I'm looking a new tires now so I'm still trying to decide between 285's and 315's, I do plan on building a low profile front and rear bumper including trimming the lower rear quarter panels so I think I make the 315s fit, there is a guy here in town that has 315s on he Silverado with minimal...

We have some on the farm and had water tanks in the back I don't quite remember how big I'm thinking 1000 or 1200 gallon tanks too much either way but we had two of them break the frame where the rear body mount bracket welds to the frame, now these were being driven down field roads, washboard...

Yep Missouri guy here I'm about 3.5 hours south of STL. if you think STL is flat you should see SEMO.

after installing the pump on the shaft.. I put the pickup screen and tube back in along with the OEM magnet, they say to remove it but I don't see how only having drain plug magnets do near as good of a job as the OEM that sits on the bottom of the case at the pickup screen where every bit...

pulled the t-case apart well I got a good start on it before my tools limited me. I need a stronger wider set of snap ring pliers, I was able to bend the then ones I have to open the snap ring to take the case apart but the snap ring holding the bearing on the shaft is way more stout and my...

after looking around the oil pan I thought I might as well pull the pan and replace that gasket too it appears to be leaking and with the trans and flywheel off looks like the oil pan with be a breeze. To do list: Finish the rear main seal Change plugs oil/filter change Check O-ring on oil...

Here is a little preview of the route we are supposed to take it has some back tracking and appears to be just forest service roads but that will be ok especially for the small baldish tires on the suburban. https://mooreexpo.com/smorr2moore-adventure-route

So during the Expo we will be doing a 3ish hour rally through the Ozarks so I thought I might need to do some maintenance, I got started on the rear main seal this but had a few distractions. There was no way I would have been able to take the exhaust off with out an impacted...I tried for 2...

Had a pretty good surprise today. I won a couple of things from MOORE expo, stuff that will really come in handy. My first time attending any kind of expo I'm really looking forward to it.
