its good except I was supose to leave for a 10 day hunting trip tonight after I ate thanksgiving feast. But It looks like I am having some sort of a charging problem or battery problem. got the charger on it atm and I am thinking I am going to have to go find some parts tomorrow and leave tomorrow night. So just been doing some reading on here and thought I would say hi. 11,000 miles since the rebuild and this is the first problem.

guess it better to have the problem at home vs the Hunting trip where parts would be hard to come by

I just got a new set batterys myself the old ones failed a Hydro test

Thats a good point. I got the alt apart on my counter atm. Girlfriend left hunting about 30 min ago she probably going to get one before i get there lol. What kind of batteries did you settle on.

Happy Thanksgiving snuggy

Warrenty deal

AutoZone Duralast Gold Tops

One bat had bad cell other had a cell going down

only 3 years old Free replacement by about 20 days with 8 year warrenty all together

I guess I just thought they would do better

Will see with the new ones they are pumped by a DC Power alternator from the word Go when the previous ones only had 1.5years DC Alt and OEM Before that and alt changed before total failure IDK
