Broke my p500 riding Montana Mtn in AZ w/ @DGRider last eve. 8 miles before the end of a 30 mile trail. L Rr upper arm bracket ripped off the frame and pulled the L axle shaft out of the diff. WithDGs help we jury rigged it and drove to camp-2 hrs
So today DG shows up at camp with welders, jack, etc and we repaired it. Pics show using my winch (DG’s idea) to pull the arm into perfect position for both drive and repair. Drove it with the winch holding it together. WAs a little 110 v flux core feeder barely ran on my genny so welds splattered a bit but penetration is good. But we got her fixed permanently. He drove an hour each way to bring the goodies.
When you have troubles it’s easy to count your blessings and good friends. Killed his Sunday and wouldn’t even take gas money for his troubles. Helluva man there. Much respect to DG. I’ll pay it forward like he asked.
