2006 Ultimate Adventure - Part 1
However, the worst-case scenario happened to invited reader Carl St.Clair when what sounded like a driveshaft CV going out was found to actually be another broken ring-and-pinion. We were just 20 miles from our destination so a member of the video crew found us a trailer to drag the St.Clair Toyota on in, since locking up your rear axle at speed is not a good time. Luckily the crew at D&D Tire in Elko stayed open late and offered a rack to make pulling the third member way too easy. And finally, the miracle of all miracles, a local wheeler happened to have a spare 5.29 Detroit-locked Toyota third member that he loaned to Carl for the remainder of the trip. By midnight he was back up and running.
