New battery last Friday.

New wheels and tires on Saturday.

Just finished installing a new alternator and accessory drive belts this evening. Voltage regulator was on its way out so I just picked up a whole new unit. No pics but works like it should.

Busy weekend, but got the Prinsu TopRac on, got the dust light wired, and the CB mounted/antennaed.

Do you keep the rotopax on on top all the time? Have you had any problem with the the heat expansion?

No and not that I've noticed. I only filled it once actually and used it that same weekend. Is that a known issue?
I haven't strapped mine up top yet, but I filled mine for a 4 day trip and stored it in a trailer. I used it on the last day before a 10 hour drive and when we got back (after being in a trailer all day) it was pretty bloated. From what I've seen online, the expansion in the heat is a normal thing but I don't know if there are any negative long-term side affects.

Sweet ride BTW, I like that black box you have on top too.

Today was a good day. Went for a weekend ride through Blackwater State Forest with the family. Got home, replaced the front passenger window regulator, replaced factory fog lights with direct factory replacements (not sure why ‍♂), and then cleaned it up. Not a bad Father’s Day at all......IMG_2670.JPG
