Well, found snow.  Had a good time.  Goodyear Kevlar mtrs were not as good as I hoped for.

Nice.  Well, I'll try it lower next time.  For the most part they did ok and as long as I had the momentum, I chugged along.

You want to be at 2 to 3 psi for that type of snow.

My buddy is buddies with one of the guys you went with. He was showing me pictures of them up there and I immediately saw your truck.

So, I did some electrical troubleshooting the other day.  Looks like I have about and 1/8 amp draw.  May not sound like enough but it's enough.  Once I located the three main drains I still had a draw.  I cannot seem to zero out the flow however.....

Haven't had a chance to install my new hawse factor 55 fairlead.  I also picked up a 30' synthetic winch rope extension and synthetic shackles.

How are you measureing the draw. Meter I assume, but from where to where. Just Checking......
Max draw spec is 50 milliamps for any vehicle.
I can help You. I know a bit about amps, Ohms, and Oh Yeh..... Volts.
Why have have you never wheeled with us before?

Two part question....

First part, 10amp DC on my multimeter.  Then I did a voltage drop check on every fuse in my rig.  Then it started raining and I stopped at that point.  What I assumed was that I could get the reading down to zero..... :dunno:

Second part, I'm selfish :D.

With the capability of the drivers around here it's honestly best if they shut everything down. I had fun driving around this morning before everything turned to slush.

Went to replace my roller fairlead with my new Factor55 hawse one and it won't work.....without a little modification.   Of course.   So, know I have to pull the winch, modify the bumper and bore out the mounting holes on the fairlead a smidgen.

Blew the rear end on the way to work.  Now, I have an excuse to build my high pinion elocker for the front.

Got most the parts I should need to build my HP front elocker.  Justdifferentials.com was awesome and super quick plus free shipping!   Went ahead and ordered 29 spline stuff.  Apparently, that's a thing.  I'm excited to install this and see my driveline angles. 

Also, ordered a ~$20 headlight relay conversion harness and installed it.  Super quick and plugged right in.

I was heading south over the bridge, pulled over to check on things.  I was hearing a suspect noise.  Went to leave and that's when it went boom.
