Jennifer Boyd, Tim's wife, reached out to me on Facebook Messenger to let me know there's a Celebration of Life being held for Tim on October 11th between 1pm and 4pm at Wye Hill Kitchen & Brewing · 201 S Boylan Ave, Raleigh, NC 27603 -...
Odd that this thread came up. I was going to post something similar.
I used to get 150 miles to the middle line on the gauge. Less than that means I was driving too fast or too hard. Right before the light would come on, I would get 250 to 270...
Another option for cleaning up battery post terminals with multiple heavy gauge wires: KnuKonceptz: Home and Car audio accessories, including amp installation kits and speaker wire - https://www.knukonceptz.com/
Especially when you use there...

For auxiliary power for what I call “parked power” (power needs with the truck engine off) you currently have 3 popular options.
1. Buy an all in one unit “Power Station” “Solar Generator” like a Goal Zero, Jackery, Bluetti, Ecoflow etc
PROS...
From this view, house battery (second battery) on the left, starting battery on the right.
Normally, alternator charges starting battery and house battery when driving. However when the Cruiser is sitting for long periods of time with rock lights...
I just finished installing up my solar charging setup.
LIttle history.
I purchased a Renogy 200W solar blanket with N-type cells in July. My original goal was to use the solar blanket to charge my Ecoflow River while stationary at camp. The...
Camping and looking for elk. Did about 60 miles of dirt and ended up going down a gnarly trail to get off the mtn. I should have stopped to get better photos of some of the obstacles but I was dealing with a hangover from hell 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Just a quick ride in the desert yesterday, FR13 northeast of Phoenix. I somehow managed to surgically remove all the rubber from the frame-side mount of the right radius arm 😯🤔🙂. Shoutout to @richardlillard1 and @twalker9480 for putting some...
hood vents are not the solution if you have an overheating problem. With that said, it helps to keep your engine temp down within the engine bay. They could possibly prolong the life of the rubber hoses, plastic, etc. nonetheless. I have them...
The parts list that @jonheld posted is somewhere in the ballpark of $900. The $2k quote is the shop telling you that they don’t want to be involved, or it’s their penalty for rust. If every bolt is rusted shut, the $2k doesn’t sound too unrealistic.
It might be you sub-harness for the oil pressure sender.
I pulled my engine and had it rebuilt in the fall of 2021. A new oil pressure sender was installed then since the tab on top rusted and broke off the original. However after the engine...
As with Amazon the 4 post terminals are no longer listed.

I actually bought 3 sets of terminals. This was the only pair that worked well with the 24F battery posts. The others were too long to fit between the...
Big thanks to Shaun @angerhater for offering to help and Kurt @ Neslrac for hosting and helping get this winch installed before Logan’s Run. Kurt did win this winch for me so it was only right to make him put it on. This has been the last...
Follow on from yesterday and removing the old faulty booster.
Got the new booster set up, installed clevis to match position on original. Verified the master cylinder spacing of the booster nozzle/pin (whatever it is actually named). Was spot on...
