I'm looking back more to make sure compartments are staying closed. I have yet to replace the lock for the power cord, found out the lock for that compartment didn't work when I saw it in the rear view flapping in the wind.
Duct tape to the rescue.
Yeah. Need to change my location on the forum. This is fantastic considering I'm on a 1 grand a month fixed income from my VA check with nary a f'in job in sight here in fallon or even in fernley.
We found this tonight. Looked underneath everything every time we stopped and everything was fine...
anyone got a line on a new transfer case for cheap, preferably in trade of a Remington 700 Sendero in 7mm Remington Magnum with a leupold vari-x III 6.5-20x40 scope onboard? :P
Figured I would share this little gem we picked up for $1,800

Currently on our shakedown trip, we're parked in Pahrump, NV at an RV park.... dumped tanks for the first time, washout contraption we got at wally world worked well... although I ripped off the black tank's...
Ok, so can someone reiterate specifically what fluid I should be using in my '04?

That's why my winter ballast is 3 20' 1" link m88 tank recovery vehicle BII chains...
