Got my new dual brushless Spal fans and custom shroud installed to replace the 3x failed aftermarket Taurus fan.

Took the classic to smog - it promptly failed before I could roll it in the station...

 

Check engine light came on as I rolled into the parking lot. 

 

Code 68 - VSS (variable speed sensor) continuity check. 

 

Time for the multimeter ; )

Wiring up my dual battery system over the past week + installing front HD Ashcroft axles, ATB diff, HD ring & pinion, etc. in the Perentie. The exchange rate has been good for UK goodies...!

Had a great time snowshoeing with the kids and the way into the trailhead was some cool snow wheeling up a good grade with some great views definitely a fun one for the future!!

Finally put in my repaired air locker and swapped in some 300M axle shafts in the rear. I can finally return this borrowed open diff to El Presidente. After checking the pattern with marking compound, I determined the pinion gear is set a little too far in, but it’s run that way for years now so I just decided to leave it and set the backlash. It was a put together third from Lucky 8 done by the previous owner. I’ve been wanting to regear to 4.88’s, so if I shred these then I’ll just use it as an excuse to regear both axles. For now, the free fix will suffice.

My gawd do I have a case of the jellies.

 

Literally all the AMCs get me weak in the knees. 

 

Congratulations!

Is it pre-smog?  Because I feel like two letters could really improve things here....
