- kcstepp1992ExplorerPut some new metal trim on the sides of it and screw covers too. DS painted cabinet doors and the bathroom door. Using the hacksaw on that trim left my hands good and sore but man it looks so much better.
- BigdogExplorerGot it back from the radio shop today after having them install the new backup camera cable to replace the one that was pinched when the roof and driver's window were replaced .Man,believe or not,it actually has a clearer pix than before.
Knew I shouldn't have washed it a couple of days ago as we've had almost 3" of rain the last two days and now it's all dirty again before we head out.
Finished LOADING it for the San Diego trip to watch the Grandkids there while they're on spring break.:B. Sunny and 20 degrees warmer than here.:B.YESSSSSS :B:B Taking off in the AM and will be stopping off in Vancouver,Wa.to see the new GREAT-Grandson.:B. - EckEExplorerInstalled a lift chair from http://www.travelliftchair.com/ for my handicapped daughter. Now it is easy to help her into the MH.
- chipndipExplorerRan the engine for 15-20 minutes and exercised the generator for about 2 1/2 hours.
- JimGoExplorerBought it a TOAD
- slemnahExplorerWent to Palm Springs last weekend and and while I was there had it washed and waxed. It sure does look pretty! I did find a toilet leak and will have to order a new valve and install it. Trying to find an excuse to go out again this weekend.
- sundancer268ExplorerReceived my Cummins Service Manuals and fuel filter today and started reading them. I still need to get the Oil Filter and change the oil. Last Lab Report recommended I change due to High Wear metals. Could be from the few hundred miles it was run with the air compressor suction hose off and sucking unfiltered air. Change this spring and re-sample in the fall. Reading the Manuals answered a lot of questions I had. I will take one to work tomorrow and read when I am on break and lunch. The Fumoto Valve came on Monday along with two new tire pressure gauges. One Cheap Mechanical and my third AcuTire Digital. If this one fails I do not know what I will be able to find that will be digital. I just seem to get them out of warranty and they fail. Last one was the display where some segments of the 10s digit would not work. Hard to tell if it was three or eight or 9 and this sucked. This is Acutire's last chance.
- Canadian_RainbiExplorerYesterday, cleaned the front windshield by driving it up the 101 through the rain in Northern California. Today: More of the same in Oregon on the way to Albany. Why won't the rain clean the rest of the rig? Not going to mention the Jeep.
We miss Zihuatanejo! - SRTExplorerNot going anywhere with the road restrictions in place. Limit is 5 tons. Plus our road has some soft spots that will take some warm weather to dry out. It was 29°F with a wind this morning.
- BigdogExplorerFired her up so that I could bring the tires back up to even pressures and found that only one out of six was really a bit off after 6 months of use and non-use.Washed her and used soft-scrub on the wheels and that made a big difference.Ran the diesel gennie for about 1/2 hour and ran both a/c's down to 45 degrees and froze out the inside. Man are those things good.
Waiting for the new back-up system cable to come in from RVcams so that I can replace the one the shop pinched when they put the new roof on and replaced the wood on the driver's side wall where it was all water damaged.
That done,we should be almost ready to leave Friday for San Diego for the first major trip of the year.:B:B
