    I may have tweaked a few things...
    Last time I clogged my toilet we didn’t have a plunger. 15 minutes later there I was standing at the checkout with a cheap plunger and a 6-pack of Guinness.

    Sea Scouts, 1998, Sac delta, 110 degree heat onboard a decommissioned 1955 T-450 Navy ship. I clogged the vacuum toilet which was rumored to suck down a softball :oops:

    Disconnecting the vacuum line and hitting it with a damage control plug was one of the scarier moments of my life. You could hear shit rushing as soon as it was disconnected.

    Godspeed @T4RFTMFW :fingerscrossed:

    Thanks for the info Phil....not sure I want to put a snorkel on the truck. More decisions now.

    Hoping I can just run no fender liners and no snorkel like Sam...maybe I should've just bought a 4runner instead:crapstorm:

    I ran with no fender liners and no snorkel for a while just remember you will need to clean your air filter more often.

    Considering your logs are probably twice as big as normal humans'...you should probably put a larger drain in your tub, install a firehose, and literally drop the kids off at the pool.

    Completed my first two rebuilds last month. I would do it yourself just for the knowledge if you have the time. Super basic and only specialty tools I needed was a small pick to get seals out and spring compressors. I just watched videos and started learning as it tore them apart.

    So does that mean for $125 we could have them come set up their trailer at one of our mod days? That’d be rad.

    Drinkin beer on my couch in Alameda. Didn’t feel it. My house is right on the verge of the Intense to Extreme transition on the Modified Mercalli Scale. Only thing higher is Cataclysmic. Good thing the Hayward fault hasn’t gone off in some 160+ years :(

    Edit - not paranoid, but I have thought more than once while under the truck an earthquake would really suck right now. Hence my two back up jackstands and floorjack with light tension when I’m under the truck

    After looking them over I think they’ll be the best made component on the truck. I was impressed.
