Ontario BS Thread

I have to plan a whole day for wiring because of the aggravation and breaks in between. My headlights are in desperate need of an overhaul for the past two years, need to fix some wiring issues. I remember what I went through to take them out and back in, it can wait

 

Same here, I drive at night stock, no big issues.

My main issues is more when reversing and not being able to see obstacles when going over a hills bump (only resolved with a front camera).

I would first install led on the rear

 

Thank you @ontarioyota im really enjoying it for sure. Love what you have going on with yours.

I had other tires I considered but ultimately thought about the amount of snow i drive through. I guess there's always a trade off

I have taken it to the ganaraska just to lightly see how it feels and performs and the tires were definitely the first thing i noticed were lacking.

Thanks again!

 

If any of you Ottawa crew are off work tmrw I will be heading up the hydro line in Calabogie. Then likely up to Crag or Sullivan to camp

 

I'm not out there but my brother in law has a cottage in greater madawaska. I'd certainly be up for exploring the area in the summer. Unless it's open in the winter?

 

Do I smell a weekend camping trip/trail run?

 

I may also go with duratracs again, on my truck I have done 5 hours drive on mud terrains without much pain. Also have an old set of duratracs, I did 4 hour trip last weekend, smother then the muds, they may vibrate a bit at 100kmh, but not very noticeable.
My main thing is to be able to go through hardcore mud, snow and rocks at the same time, so yeah, I may buy the same tires again.

 

I am planning already for January, most likely close to your old grounds

 

Anything OFSC is very off limits. As for winter wheeling I don’t enjoy it. The main hydro line access road is good to go at this time still as far as i know.

 

Old grounds.... ???

I'm getting old i can't think of where that can be...

 

This CRC 76026 marine HD corrosion inhibitor is nice. Sprays on almost like clearcoat paint. Once the propellant evaporates, it leaves a tacky soft film coat, giving surfaces a matte hue. Certainly easier to work with than Fluid Film, which stays "wet" and stains clothing if you accidentally brush against a coated surface. 5 cans were enough to spray the whole frame, suspension, and rear axle. The CRC spray placed tops in Project Farm's comparison testing.

 

Well, thanks for discovering this one for me. Got few of those and ordered plenty (15+ cans) of brake cleaner since it's on sale!

 

Get a trigger adapter for rattle cans if you haven't already. I used the Bondo-branded one: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/bondo-aerosol-trigger-0475759p.html It hasn't fallen apart after 5 cans!

 

I've got 2 of those, use them all the time

 

East ottawa

 

Hope to be going there in January

 

Old grounds or should I say by your former group

 

So the Calabogie area?? Yes after the Hydro dam.
Sounds good to me.

 

Only 1 corrosion control program was selected for use by the Canadian Military

Just sayin.....

It's awkward to use when you spray walls....
