Managed to source and install all 7 OEM brake lines and the busted hard line. Still missing a couple locking clips which should be in tomorrow morning (of course the old clips from the old aftermarket lines didn't fit). A full flush and bleed and then all I have to do is actually pack. Gettin there.

Anybody been to Canyons of the Ancients? We’re going Sunday and Monday and have never been. Good spots to hike around? Good places for non-crowded dispersed camping? Anybody going to be out that way?

A few years ago my wife and I joined some friends for an 11-mile loop hike that was great. Shorter loops are available in that same area. We started from the south end of the Sand Canyon Trail, then cut over (0.7 miles) and did the north and west sides of the East Rock Creek Trail, and back to the trailhead (1.2 miles). Here's a map:
We've never been to other parts of the monument except the Visitor Center and Museum, which is nice.

You want to see a rare sight? I had a good stretch of road with a slight down hill near Green River, UT. A happy 2F and 5 speed combo.Good to hear Tucker. Looking at your gauges…a very rare sight…at least on mine, doing hiway speed AND fuel gauge more than 1/2.
(Yes my speedo is accurate) at about 2600 RPMs in 5th gear

@Rockymtnreaper that is rare indeed. 85mph and only 2600 rpms. The value of the 5 speed.
This, right next door to Sand Hollow!!!

For those who arrive Saturday and want to do some mild wheeling/sightseeing on Sunday, Kay and I are planning on driving from US 550 near Ironton, up Corkscrew Pass, then down the "middle" road through Gladstone and down to Silverton. Of all the times we've been to the San Juans, going back to 1986, we've never been to Gladstone before.
I might be interested. My reservation is only for 4 days (mon to thursday) like to be there sunday to saturday
