@1911 Georg is where I bought my steel shims for the front a few years ago, I was hoping I wouldn't need to do the rear as well.

Add that to my list!

The never ending list.........

Ain’t that the truth.

Driveline 101

That is a ton of info, it looks even worse on my phone.

All of that and you expect us not to be jealous? And I suppose the beer is equal to the scenery and fishing...

I can’t complain.

Moose Drool reminds me of the "Saving the Old Rustbucket" Thread. That beer is legend!

Oh man, I can’t even come close to comparing with that thread!

Moose Drool is like the Natty Boh of Montana!

And here I thought it was a cleverly named, high-end craft brew. I've had more than a few Boh's through the course of my build.

Spotted another 40 about a mile down the road this weekend also.

We just got back from a trip to Jackson, WY. We visited the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. You live in some beautiful country out there. Liking the pics

Chips on the table.

I see your Moose Drool and raise you a Hemperor.

I worked on my 40 this week, took the extended shackles back off. After talking to @orangefj45 I am going to step back and try something else to beef up the rear suspension.

Cut some horse stall mat to make some floor mats, drove it around in the mountains, drank beer, fished, watched some horse race this weekend at a pub in a small mountain town, I still don't know why everyone was cheering so much! They did have good beer.

I have been spending a little time getting ready to move to another house, we hope to be closing on one at the end of the month.

Congratulations on the new house, it sounds like you are settling in nicely.

Thank you! At least now I’ll have a decent sized garage to work in! Down the road we plan on building a 40’X60’ ish workshop. Right now it is just time to get it bought and moved into.

I'd love to drop a # 14 orange Stimulator in some of those creeks.

#14???? You can toss big dries out here, the only time I tie on something smaller than a #10 is when I tie a caddis on for a finicky trout! Most of the time I’m tossing #8s and #10s! Sometimes you get lucky and can fish a #6 salmonfly pattern over rising fish!

Mostly fish dry flies on Hazel Creek up in the Smokey Mountains of North Carolina. Usually hit it the first of October. Awesome fishing on a good 5 days of camping. All natural Browns and Rainbows. Nothing like it. When I see the pictures of those creeks, man it makes me happy.

@Solace in Solitude I noticed there is a pretty big fire burning in your vacation spot in southern Colorado.
