Started a few small projects in preparation for the NWOR trip this month.
Picked up some kitchen stuff. I used to just use all the stuff from our old travel trailer when we still had it stored here at home. Now that the new one is at a storage lot, I have had to make up a kit for the CDN M101. Picked up a nice set of MSI stacking pots and pans, cooking utensils, a used kettle and cutlery (Ikea stuff) and of course a can opener.
I am also making dividers for the Plano storage bins I have in the trailer for all my stuff. Ok, I made up the template and Mike (Wavebreaker) is making the dividers. This will help a lot with storage management!
I am also going to go and do some additional wiring on the trailer today. Adding a few exterior lights and a charge line so I am charging when I am towing. I meant to do this last year, but never got around to it.
I am also doing some work on the XJ to get it ready. It is my second vehicle and it sits more than it gets used these days. In the last year I have only put 2500 KM on it...wow. Did the front brakes last Friday (my birthday gift to myself and onmy BDay day off). I gave everything a good bath with Simple Green and scrubbed it all down before putting the nice new rotors and pads on.
Old pads were low, but the rotors are still well within spec and in good shape. Might give them to someone as a "pay it forward" thing.
Next up, replace mechanical fan as the clutch seems to be not working so hot (pun intended). Got a freebie from Mike off a jeep he parted out, might go install that today?
More soon.
