I think my various oil leaks that get slung around the engine bay are keeping my steering shaft in top working order. Eventually I'll get around to finding and fixing them...

After a whole year of work, this is a very welcomed sight




Working on this off and on over a year.. I rebuilt an 04 case with 1.41 gears, HD cross pin, and of course CDL!!

Adding a reserve fuel can be the rover.



Bought the bracket, kind of burned out on making stuff...lol. Scrap guy at work gave me the jerry cans, painted them up...like new.



Need to come up with some brackets to attach can holder to ladder.

Replaced tie rod and Drag link with HD TerraFirma's, mine were toast

Greased the drive shaft again - it was due

Ordered a new Rotaflex, mine has some cracking starting - still usable as a trial spare.

Picked up an alternator (working), complete airbox and other bits for 80.00 CDN
