    Mechanic liability / customer recourse

    Unfortunately good diagnostic techs are tough to find and cost nearly as much as throwing parts blindly at it. Check with @84projectFORD he is a Duramax expert and may be able to troubleshoot over the internet or get you a resource to help solve it.

    Oh yeah, truck is still sitting in the same place gathering dust till the new rig is complete.

    @mjmaddox89 Nice, stick around and join in a few more runs coming up this fall. It is funny to look back at 13 years of trips with this truck and see how many different people have been along for an adventure. Some of my best friends have started out as randos showing up to an internet invite.

    Prime Day?

    Ah, that is the same one as the Summit Racing labeled one. I ended up picking up the Setpower PT45, they had a coupon on their site for an additional $25 off too...

    Prime Day?

    Which fridge did you get? Currently looking at the Setpower PT45 but a wheeled one might be nice.

    Rusty Red

    Worked for me for about 10 years, even had the wife proficient doing it at AAA. Only once did AAA bug me about changing the primary residence on the insurance but they were good with me saying nah.

    Rusty Red

    I was in Pismo with my 1UZ and was running with Tommy in his SC 3.4 through the beach whoop section. I could pull him off the line and through mid range but once his SC wound up he would start walking away. If you buy a Sequoia I may be interested in the body to keep as a spare

    Rusty Red

    I wouldn't dispute any of that. I have a '91 1UZFE and while parts are still available the last junkyard motor was a bit tough to find, probably has 250K miles, all the rubber had turned to plastic, and most the plastic was super brittle. I will say it does behave differently than my DD Tundra...

    1988 Toyota Pickup

    I used 89-94 4runner seats in my single cab which sat pretty close to the floor and the back wall and world's better than the bench. I found a second passenger seat and used the bottom foam and cover to redo the clapped out drivers seat.

    I'm bringing the only son that will prioritize off-roading so it'll just be Seth and me again. I'll have my ears on

    I'll be at Briggs cabin tonight as well. Leaving after work so will probably be there by 8. Keeping expectations low so I won't be disappointed but want to get out wheeling.

    Marzocchi fork rebuild, who does it?

    You may try hitting up DVO Suspension. They were formed from ex- Marzocchi engineers and racers.

    35°41'46.6"N 117°57'55.7"W or 35°41'33.1"N 117°55'48.7"W are good sites with an old cabin in a wooded area or a grassy field with a big fire pit behind a brewery if you want to meet there Thursday night. I wouldn't mind exploring the valley around Ballarat, even seeing Barker Ranch if you wanted...

    We're out in dove springs this weekend and the weather has been fierce. Rain and hail on the valley floor and snow in the mountains. Should clear up by next weekend but we narrowly missed some terrible weather.

    @WW_RANGER_X yep, we'll be there. Looking like the whole family might be a long if I can figure out how to sleep everyone
