    KISS Drawers (Keep It Simple Storage) for 80s

    When I was deciding on drawers I also looked at Drifta. They are based in Australia, but have a distributor in Vancouver BC. They are simple, but well designed utilizing at the time (may have changed) UHMW plastic for slides. You may want to check those out too.

    show us your kayak/canoe mounts or methods

    I’m utilizing a Remakle 4 place trailer. Cargo in the back. Canoe mounts are removable and becomes a utility trailer quick.

    That’s where I’m at. I’ve enjoyed my experience working with that company, but the horror stories about turbo orders…😱 Let’s say I’m going to hold off buying that head gasket poster until the dust settles.

    A wiring harness no less, that clearly states due to shortages this may take a really long time to make—expect delays. I’m still a happy Wits end customer. The wiring harness has a couple of minor issues, which I’ll illustrate in a future post..

    Found the EWD! Love my physical paper copy. I have found the electronic ones great in a pinch, but I have very much enjoyed using the paper FSM and EWD supplement. House is nice. Fam likes it. Garage has no allies. Its days are numbered.

    ARB Air Locker and QPM project resumed It has been a few months of unfulfilling winter here in MN. Plenty of salty roads and coldish temps, but no snow.

    Let's baseline my grandma's neglected, (20 year old to us) 1997 LX450

    It feels kinda like prison. It started snowing today, and that means the plows and salt are coming. It felt good to put it away and save it some salty wear and tear, but it also feels a shame since it does really well in the snow.

    Update Today I finished my Speedo correction. That was nice. I also replaced my rusty old ARB turn signal with fresh one. I also rented an underground garage stall in my MIL’s retirement community building. 70 degrees and salt free. While the cruiser sits for the winter I’m planning on...
