What have you done to your ride lately?

At the point that brass fails you have had other problems.

Precisely why I opted for it instead of plastic.

10hr service interval done on the tracked Orange.

Oil change on the Ferd F150screw @93k

Think I need a new heater core for the Ferd. Guess I’ll do some more troubleshooting in that tomorrow to make sure that’s what it is and then try to get the parts to do it next weekend.

Only 964 more to go!! You need a mini-excavator.

That one attachment is like a feral hog.

gotta start somewhere

Yeah, that grubber is a bad ass attachment for pulling up the brush and trees, made out of 3/4" AR 400 steel on the forks.

About finished installing the hitch in the ford and of course the last bolt looks like this out of the bag (didn't notice it at first). Etrailer is sending me out a replacement bag of hardware. It's a 9/16-12 grade 8 carriage bolt, couldn't find it locally otherwise I'd have just picked one up and been done with it.

Threads look fine to me. Run it down with the impact.

Trust me if i could have got the damn nut started on there straight I would have. Parts are supposed to be here tomorrow, I'm not in a rush, I've had the damn hitch halfway installed since June

 

[Taco Loco]

All the oils were changed, oil & air filters, spark plugs, new uca delta joints & bushings, stab bar bushings, exhaust work, new brake fluid and bled the brakes.

Was running some errands today when all of a sudden there was an odd plastic rattling under the hood. It was enough to get my attention but not so much to make me pull over immediately. I was headed to a friend's house so I popped the hood there. The idler pulley for the superchager & alternator was 100% loose. The bolt holding the pulley on had backed all the way out. I used some of the tools to put it all back together properly (with a dab of lock tight on that bolt) and have to order a replacement belt tonight.

Looks like I am doing some maintenance this weekend.

 

[AlienXtx]

I feel like you are always having to dick with that thing

 

[PSU Taco85]

Maybe some safety wire to keep that bastard in place.

It was pretty solid for the first 150k miles that I owned the vehicle. I really need to get better on my maintenance schedule again. When I drove it a lot for work I was really good about it but now I am much lazier about it since I only drive it a few times a week maybe. But this pully was recently replaced and then this bolt backed out. Other than that not much of an issue.
