Was aired up in 10 minutes yesterday. I aired down to 11 and aired up to 33 front 32 rear.

Air Hub finally worked correctly and I have the compressor working.

Its an expensive setup, but its now mostly futz free so I can set it up and then go wander around and shoot the s*** with other folks on the trail.

I am guessing I probably have over 1500 in my air up air down setup. I have a bad back and just being able to set it and forget it is huge.

Also with my back issues, airing down to "Spinal Tap" pressure just really smooths out the trail. I feel like the Yoko MTs really come into their own at that psi.

I might even be willing to try middle saint vrain again. I turned around after a mile because I kept hitting my skids.
What size are your tires?
On my 315/70R17's BFG KO3's (almost 35"), I can be down to 11 psi and up to about 30 psi in about 10 minutes per tire. Although it's faster if I do ALL 4 at the same time with the manifold and divide by 4.
I could be exaggerating, it's been a while. I may have to go out a try it in my driveway today to get a solid number for you.
I've heard that using a manifold is actually faster since the compressor is freely pushing more air into 4 tires, than pumping hard on only one tire.
 
285-75r17 G003 Yoko MTs

I think its between 7 and 8 minutes for all four tires airing up and maybe 5 minutes airing down at most. I use my 4 way tires hose setup and do them all together.

I do plan on adding a small manifold and a Dwyer pressure gauge. So that will be another few hundred.

But the brushless twin is awesome. Has active cooling so leave it powered for 5-10 minutes after to let it cool down.

Just gettin' her broken in, right? Right? (Annoying winking and nudging)

Didn't see the 100k crossover since I was coming back from a late hockey game and oxygen hadn't returned to my brain yet, but salvaged the moment with 101010 yesterday.

You've gone digital! :p

I told Claude to quit sassing me and now my speedometer sends me threatening messages 🤣

I like Anthropic and Claude the best of them all, when they go live with the IPO this fall it likely will be my next investment. As long as it isn't overvalued by too much then.

My first programming language in college was APL. In 1976. By the time it was over I knew that I was more of a Systems guy and now Claude can replace those programmers.
 
Wow! Got a lot of mileage on that digital post!
Who knew there were so many geeks on here!!
 
Truck briefly through a P0006A code. Cleared it with torque.

Felt like it had a brief stumble while I was braking.
 
Oofta, yea... going to change my air filter but I dont think thats it.

Replacing my EGR valve is on my to do list at 90-100K miles\10 year mark. Along with a full waterside replacement, radiator, water pump, etc.

Occasionally I'll watch a GX Bob video some are good, some not so much but they are always entertaining. Last year stumbled across his EGR valve cleaning video which made me aware that they go bad around that point or sooner. I'll likely just replace mine but cleaning it may work and is a lot cheaper. Just for the hell of it checked and looks like they are $330 new from Bell. Or a couple cans of valve cleaner.

I am at 11 years and 157k miles.

I removed mine and cleaned at 140k, checking for smooth actuation. Nothing concerning at all. Sealing surfaces cleaned up well, actuation was smooth. Not sure it has to be replaced as a PM item but wouldn’t hurt and gives peace of mind.
 
Anyone looked at doing a heavy duty axle conversion on a 460. To either the Dana 60 from ECGS or the 9.5 from front range offroad fab?

Before I pull the trigger on rebuilding my 8.2 I want to look at my options.

Toyota has some pretty beefy diff/axles to choose from if you want to keep it in the family.
 
9.5" Axle for our trucks. Just needs to have tabs welded for kdss
