped. Some one ahead of our ownership had tried the old weld the carrier to the axle. In theory not a bad plan, just makes it a little harder to repair later and I know that the parts are not really expensive, but I like to make old things work again. Good exercise for the boy to see. So over a few evenings, I bored and sweated a bushing into the carrier spun what was left of the splines off the axle and put in a set of keys. Worth a try. Will let you folks know how it works out. Sorry for getting off topic, and don't want to seem to be trying to hy-jack this thread or any other. Some times I have way to much to talk about. So If anyone is feeling that way. I am new and enjoying talking to all you folks.
