Hand throttle install complete. That's the good news. The bad news is there is a problem. It would seem the throttle cable - one of those steel wound ones with a solid steel core - is unhappy with the multiple, but large radius turns in its routing. I'll have to mess with it, try some lube, or maybe even find a different kind of cable closer in type to the "normal" one on the accelerator pedal. We'll see...
Re-gear break in continues.
I don't have any Tool albums, but like a few of their songs. Had not heard The Pot before hearing the Brass Against cover. I've listened to it soooo many times, now, that's all I can hear.
Approx 100 of those 25 million views are mine, LOL. As are about 40 of the 1m views on this one:
But to stay on topic, I drove my TJ today. Last night, wife and I went to the jewelry store to pick up a replacement ring like the one I had given her 25 years ago. Then drove it to BB's Lawnside BBQ here in KC for their Thursday night special sandwich. Mmmmm. Haven't really been doing much to it. Still need to wipe the interior down after the Moab trip to get at least some of the dust off the visible surfaces, LOL. Just been driving it. Got most of the problems rectified on this rig. Been kinda nice. A/C stopped holding a charge, so will have to look into that in the Spring. Motor is more rattle-y than I prefer, but the oil pressure is good. The 3:07 and no lockers is still in the back of my mind. Was driving it around today on my day off, and I forget which song came on, but I cranked it. The Kicker sub and amp I installed back in January was definitely worth it. The smile it brought to my face was proof!
In addition to picking up the half doors, bought my wife an expensive purse. Purely a smoke screen for the LJ parts. Now, she doesn't mind/ask me about the parts showing up to the house.
Well we have a fuel “shortage” at the moment so woke up early to drive down to the station and fill up but found my passenger window had been smashed last night, good news is I managed to get a full tank. Taking an Uber to work now, when I get back in a few hours I will be replacing my window.
That’s the drivers window!
I’m English we drive the right side
Right means its "Right" lol US started off driving on the right but pussied out to the French influence!
What Dunderhead thought changing gear with your right hand was a good idea? lol No wonder they went 99.99% Automatic! lol
Fitted a rocket launcher to the roof rack for my spare tent poles and fishing rods, pained it black but it was too dark for a pic, also fitted shovel holders. Going all out hardtop Overlander for the weekend Mall trips.
