i am curious as to how you like the black hub with 10k. i think that's what i am going to do next.

I haven't had a chance to drive the truck yet and wont for another week or so, but I will let you know how it goes.

Took it to @murf at Riverview to have the brake booster replaced and a couple other things! Fast, reasonable and he’s got a guy who knows 80’s!

Funny story, most of the service techs are younger than my rig and when I roll up they’re looking at it like it’s a space ship! Ogling over it, they asked a bunch of good questions! It was like the bonus round of 20 questions! Hahhaa

Thanks Murf!

Thanks, Murf!

Painted my chrome semi gloss black. I didn’t blast the grille but I’ll redo it after a while. I think it’s much better than chrome.

I got a bit of time to test today, the black hub with 10k works awesome. I need to adjust it to kick on 10f sooner, but it pulls crazy amounts of air and disengages as it should. Right now stage 1 is kicking in at 143f air temp off of the fan. In water it stated to open stage 1 at 124f. Stock was 113f, and I think that is about right on these.

Nice quick projects this morning. Hood to cowl seal # 53383-60031. Didn't intend to paint but figured since new seal had to clip into the cowl might as well clean it all up. SEM Trim Black 39143

Trail ride to Pyeatt Draw yesterday, and today we did the vehicle tour at the Phoenix Zoo. Pretty cool to see it from the comfort of your vehicle. Put the Landcruiserphil a/c fan to the test. Speed limit was 4mph, but there was a decent amount of sitting in one spot. Once engine temp hit 221, we shut it down and opened the windows. Probably one of the few chances to see that variety of animals from my cruiser.

Put a couple of boat hatches in tailgate plus a cutting board.

We made the long weekend longer with a self-supported five-day tour to the New Mexico border and back by way of the Mogollon and eastern Arizona river country. Lots of fly fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing and photography; great food, oxygen-rich sleep, and fine company.

That's a yellow warbler. One of the more conspicuous birds you'll see in the cottonwoods and sycamores along our AZ rivers. Yellow Warbler Identification, All About Birds, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

Get any fishing done? I'm looking to take my fly rod up to the White Mountains for 3-4 days and see what I can get into. Haven't fished with a fly in well over a decade (and never in Arizona) and forgot everything! Also, would you be willing to PM any decent camp areas? Never been further NE than Payson/Rim Country.
