@orangefj45 Valley Hybrids does as well. That’s 3! I put a blue marking for torque and a yellow for checking the torque again. But then again I’m not shop. 😀
Picked the troopy up from Terrain Tamer. @orangefj45 did the final check and wheel alignment. Replaced the H151 with a H152. I drove it home. First long (100 miles) trip. Love the way it handles. IP needs a bit more tuning. The turbo lags...

So while the troopy is being tested with Georg @orangefj45 ive been working on the galley. I’m using a CORIAN counter top. It is an amazing material. I had to counter sink the sink (😂) so built a frame from CORIAN and glue it on the bottom of...
