How many 90*s have you got on that pvc? Gotta be almost impossible to snake the wire.

Is that your actual motor in the pics?
You already removed it?
It’s a core he has had sitting around for a couple years.

Yeah we’ve had the trailer 3 years, figured it was time. Also discovered one of the tires (OEM chinabombs) has the beginning of a bubble in the middle of the tread. :(

And for the two of you, you don’t need huge. Smaller trailers also open you up to more campground possibilities.

I had a similar issue on my ‘06. From what I recall, the heated seat switch connects to the drivers door module (window switches) and then that ultimately communicates to the BCM to control the seat module to turn the heat on/off. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/72049-heated-seat-trouble/I was under the impression that maybe water/moisture was getting into the switch somehow and making it tweak out - always worse during the wet/winter months. Ultimately I traded the truck in and never got it fixed.

To be fair, I did say “right now” ;)
I’m always cold so I don’t think the heat would bother me too bad.

Went to Kalispell this morning with little trailer and picked up this 500# stove. Curt my neighbor helped me unload it up onto my covered front porch. About all we could do to get it up there with appliance dolly and two guys. Going to try and get a castered cart under it to bring it in the house early next week.

Auto stop as in proximity to another vehicle? Not on my old 14. Looking at a new compass module. Its always about 90/180* even after calibration. Just need to find where it is, searches have done no good. Ken?
No the greenie feature that turns the engine off at a stop and starts it when you take your foot off the brake.

Don,
Have you thought about calling the car dealership you picked the burn up from? They always have cool stuff and yours might just fit right back in on their floor ya know
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I could, I guess. But being all modded up... But, ya, maybe
Edit: Message sent. If he buys it, you get the credit for suggesting it. ;-)
(TRN will back me up here) you might consider reaching out to NWMS (northwest motor sports) they like all kinds of modded up stuff and might be willing to even transport. could be worth a few minutes of your time. nearly every truck they have is custom or modded in some way. not always the best to buy from mind you, but that is their market.
NWMS is a dirty word!!! (Especially buying from as you said) ;) Come to think of it… I think Charles bought the bus from them.

From the “I’m cheap category”
Have a suitcase that we’ve had for years and the rubber wheels were disintegrating. They were riveted in but I dremel tooled them out and found some replacements with axles from Amazon for $10.
Here’s to another 20 years.

Turbo went out on the duramax 395k I guess I can't get upset over that. Shop said $1,400 for the turbo pluse labor. Still can't lift over #10 or I would be doing it myself

I hear Nascar is going run EVs soon. But it would be EV vs EV, not EV vs gas.
Problem is they control you and know everything you do. I can't charge at my prop, yet. EVs can't really tow yet either, sure that will come.
I saw a Rivian at the campground a couple weekends ago, I can only assume they towed their trailer down with it - had the hitch platform in the receiver. Nope - not for me. I love my diesel.

Could that just be a u-joint?
The caddy I’m fixing up has bugs too. Both rear door latches/locks appear to be bad.

I just got a hub to get the kids direct wired, but should have bought a 8 port vs a 4 which is filled now.
TRN, my calble coming in is split with one for phone, other for data and plugging the data line into the hub does not work. So it goes to the router-hub-then out to other things.
Shawn, if the tank was left half empty it may have dried out and may take a few cycles to clean out (don't ask how I know)
Any good sites to explain this? Is cat 6 that much better like supplying power to cameras?
Hey, a 37 inch tire just rolled by, going to try and catch it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Cat6 is 23ga whereas cat5/5e is 24ga. Less voltage drop over a larger conductor. https://www.cablexpress.com/education/blog/cat6-cabling-what-is-the-big-deal-about-awg-american-wire-gauge/

Had to upgrade the switch in the main house to add more POE cameras.
A lot of my gear is older 24V passive and it’s hard to find a switch that will let you program 24V passive or POE+
Now to wire up 5 more cameras.

FYI, just got a 70gal aux tank for mine. Got 19+ mpg going to placerville and back today.
Then I ran to Brooks, then to Stockton selling my old lift parts ($350). Still on 3/4 tank after filling in Folsom ($240)
Can't wait to buy diesel for $1 cheaper a gallon and have plenty around AND maybe make some!
19mpg is pretty good. I can eek out 20-20.5 mpg running up I-5 to our friends’ place about 80 miles away.
