Just tried 285/75R18 (below image) but it was rubbing on the kdss arm even with the spacers.

Below for comparison with old 275/70 on rear and 285/75 on front:

Knocked out power steering fluid before dinner tonight. Been on the to do list for a while. Below is a picture of the old vs new. The old stuff smelled like burnt ass. I’m at 100k and I suspect it had never been changed.

Might want to top up that coolant reservoir when you get a chance - it's supposed to be at the "F" mark when the engine is cold.

I thought anywhere between the L and F when cold is fine. Regardless I'll be doing water pump and new coolant before LCDC anyways.
 
Now if there were a similarly cheap and quick option for the molding below the third row windows….
 
I built everything in there soooooooo I think I earned it 🤣
My son has absolutely destroyed my garage. He is heading off to Marine boot on Aug. 4th. He'll learn a bit about organization there.

How's Billings? Haven't been there in a while. Going to be heading up to Kalispell a week from Friday for a couple of weeks. I hope to get into Glacier for some camping if I can. Otherwise, will have to play it by ear.

Got to do the brakes on the cruiser before I leave. Got the Garmin Tread XL mounted on the Gamiviti.

Things are good down here, lots of recent changes and updates to the city. It's getting better and better all the time.

Sounds like you and I will overlap a bit, I'm headed up that direction on the 19th. My mom and dad live in Seeley Lake, so I try to spend some time there every summer. Some great scenery up there. Have you been in that area much?

I love Seeley Lake. When I head up to Kalispell, I take the 12 out of Dear Lodge to the 141, to the 200 and then make the right at the concrete cow at Clearwater to head up the 83 and Swan Valley. It is a much nicer drive than the 93. If Montana didn't tax SS income and other retirement income, it would be a no-brainier to move there. I have been going to Kalispell most every summer since 1978. To me, Kalispell is like a second home town. Heading up on the 12th and will have to be back in Lake Arrowhead on the 29th.

Better have your spot booKed already if you plan on camping in the park. Campgrounds are quite full already and a lot of the previosly FCFS are now reservation only.

Unfortunately, the campground I want to go to is a first, come, first served campground. No reservations. Years ago, I would write to the campground ranger who was a friend of mine and he would hold a spot for me. Unfortunately, his last year was when he was 97. He died a year ago at 102. He was a good man.

Tell your son that so long as he eats fast, yells loud, and does exactly as told it's a quick 13 weeks.

What MOS did he contract as?
