Oh man Clark...the year you do Lions Den
and I won't be there. Dang I would have ask
to ride shotgun for that.     [slammin]
You can still come up...Tmac has a bed available in his cabin.  Truck departs on Wednesday morning...we'll talk about anything but politics for the 18 hour drive to and fro!

Getting ready for Harlan!  A bunch to do:
- fully grease trailer axles
- swap vulcanized tire for one on the jeep that is cut but holding air
- make the windshield more quickly removable for Lions Den
- get the glass replaced in the windshield
- repack trail tools


Separately, I'm still organizing the basement...it's an incredibly terrible activity.

I'm likely to not get my goals accomplished :(

Trailer grease done
Tires swapped
Tools sorted

Can't get the freaking hinge apart...looking to Justin for tips and tricks.

Windshield glass still not replaced...doh!

The torx bolts stuck? I thought it was just 4 on each side at the bottom and the 2 at the top to the cage?

I cut both ends off and can't get the hinge bolt to come out.  The bolt is splined on both ends, and is in there tightly.

Might be worth it to just buy a new set if you don’t mind if they’re paint matched (I know how ocd you are about everything matching)

Get a BFH and a punch. I think you have to drive it out.

Most LCOG Builds are like a fat girl in Yoga Pants, just cause it fits doesn't mean it works...

Haha I’m only commenting on what I’ve read others do. I’ve got no personal experience with it.

While I'm not zealot for the UD60 axles, I had the crate boards leftover, so yesterday I made a piece of garage "art":
