Yeah. We have a 22RE and a 22R powered pickup around here, I'd rather drive the 22RE but I'd rather troubleshoot, buy parts for, or work on on the 22R.

I get that logic for sure
. After downloading the PDF of the factory service manual for the 22re (1993) . Troubleshooting became really dummy proof

Hello! Been awhile since some updates with the build. So here it is. I've been re designing and building the second generation roof rack for chinook. After getting a feel for and the performance of the 1st roof rack.

So here is the new one. Its aluminum this time.
Vs chromed steel. So lighter and no worries for rust.

Is a basket vs a platform with a railing topping out at 5 " from the floor of the basket.

This one is 8'x 5'6" of usable space. And comes in at ~49lbs/ 50lbs
1st gen was 4'x 5'6" of usable space and weighed 42 lbs

No welds . I have a TiG. But no experience with Aluminum yet. And this is almost entirely made of 1/16" wall square tubing. With some ⅛" angle attached to certain zones for strength where it will need it.

Hopefully the pics can answer any questions yall have. But feel free to ask!

Also rebuilt the front drive shaft including the double cardan joint.
Using the kit from NWOR.

(North West Off Road)

Also. As some of you know. There is that large 3/16" maybe hole in the back side of the ball yoke for the double cardan.
I did decide to fill that hole with some jb weld. BUT drilled a smaller 1/16" hole next to it. So grease can still escape from there and not build pressure and want to squeeze through the other side where the rubber ring is on the face of the ball

And for those who enjoy pics of the rig. Here are some from recent camping trip.

Also sitting on new kumho 32x11.5 r15 MT51

And absolutely love them. Performed great on slick rock and extremely quiet !
