    sounds like power steering belt or something wrong with the pump. Where is the squealing coming from?

    Worked rear but from time to time the lights in the tent were randomly flickering, it kinda looked like stars twinkleing haha. I will most likely swing by your place today or tomorrow.

    Glad to hear you're doing better, Tom.

    I'm booked up for the next two weeks, but I'm off work 1/19-1/21 and 1/26-2/1. If you guys want to put something together during those time frames, I'd be game.

    Looks like a good time! I miss winter camping. It looks like you're up on top of the ridge overlooking La Cueva and the turn off to Fenton Lake right? I'm thinking of the spot right off Hwy 4 a few miles after you pass La Cueva where it makes that big turn to the right and heads up the hill... before the big bend to the left.

    Jan 19 is MLK day and I'm off. I'll take some time tomorrow to start some planning and organizing.

    BTW, I still have your Christmas gift.

    Oh yeah, I forgot about that. We did the Tank Trap/La Bajada run for MLK Day last year. Funny how the timing works out, huh?

    A Christmas gift? Why, that's nice of you, Tom!

    Is it a nose/ear hair trimmer? A Snuggie?

    Thank you! Now after reading my question again, what I meant to say does anyone know of a auto salvage yard besides upullandpay where you can pull your own parts? I'm fixing up my old toyota truck and am really on a budget:)

    5J's has a stock pile of parts that are already pulled but their prices are very reasonable.
