No trailer just driving it. I didnt get time to do the front suspension so I am putting cheap narrow tires on the front. That should solve the tire rub for now. I am getting driveshaft balanced and a yoke today. My new trans(used) goes in today. So after the trans and diveshaft are done it should be good to go. I still have to dail in the new carb but that shouldnt be to bad. Then I get to pull the horse trailer out and check it over. We start the trip back thursday.

Sorry for the slow reply its been rather hectic the last few days. But I am not back in Texas yet my wife made it there tonight with the horses and our 2 year old son. I am still in Ohio waiting to go to court on the 24th. My mom's roommate decided to point a loaded riffle at me with a round in the chamber with the safety off when we had an argument the day before we were leaving. So now I get to spend fathers day with out my son. But I am hoping to get on the road as soon as court is done unless they try for a quintinuence. I think I got everything fixed that I needed too with the exeption of the front suspension but I have narrow tires on the front now so it doesnt rub and it goes int the the allignment shop to get the I-beams bent on tuesday.

Oh yea almost forgot I am still trying to get this new carb right, it doesnt want to drop down to low idle. Not sure if it is choke related or not I am planning on checking that tomorrow after I get done at the procicuters office.

Well if my son would have been in the house instead of calling the police I would have had to call a coroner. He is charged with Aggrivated menicing, Resisting Arrest, Interfering with offical business, and Using a firearm while intoxicated.

Fixed my idle problem. the wire powering the choke had a break in it so it was only getting about 3v so I just ran a keyed 12v wire to the choke.

Good to hear that you got the idle fixed.

Sorry about the court case and not being able to spend fathers day with your son. Wish you luck man.

Good catch, those type of problems are usually hard to pinpoint.
