    A little more than 2 months to go!

    For me:

    Trackbar bushing replacement - I didn't keep up with the bolts, and my 60d KOR bushings got sloppy. Just got the new ones today from Kevin - DONE!
    New boots on my Currie TREs - 2/3 done...the pitman arm side is stuck like it's welded...and that's the worst of the boots
    Full Clayton inspection, tighten everything up, make sure the welds are all holding up
    Partial tuneup - plugs are pretty new, but cap and rotor are getting old. Need to troubleshoot the hard starts I've had lately. -- Battery disconnects appear to be resetting the computer, hard starts are better.
    Find whatever the hell kills my Optima overnight if the dome lights have been used at all....grrrr!!! - DONE! Fan controller was the culprit...installed a kill switch for when I'm parked overnight.
    Typical TC/Diff/Crankcase oil changes - my Clayton belly skid should make the TC interesting - DONE!
    Possibly balljoints, I think these are getting pretty worn


    Shopping list for consumables
    Better spill kit packaging - I like Dave's catch pan with a screw-on top. Absorbent and pig-mat fit inside those really well.
    Replenish the spare fluids in my ammo box
    Make sure my existing spare parts are in there, and find room for the others I've always meant to bring


    Holy shit that's a helluva list. Better than last year I guess. That was Clayton install

    Add on 4.5" RE coils from 93ZeeJay...hopefully...

    Nothing since I don't think I will be coming. Trying to get a promotion at work and taking off the last thing I want to ask for now. Maybe if I don't get it, I will come.

    Glad to see the trail list got expanded. I ran Kane Creek on Saturday and it is very washed out. If you don't like really tippy spots, don't run it but once you get through the tippy section, the lower creek section is very fun.

    Had that go out on my way to GSW 3 years ago, 80 miles east of Barstow in 105+ temps! I had been losing coolant for awhile over a couple of months before I left town, but never could see where it was going. AAA Premier was my friend!

    Lame.


    I've got most of my bigger projects done. Need to do some fluid changes, bolt tightening, figure out the gremlin in my CB power supply, and go through the front suspension for a weird popping noise.

    I put on my new shocks last weekend, get my windshield done next week and hope to have my front driveshaft re-balanced next week too. Other than that just basic maintenance items.

    Added a brake fluid flush today...Speed Bleeders FTW - 30 minutes with 2 beer breaks and I'm done

    Looks like Saturday will be for finishing up the Heep and making sure the trailer is in good shape. I'll pick that up from my brother's house on Friday.

    Well I was going to do something about my steering and cocked steering wheel but as luck would have it Currie made a mess of shipping so instead of last week HD drag link and tie rod will show up Monday. Awesome. Not. So pretty much maintenance and that's all done. While changing rear diff fluid I discovered that I've no breather on the axle and the plug damn near exploded when I loosened it. Just glad that I haven't actually blown the seals, they must be some tough motherfuckers. I got my flopping exhaust fixed so pretty much pack-and-go and I ain't got much to pack.
