Good morning guys.

Allie hasn't been feeling well so there was not much sleep to be had last night.

Tom, we will ride with whoever on the way home. However it works out best I guess.

Good morning Dave. That does look like a good deal. I cannot tell. Is that a 5th wheel? Never mind. Just reread the post title...

Any idea what time you will be over?

No I still need to finish the first which is fill with oil and screw it together. The second will go faster as long as everything is good in it. Then pull skid and do bearings and spring. Should check the RAVE valves on the engine. Those probably have some carbon build up.

Hi Dave.

I got the track tensioned properly last night. Turns out I didn't have the rear axle loose enough to let it slide forward more. Loosened it a little more and there was all kinds of slack. DUH!!!!!!!!!!

Also got the brake caliper/new brake line on and bled. I like doing brakes on the sled WAY better than the van. Now, to get the motor back in and go through the carbs.
