Hope you're planning to bring some of those to the owner's rally next month, Mike! YUMMY!

Very nice! Love the classic boxers.

Is that a Russel day long saddle Bill? Super comfy I bet.

Looking good Mike!!🫐😋

Impresa Products Impresa - 2 inch Hitch Receiver Silencer Pad for Adjustable Ball Mounts - 3 Pack

Towing my Elite I with the Anderson hitch, I've encountered a lot of forward / backward sliding of the square shank within the receiver mount on my truck. It has been a cause of annoyance at stops and starts as the entire hitch can be felt sliding. Upon investigation I found that the hitch pin I was using is slightly undersized, as were most of the other pins in my garage. To remedy this, I took my calipers to Tractor Supply and mesaured every hitch pin on the shelf. The BROK locking hitch pin was the winner, at about 0.8mm larger diameter than the one I previously used. I also installed some rubber 'donuts' around the exposed shank to take up the slack. together these two measures have almost totally eliminated to back and forth mothion of the Anderson ball mount

I haven’t asked for a break out for the different replacements/installs.

Just so everyone knows, you don’t have to live on Blueberry Hill or farm blueberry's to enjoy some blueberry pie! Mossey

I love me a Boxer!

We spent a few years together. An '08 R1200R at a home we had in Lakeway Texas.

...or aluminum and rivets!

Mike knows how to get 'er done the right way! 😂 Wish I had an "Ollie Hanger" like @Patriot! You really need to "wax" undercover or in the shade. I don't believe I could get a permit for one on my property without spending a fortune. Local government is getting a bit Californian around here. And it's so hard to hide from the sun in the SW. It's another sunny day in Arizona, and our windy season just started. A couple months of wind until everything gets toasty dry out here! Each year we wait it out 'til the summer monsoons come.

...with all the Touratec options possible!

Ill have to look into that then must be a bad parasitic draw somewhere. i assumed it was the fridge because that was the only thing i had running aside from the lights and the maxxair fan on the lowest setting for a couple hours in the evening when id stop for the night on a 3 day drive from Norfolk Va back to San Antonio. mostly overcast but some partial sun i was down to about 25% on the batteries when i got to SA. wen i was driving the 2022 back from alaska i was only down to around 70% after 5 days with the fridge running on propane.

Nice, if I missed it, how much is Oliver charging you for the install?

The CGI team (4 young guys) worked on our trailer for about 10 hours. Power washer, multiple buffers, a lot of hand polishing and no beer drinking!!

True, but our Oliver’s could surely withstand more “tree” impact than a sticks and staples!

My ALCAN springs arrive tomorrow. Oliver service will install them when I have the do the shocks, bearings and brakes in two weeks. New information is always good.

Teaser Alert, I’ve got some new info about the Alcan Springs.

Starting May 21 you can reserve. I checked with the Parks Department as the Pavilion had already been reserved part if the week, but The 23 was reserved for us. She said then that those that want to attend should do so as quickly as possible on the 21st of May because whomever reserved the pavilion for the other dates are probably going to be camping that week too.

Here it is Max! At this point we may need a herd of dead horses to beat on! Ha! 😄

Scroll down to a recent post by @serge (Problem with 12 volt circuit…..) where I provide a possible remedy.

Nice

I don’t think @Geronimo John is factoring in the intermittent beer drinking!

For sure! I usually try and detail XPLOR in early Spring or early Fall in cooler temps. I have to admit although it is a bit of a time bandit, yet satisfying to see the final results of the effort. Parking XPLOR in our “Ollie Hanger” out of the hot sun UV and elements has been a game changer. I always just try and stay ahead of that chalky dull looking oxidation. A work in progress. Soon off to the coast of somewhere beautiful with my bride for some beach R&R and incredible seafood. Onward!
