Lost lake and some poser shots on the boulders. Apears it was a logging lake where they floated the logs and loaded them on a train. The levee and train bridge has been washed out many times and was finally left to the woods.20200906_150803.jpg20200906_150911.jpg20200906_150805.jpg20200906_145951.jpg20200906_150028.jpg

So on the way up to the campground this last weekend I noticed my ABS light kicked on....after reaching the campground and shutting the truck off and turning it back on the next morning the light was off and stayed off all day...on the way back home it came back on, I noticed anytime I reach 60MPH the light kicks on. What's the deal?

could be a abs sensor in one of the front hubs, or the electronic brake control module located on the drivers side frame rail near under the front seat. 2 very common causes for the abs light but really need to have codes read to know the proper place to start.

I hate shops.....I've never been to one that's not tried to screw me.....but as far as that If the light is not lit up will they still be able to show a code? it goes out every time I start it and I hardly ever get over 60mph.

Ok I'm ordering tabs to finish my bumpers and just realized I didn't put any recovery points on it...…I've been trying to keep the weight down and my rear bumper is from 1/8" material with 3/16" mounts (I pulled my 11k lb work truck with the E brake on just to see if it would bend the bumper at the receiver and it had no problems) and my front bumper will have 3/16" material to weld too will this be strong enough to weld some D ring mount to? I have a spot that would work its 2" wide and about 6" long welded on all 4 sides.

For now the abs light has stayed off....??? Been working on my bumpers still boxed in the front mounts and started on winch channel placement and CAD for my skids. I still have a 5.5ft x 4ft shert of 3/16s to chop up and use for skids.20200921_223646.jpg20200921_224121.jpg20200921_224229.jpg20200921_224524.jpg20200919_160559.jpg20200919_162741.jpg
