I should be back in town Sunday morning so I can help Sunday

 

Best use of winch I have seen this year. Notice @Star-Lord what can be achieved with a factor55

Thanks for the support and interest in helping. I'll post up some details when I figure it out. But probably wont be too early so front range peeps wont have to be up at the crack of dawn, but we'll see.

 

No worries on that, Asher probably would only make it worse.

 

That's mo' betta'! First thing I unpacked, scotch and scotch glasses...paired with sea salt boulder chips

 

In!

 

I'm Locked with a winch and down to help out. So sorry to hear about it man, glad you're alright

 

Is that cuz you keep getting older and the women at the bar stay the same age or...

 

That sucks

 

No doubt. Never had seat heaters in my 27 years of driving... not about to hook up the Subaru seat heaters in my seats now.

 

I use them on my Subaru every day, but they automatically turn off after about 15 minutes.

 

They worked fine.. think it was mainly the length of time. OEM and more expensive ones probably turn off automatically after a certain amount of time.

 

Definitely interested in hearing the details once figured out... things which are popping in my head right now are:
- attack from the east, i'm guessing
- means by which to lift the truck to install wheels (any lock lugs to deal with? if yes, did the lock lug key survive?)
- can the transmission be shifted?
- bring the trailer up as far as possible, or leave in a safe place and bring the truck to it?
- brakes and steering working on the truck? likely will need a recovery rig in front to pull and one in back to brake, and an extra right seater who is willing to steer
- pull pal/land anchor needed? since it'll be above tree line (Weston Pass is just under 12,000 feet)

I'll add myself to the list of volunteers.

EDIT: Don't mind me... I'm not trying to be pushy. I'm the planning type.

 

Plan is to drive trailer right up to it. We'll have to back down from the pass but it shouldn't be bad. And someone pulled it out of the hole I sunk in so the trailer can go in there and it'll be level with the deck to drag it on. The pass has a large parking lot area so turning around there will not be an issue at all. Oversimplifying... but that's the plan so far. Warm weather means (fingers crossed) there will be minimal snow. And it seems like hunters are still up in the area... at least there was a first gen tundra that was parked not far from my truck this morning.

Edit... a set of wheels/tires would probably make it quite a bit easier if there are any out there. I did check and all of the lug nuts loosen.

 

I don’t have a winch, but would be down to help anyway possible. I’ll be back late Thursday night, and I’ll be around all weekend. If the truck and trailer fall through I can try to get a trailer.
Let me know!

 

Is it strictly a module (or something?) in the seats themselves or part of the whole computer system?

Wiring up the seat heaters in my Forester seats to my truck doesn't seem so OEMish. Plus like I said, my ass has been fine without seat heaters for 27 years.

 

No doubt. But it's a risk I'm not willing to take.

Sorry for the shit you're dealing with, man. But TW is a solid crew that will prevail.

 

In my truck it’s hooked to the whole computer system (OEM). It automatically clicks on when the ambient temp is below 39. It starts on high and gradually goes to low then automatically shuts off. I can control it from my head unit or a switch on the dash.

 

where is this located?
