Shrinkage isn't that another Seinfeld episode .

It was, but not strategic shrinkage! Lamb is taking it to a whole new level...

Still have some fractures left in the foot but i was able to drive it for the last time till spring...covered it up and disconnected to battery and stabilized the fuel.

Pulled the rooftop tent and bars so I can get it in and out of the garage during the winter. Time to start doing all the accumulated "little things" that have been ignored since we saddled up for Cruise Moab, the Pig Party and other summer adventures. And prepping for next spring and CM and the second annual Pig Party on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon.

Today I burped my cooling system, and found that the heater control valve was bent bad enough so that it wouldn't engage when you pulled the heat lever. Explains the lack of heat.

I need to figure out how to get it unbent without completely shagging the control valve. I imagine those are made of unobtainium.

i left one in Colorado junk yard thinking they still made them..it was basically mint i had pulled it all apart etc..left it in side the truck..it seems we all like to hoard piggy parts because its starting for myself!

I deleted the upper guard on the front bumper. I like the more stock look up front but I might do a lower profile style if I get a new winch.

I see we own the same handle retainer for the Jack-all

 

[Megadoomer]

Ya it's weird that you can buy those handle retainers anywhere. Even places that don't sell off road stuff. Plus I hate rattles, which is funny cuz I own a 47 year old pig.

Looked at my parts pig and 71s are different, they don't have that valve. I used an aftermarket heater and did away with all those controls.

I've managed to get it working again with no leaks. (so far) Will have to look in this down the road, though.

Looks great, and I really like your plate.

Why couldn’t a guy use one of these?

That one off the Pete is close, I grabbed one from a 60 series, it's really similar but will need to be mounted a bit higher on the firewall to line up with the cable location....ill take pictures when I get to it.

If you knocked the tabs loose on the Allis one, rotated it 90 degrees, I think it could be made to work without too much trouble as well.

I thought that Allis one looked pretty slick as well!
