I hope this dipshit exploded into a ball of fire on his way home... fucktard level "Extraordinaire"

My truck drinks fuel at a very rapid rate so I will be bringing more than most... probably 20 gallons. 10 on truck and 10 on trailer.

 

[tex]

I will have 5 gallons. It may not be needed, especially if we pass through a town but it's good to be prepared.

 

[Silverback]

I probably won't need it.. but I'd rather have it.

 

[tex]

It also makes a great fire starter

 

[Silverback]

I've heard fireworks also work well.



Which sucks!!

Buy some fuel injectors and new coils, and plug the hole in the gas tank!!


Side note; I need to put my truck on the back on the lift and remove the gravel rocks located between my tank and straps.... I noticed the rocks when replacing the rear brake lines.

So consensus is a spare 5 gal. can in case shit. Easy enough.

Tires scheduled for Saturday install as long as they come in before then.

New winch shipped out... but its coming from Portland and I got UPS notification that its going to be delayed due to "An emergency situation or severe weather condition has delayed delivery." Probably those fires out there causing the delay.

Nice! what Circuts breaker do you use?

 

[Silverback]

None.. Might put a big ass on-off switch on this one though.

Yes I'm going to add a marine blue seas switch rates for 350amps and I was thinking of adding one circuit breaker 200amp one or atleast inline type fuse

 

[Silverback]

I read my new winch can pull 540 amps.. I need to order this one https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Systems-Heavy-Battery-Switch/dp/B01E53580Y

 

[Silverback]

Also, my last winch made by this company came with a circuit breaker for it. This one might as well. My Warn did not and I just made sure to run heavy gauge wire and keep it protected and up out of the way.

Yeah I just realized how much they draw, I will get the larger switch as well.

 

[Taco Loco]

What size wire? 4/0?

 

[Silverback]

I went 2 ga.

Big apartment. It's 15x the size of my apartment .

dang, I've got a 1000 sqft I share with one roommate in Fayetteville. It's nice

thats not the living space.. that is the yard.

figured so

Since @MatthewMay1 isn't going, is there room in the tent for me to snuggle with @tex ?

I have a few to do items as well. Finally get my CB tuned so that it is usable and return the SWR meter to Aaron. New tires (Currently at 60k on General Grabber AT2s). Gear oil in F/R Diff and Xfer case. Install extended rear brake lines. Possibly new front brakes, but not necessarily. I'll need to do all the standard stuff like spark plugs, etc. once we get back.

Unless I'm the only one with who is going to use a CB. I got approval to go on the trip, doubtful that I'll be able to spend extra on the handheld radio.

Nobody ever said anything about snuggling

No room to snuggle me. Sleeping in a hammock.

Good choice. Get those Atlas straps yet?

Alright this trip is right around the corner now. @Silverback and I were talking over some of the basics of this trip over the weekend. The main thing being to make sure we have at least a couple of chainsaws, everyone has the right recovery gear, and it is a good time. The only thing I am going to be really watching for is water levels in the rivers.
