I'm back!

[FJ40INTOW]

Well almost. The last time I wheeled was GSMTR 03. On this trip I broke my low speed gear in my Marlin t-case. Saski was feeling a little sick so I took her home. On the way we picked up a P-test. It showed positive! 7.5 months later Hannah was born. The truck sat in the garage until Hannah started to ask " when you going to fix that thing?". Talking about having two bird doggers in the family. Marlin was able to find me a used low speed gear. I hunted and was able to finally find some H41 10 spline tranny parts and get the driveline in great shape! The next step was reworking the fuel system on truck that has sat for almost 5 years.

Anyway, the FJ40 is ready to go. It still needs power steering but what the heck. I've had Popeye arms before.

I won't be able to make the annual meeting but plan make some weekend trips. I talked to Roger about renewing the STLCA membership.

Drop me a line if anyone wants to get together to work on trucks, swap parts, or just swap lies.

Mike,
Great to hear that you are back with a running Cruiser. Melissa always has a good supply of treats in the truck when we are on the trail and will be more than happy to share with you & Saski (as always) and Hannah too. Melissa and I will also be missing the Fall meeting, but I am hopeful for some of the rides over the winter (free of soccer commitments). Maybe we will get to see you then and catch up on the past couple of years. For example, I am officially an old man now with our oldest two attending UGA and it shows.

Have a great weekend and send hello to Saski, Hannah and your family for us.
