Needs MA safety inspection too, or just go with it expired and run risk of a fine if pulled over

I think it's going down and back on expired sticker

Box isn't leaking
Howl is just idler
Front end feels tight

Gonna drop tank and replace breathers if that's what's leaking, or whole tank if needed. Tanks been out before so shouldn't be too bad.

Gas leak is fixed. Problem #1 for Rausch prep.

Today: Gas tank replaced, idler pulley no longer squeezing, lights replaced, alignment done, front bumper all smoothed and painted, drying now.

Tomorrow: Tune up, replace broken wheel stud, attach bumper

30 mile test drive on backroad and highway yielded acceptable results. Didn't wander too bad, power and rpms were fine in 3rd gear lockout, no noises or vibes.

Ready for a 600 mile round trip with two days of wheeling in the middle! Fine, but I am guessing we will be ready for a truck and trailer after this trip.

We have arrived home safe and sound from our 2016 4th of July UA experience.

Pretty consistent shake and bake now at all highway speeds. Rear brakes and hard start need dealing with before too much more time but not bad for what it did on the trails and approaching 205k.

Ready to have truck back for next trip but we had fun and glad we did it.

It got beat on pretty good for driven to the trails. I wouldn't be surprised if the shake n bake is tire balance if they're not dynamic. Spin on wheels or some lost weights depending on method.

Lil jeepie did damn good!

Thanks! Had lots of fun. Had my doubts but we made it!

Definitely lost some tire weights, we will check it out next free weekend.
