I think I am leaving the top on just cause I have my tools in there until the day before I head out. Gotta stage my stuff today and tomorrow then load it up the night before. Gotta go over everything make sure it's all ready to go and nothings missing.

Yeah i do that 2-3 times before I get it right. still need a bolt for the hilift location and a few other things. I think I have my load locations about set although I wish I had a better spot for my shovel.
I am lucky to live in an area where half my neighbors are family and the other half know I can shoot from my bedroom window. plus the dogs wake me up when someone is in the yard. What time you gonna get to head up friday?

dang you have almost an empty truck compared to last time he is good people though and that sucks that he aint gonna make it. you got your other brother on schedule to leave when you do?

Dude I am all sorts of jazzed about this weekend. Kinda sucks that we lost so many people but what can ya do. it is a longer trip for those in sac and south. almost the same for the people in the bay area though...

I have Friday off so I can head out whenever. I sent you an email dark. Just tell me where to meet and when and I'll see you guys up there.

yep snow will fallow me up to you place. I was on google maps refreshing my memory where you live.

its good shaggy finally has a job the pays consistant. now he just needs to get busy getting his license.

I expected for many members to not make it north. People tend not to accept change. it natural in our culture, plus there is lots of time in the future.

My break pedal started getting very mushy today on the way home from work. Stopped at home and the rear right line was leaking out of the steel line. The line was smooshed between the axle and u bolt. It may have been routed that way or I may have caught it on my leaf install. Ended up having to replace it and re routed it on the outside of the u bolts. Glad it happened before the trail though instead of on.

Lucked out on finding it with time to spare.
That's one mod I would like to do. I have had my brakes checked and re checked with no answers to why my pedal is spongy. Mind you every thing works just the pedal is spongy. Would like to replace the master cyl with either a bigger master or the GM master. I kinda think that would do it.
I spent a few hours wiping down dust and started cleaning up the wheels a little. Over time the clear coat has done some nasty stuff so removing that and maybe some other stuff

John if you have not adjusted your ebrake cable which im sure is stretched, i bet that is the cause of your brake problems.

John101477

nah that all got adjusted about 6 months ago. The sponge has just been their since I bought it.
I will probably go ahead and buy the 1 inch bore master cyl from TG.

So where am I headed tomorrow and what time should I get there. I sent you an email dark. Don't know if you got it. I'm going to pack up tonight and should be ready to roll out anytime tomorrow.

John101477
