I did smell a shot of burned rubber when it acted up, so I guess the u-joints or cv joint under the boot got hot and made the stink? But again... ignorant. Stupid ignorant fat balding coyote trappers anyways...

I called Pats before they fixed it, to explore my options in case the dealership wanted huge money, they told me to yank the driveshaft and drive without it and they'd fix me up for about $500, and Martin Chrysler said they had a front driveshaft in stock $825 installed. So I went with the Dodge part, was sitting right there and I didn't have to wait til Tuesday to get it fixed and drive everywhere and wait til Wednesday to get back out killing coyotes! Time is money!

Tis the season to be jolly... in the coyote killing enterprise! They are bitin' REAL GOOD!
Right on. That's great news. Just checked in on this thread to see how it went
