Been gone for 7 weeks and had a great summer on Lake Pend Oreille in Idaho. Also, Nancy held my 70th birthday party in Spokane (50 miles away) While we were there. All eight of my kids and spouses and my 10 grandchildren showed up to "ROAST" the old man. My lifr couldn't get any better.
Got home last Wednesday to the midwest heat. Got the boat unloaded, cleaned up and put away. Got the lawn mowed and other honey doo's finished up and went back to the F1 yesterday. The weather is cooler now which is great.
Went back to installing the rear axles and brakes. Axles wouldn't seat on the flanges. Had about 1/4 inch sticking out. Finally with some quick measuring it looks like the bearings are too wide. I pulled the rearend back out and will take it back to the guy that drilled the axles and pressed new bearings on for me. Anyway I think that is the problem. I'll find out this next week.
Soooo, that means, back to sandblasting the cab today. Also need to finish up some welding of pin holes on the floor boards. I want to prime and seal the bottom of the cab before I flip it back over.
It's nice to be back.
