I have seen a couple of those trailers for sale on MP, One guy said it weighed 2800 lbs. Is that correct? Can't weight that much?

23Zero displays the weight of their tents in ounces so dude probably meant 2800oz. Which their walkabout 62 weighs.

I have never weighed mine. I should just to know.
Maybe stock it weighed that much. Those old axles, wheels, and tires weighed a tremendous amount. I remember when I swapped mine out it was night and day difference

Working on the swing out. Getting closer. Thank you for the advice at the meeting from a couple of you. I opted to use what I have and have a 1.5 shear 
drilled a tapped an m12 into the spindle from the bottom. Will add some bolts into the bumper for added support and then to figure out the latch. I have some ideas but still figuring it out.

Replaced broken hand throttle cable the other night. Installed blue hub radiator fan
Unfortunately installing new rear calipers did not seem to change my right rear hub temperature any significant amount. I may be at the point of they are what they are. Plan to do window run channel on front left window this weekend. Helping a buddy Saturday morning install a transmission in his 68 Firebird.
If anyone wants to use the BG brake or coolant flush machine's, give me a holler. I have no plans really, so should be around most the weekend.

Did some pm on my 4wheeler. Front brake pads, tie rods, spark plug and oil oil filter and diff fluids. This thing had been run hard! Should be good to go once I get it back together.
So, the LT / LS swap world as far as i can tell has adopted a consensus that the GM engine oil cooler is a “don’t really need to have” thing. Let’s say they are right.
I took the power steering cooler paper clip off the 80 in some feverish gotta have new and better radiators buying spree (i did need a new water radiator and the ac one looked sketchy), but now i’m not exactly sure where i’ll put this mini replacement guy.
Any reason why i could / should not just use the engine oil ports on the big water radiator for the power steering system? I’m putting in a hydro brake booster too, so I don’t think it could suffer from being overcooled (unless I am wrong).
Pressure?

Do not use for that. They are for trans cooler. It helps warm up the tranny and cool the coolant. You may still want to have an aux tranny cooler up front. You can re-use the factory aux tranny cooler. Make your own ps cooler out of a finned cooler.

FYI I do not have an oil cooler on my race car. Some do, I do not.
Didn’t get any pics and I didn’t actually work on the 80 but Ed charged up the AC in my LC yesterday and boy it’s nice having AC again. Huge shout out to him for that!

Sad thing is the whole housing has an O-ring seal on it and the hub flange has a seal on it. Now sure how all that mud got in there @FamilyCamper ???
Let say I had to get out the torch to get things apart. The mud is baked onto the drum. I am going to let it soak in Kerosene for a day an see if it will come off. Wire brush, wire wheel, sand paper, metal scraper and razor blade could not get it. Drum is $300, so I will find a way to clean it.
new shoes, seals, hub are on the way!
