Jolly Green Giant...2015 F-350 KR DRW
Checked with a friend who has a trailer restoration business. No luck on the cams.
The parts will be on their way Monday..... Hope to see them Wed or Thur.
Roy, sorry to read about having to deal with the trailer on your trip but good catches. Imagine how many folks never check their under carriage items. Safety never takes a day off.
The pics at Smithsonian are awesome!

Roy,
I have a concern around the amount of time you are spending in Washington and the North East. Plenty of hardworking, dedicated, conservative people have been sent to Washington and have lost their way. The rich, liberal elites in Montana don't need any more members. The regular people of Montana expect the same Roy that they sent to Washington to return home. Stay Montana tough while spending this extended time in the swamp.

At Home....... I forgot to bring it with me. I do have the "Torque Sticks" for the impact wrench that I did bring with me.
I have tested them quite a bit when I purchased them...... I find that if I use them correctly, they are pretty darn close to my torque wrench. What I usually do is use a Torque Stick(TS) just under what I want as a final torque and finish with the torque wrench.(TW)
So, if I need 85 Ft Lbs..... and use a 85 Ft Lb TS, I will be very close to 85 ft lbs. I hate going out and buying another TW.
What I am going to do different, is use loctite...... Red or Blue ??

Thanks...... The truth is, I need to be better about checking suspension bolts...... The tire leaking air lead me to the suspension bolts missing.
Yea, I know what you mean. I try to crawl under once every two weeks for inspection and putting grease into the zerk fittings in the wet bolts, check tire pressure.
The dogs make it hard at times as they think it's time to play and give excessive kisses while I'm on my back. Laughing is like throwing gas on a fire to them.

I would go with blue. If you use red, then you'll have to use a lot of heat to take them off.

Get a can of brake clean and degrease the threads before applying.
Great pics Roy. If I ever get up there with sufficient time to do so, I would enjoy getting to all of the Smithsonian Museums up there - particularly the Air and Space, and Natural History museums.
I think Theresa is just getting a bad case of Swamp Fever due to the proximity of DC. You guys need to hurry out of there as quickly as you can!
Good luck with the RV repairs.

I just dug through the box of extra suspension stuff I got from Rodney.....I didn't end up with any.
I'd use blue. Red might need some heat to come back apart, depending on where your brake lines are at could be a pain in the ****.
