that's good news every little bit helps, Good now that you're back on the road maybe we'll get some rain, hurricane and all we still got dry ground

I'm taking mine in next week for servicing, any idea how much it will cost me to have them check out the drive shaft?

Just got mine done as part of a service - not the major one that requires your left and right testicles as deposit but a majorish one. Tightened the head stock baring too. Wasn't cheap, but I still have both balls.
Next time I'll do it myself but I wanted it done by the dealer so if something goes wrong on the trip I have some sort of comeback. He did the front and rear of the drive shaft.

OK, what is the deal with the drive shaft? Does it wear prematurely?

My rear differential was replaced three years ago Under warranty. I'm going to tear it down tonight and check the grease just for sense of mind, I know it was greased well when he put it back together I was there and I have not seen any leaks anywhere but you all have got me curious
