New truck with repaired 5th wheel

First trip with everything.
Great ideas in this Forum. Now have to rebuild suspension on 5th wheel.

Nice rig and set up.
Why a suspension rebuild?
Kinda looks like Cal City or possibly just south of Garlock along the road to Randsburg.
What are you hauling out there?

Very, Very close.
Dove Springs, just north of Red Rock Canyon.

This was a fun run no toys. Normally 2 Rhinos, 2 quads, 2 kids(21) and 2 dogs.
Just wife and I needing to drop off grid for a weekend.

Suspension. I have about 20k+ on the trailer. Lots of dirt road stuff. I'm OCD on this kind of stuff. I want to add EZ-Flex equalizers anyway and eventually disc brakes.

Yes, the Garlock fault is pretty clear across that area. I almost said Dove Springs and have enjoyd that area as well. An old district 37 desert racer.
We went out to Cal City a couple of weeks ago. Very nice weather, little breeze, lots of stars, and lots of quiet. It's kinda nice to get away from it all and I compliment you in doing just that.
Wonder why we don't do it more often?
Beautiful Sheps you have along too.
