F-Ya! great picture
Better you than me
Right?!
Stood up on it's nose and definitely spooked me, worst part was a 2.5 gallon water jug came loose and slammed into the dash. Some folks that were coming from the ridge opposite of the ledge said they were sure I was going over.

GOLD Star
Spent the weekend finishing up a build of solar water purifiers for a customer in Puerto Rico.
Late last week, during the final stages of the build, it became apparent that a SB50 bulkhead bracket would result in a much better solution than the pigtail that was in earlier models. Wits' End to the Rescue!. A HUGE shout out to Joey at Wits' End for overnighting me a quantity of his SB50 bulkhead brackets. Customer service doesn't get any better than that!
Thanks!
These systems fly to Puerto Rico tomorrow and should be providing potable water powered by sunshine by the end of the week.

New Matsuba u-joints in the rear drive shaft. After 285k miles my old ones looked fine! But I'm trying to solve a vibration issue so replaced them anyway. The truck does seem a little smoother after minimal testing.
Old ones, just dirty:

Funny I tested my new gullwing with a pressure washer zero leakage, probably going to order anotherDid some testing on my latest power set up
Ran my CampTeq heater all night long (~35° very cool for a AZ boy) along with my fridge and charging a couple accessories and woke to 12.45volt = No problems going forward.
Ran 100+ miles of slit like dirt only to find out my Gullwing Flip up windows offer superior dust control over my doors.

The new double seals on our windows are great and pressure washer tested.

Upgrades are coming.
Changed the oil and took a 1200 mile trip to complete some military training. Looked at a 200 series while I was there. Dealer offered to buy the 80 on the spot. Not happening, but about that 200...
I just did mine as well, and had the driveshaft rebalanced. I have a really good local shop - I went in for a full rebuild and they said splines were fine so I stuck with minimal work for $70. The joints always seem to test well by hand, but replacement made a big difference.
Still some slight decel vibe @ 70 mph, but as clean as I am going to get without going to a DC shaft.

Doesn’t read post longer than two paragraphs.
Hunting in Sawtooth, Idaho. Tree fell just behind the 80 from the weight of the snow.
