I'll give that a go and swap in my spare axle.

Still a little concerned it's in the diff based on the amount of play, but we'll find out.

At least a figured out what's causing all the clunking and popping in my front suspension.

 

It would only be the axle tube if that was the case. Look for cracking in the axle tube splines when you have the axle out.

 

Dang first gen falling apart...

 

I'll take a look.

I can move the inside joint up and down in the diff at least 1/2". So that joint is getting torqued and changing angles as I apply power.

Let me know when you have 285k miles on your rig that you wheel the crap out of.

I know we have a lot of members around the state. Much appreciated if you could keep an eye out for this trailer.

Would a 4 work? I have one with a cracked screen

 

Saw a badass second/maybe third‍ gen and a white first gen down in Lakewood this morning, they had Missouri plates and looked like they were ready to play!

 

Someone find me a buyer and 100 bucks will be yours!

 

Finally got to take it camping. My secret spot up near Long Draw. Only saw two vehicles for 3 days.




Dinner guest.


Mood lighting.
Banana's don't travel well.


Paper towel mod, best mod yet, can stay in place with the top down too.




Archer and I went exploring and found another abandoned FS campsite.
For an entity that's supposedly broke, they seem to have enough money to contract somebody to push over trees and fuck up stream beds in the process.










Thought about hiking up that, but that's as far as it went.


Still plenty of color up there.Trees below Rustic are still green.


And discovered passenger UBJ is oozing grease. Guess I'll toss in the SPC's that have been collecting dust.

50w Solar panel was enough to charge the battery by the end of the day and it didn't start early cause I slept in. I ran the furnace all night, just to see if it could replenish what was used. So that was kind of cool.
Fridge stayed at 39 degrees the entire time. Freezer kept my burgers frozen solid.
Furnace cooked me out of the thing with the outside temp at 29 degrees Friday night.
Having pressurized water and a real sink was awesome. First time I came home from camping and all the pots and pans were clean.

 

That's super old, looking for at least a 5s. Thanks for the offer though

 

Electrical interference question...maybe someone has ideas.

At the station, there is a speaker that broadcasts calls in the living area on the far wall. On an opposite wall is the kitchen. When the dishwasher is run, it will randomly buzz through the speaker. Only buzzes when it's running, fine otherwise.

 

Put a choke on the speaker wire?
Or maybe it needs to go on the power wire for the amp that runs the speaker? Hell, I don't know.... should probably get an answer from someone smarter than me.

 

Put a ferrite bead(choke) on the power wire of the amp or radio power wire.

 

No idea what that was.. But the Google helped. So something like this? Does it have to be sized or just big enough to fit on the wire?

And should this thing just be clipped on between the plug and the radio?

 

Correct part, I’ve seen them clip on the wire like the pic while others do a complete loop (in, out, around, in out the other side) not sure which way is better.
It can be larger, just wrap the cord.

Between the plug and radio, correct

 

Anyplace still have good leafs? Parents are coming into town for the next week and I was looking for someplace to take them preferably within a few hours of Denver.

 

I think @Gramps was by deckers and they looked good. In South park, most have already fallen along most of the 10 mile and mosquitos. I've heard Kenosha is fairly bare as well.. Also heard that it looks like a trash dump up there from all the front range peepers cleaning out their cars after looking at the leaves.

 

We were up off Kenosha doing some disbursed camping Saturday and it was almost completely bare. But holy shit, the place was like Disney. I don’t get it. The leafs weren’t even good but there were still 900 cars. Might try up by aspen. The webcams at snowmass look like they are still going.
