still waiting on the terrain tamer birfs to show up, and the bearing/seal kits.. I also just ordered Terrain Tamer slotted disks/rotor and pads for front and rear, trying to improve braking while i'm down there, might as well replace the brake parts. front rotor splash gaurds arrived - very new and shiny. just waitning on parts, want to do it all at once. got a part cleaner for the garage, little 'mobile' one, that folds up, table top, will share info once used.
Pretty quiet in here... what are you working on? (2 Viewers)

I just watched the YouTube video! There’s only a couple of bolts and it pops right off.
PS have you guys seen Ryan's youtube channel? (otramm) his birf and breakjob videos are going to come in very handy!!!

PS thank you Ryan for the recommendation on the rotors/pads. I plan on having OTRAMM do some work on my center diff and tranny in a month or so, i'm on the wait list, he's 2 months out when we spoke a few weeks ago.

Wow... You're way out of the loop. He's been doing them for a couple years. Make sure you subscribe to his channel so hopefully at some point he'll get some sheckles from YouTube.
You are such a party pooper
Funny you mention it...that's exactly what I thought!
I know I went dark for a while. Been working an obscene amount of overtime and dealing with family stuff. I did put my bumper and winch on today since it was so nice outside.

Nice! Didn't know Southeast Overland was in the M416 replica trailer business. Going to have to look that up.
My trailer but they did all the repairs etc...I can't weld so they had it sand blasted and patched up all the holes. I still want a different hitch setup and extend the tongue but $ is short for now!

Finished rear pads and rotors.. only thing left is brake lines.
This is the parking brake pad, do I need to replace this or do they still have life left?

Perfect! I didn't do anything with them. Just tightening the parking brake adjuster to actually hold the rig. Wanted to make sure it wasn't something I need to replace soon though.
Might have hydro assist done in time for the Relic Run.
Limited time this weekend but installed a new VSV valve for the push button 4wd and a new HVAC fan resistor. I’ve got the low speed back!
Nice to have a few quick wins after battling the spring pins last weekend.

Got my radio face plate mounted up using RAM mounts and a sweet 3d printed ash tray insert by @OverlandImage. It's a little longer than I anticipated so hopefully it doesn't vibrate too much on the road. Still need to wire up the face plate to the base until in the back. I also built my own base to head unit wire out of slim line Cat6. I bought some RJ9 (headset plugs), cut the end off one side of the Cat6 and matched the pin outs of the stock cable and crimped the end on. I also bought some RJ45 couplers to use to extend the mic from the base to the front using Cat6.
Future table...
