    I’ve had pickled trotters before; that’s a new one on me!


    I’d take a pot of mudbugs for about half these links any day. Sounds like we need to have a cookout!

    Anyone can walk into an REI and shop. Anyone can order from REI online. Lifetime membership to the co-op is a one-time $30 charge. https://www.rei.com/membership

    Some things are spendy. Other things are not. Sometimes you gotta catch the sales. Is a weird place. I get my hiking shoes there, and usually get them for half what anyone else charges. It’s a co-op so you get stuff in return for shopping.

    I reused the eclipse glasses from ‘21 & didnt have any problems. Might still be good in ‘44, since there doesnt seem to be a way to drive to catch the eclipse in ‘33.

    Again, one of my favorite memories of POTUS is when he decided to raw dog the eclipse.

    In my experience, both 4HI and 4LO lights flash when the transfer case actuator isn't connected. As soon as I would unplug my Tcase actuator, even with the ignition on, both lights would flash. Never tried doing that with the ADD actuator so I can't say if the same thing happens with that. But I'd start looking for damaged wires or connectors. If that doesn't conclude any results- always check the guide.

    Thanks! I’ve tried it a few times since then and seems to be a hit and miss engaging and disengaging 4WD. I have to try a few times to achieve either.

    I’ll take a look and see if there’s any loose wires by passenger door like shown in link.

    Thanks again!

    edit: As I was taking a look at the wiring(seems everything in its placed) I remembered I had cut the tip of the actuator’s hose cause it was damaged and kept falling off. Took a look and seemed like the hose was pinched. Ran the hose a different way to avoid the pinch and fixed the issue.

    Trying to decide between Grey Pneumatic and SKTools U.S.A. branded 1/2” swivel impact sockets.

    Grey Pneumatic are made in Taiwan and SK Tools is a dying breed at twice the cost with their replacements now made in China.

    Any thoughts or experiences anyone?

    Logically, I think I should go with Grey and not have to deal with crappy inferior substitutes. But will the USA made SKs ever break on me?

    You get dividends on full price purchases and 365 day return policy. Makes the commitment to nicer gear more doable if you don’t love it or something malfunctions.

    Have some older USA made air tools and some HF ones too. Haven't yet bought a battery powered impact. Using HF impact sockets mostly. All been good.

    I hear they’re more dangerous if the pin snaps though. One of the main reasons I prefer something more reliable for abuse.

    Just don't abuse things... Sometimes the smoke wrench is the right answer.
    Have you looked at Tekton Tools? I have been pleased with their quality.
