    Busy weekend! I bet the bus is running the best it ever has?

    Did the deceleration pop go away?

    Ya, lots more power! Deceleration pop, bog when you hit it hard, and the backfires all went away! Pretty happy. I even got to test the reserve lever on the drive yesterday haha. Never run out of gas in anything before.

    76547D64-C260-4B59-BA83-712703F59891I’ll get wood panels for the rest of the interior when I get back. Don’t want to start into another rabbit hole this close to the trip

    Awesome man!!!!!   I think them heads were from a bad batch or something… So stocked for ya!!!!!     It wasn’t that long ago you pulled your first engine out of a bus..   I think the BBOE…   and now…  Your building your OWN shit!!!!!!!!!!    😎    Glad you got that bed sorted out…  I bet it’s a little more quiet and will be good for road tripping!!!  Not long now…. Spencer Hot Springs!  I just got home and am already looking forward to it!!!!

    Been a wild ride, but it got me here 😎

    Ya crazy…. I pulled that BBOE engine like 2 yrs ago. Been lucky to learn a lot from good friends/mentors since! Lots of miles in buses and loving every second of it! I haven’t been able to sleep for like a week! So excited for this trip. Spencer in just a couple days. Never been. Should be great!

    the bed is so comfy! And yes, the bus is a lot quieter and warmer. Going to be great for road trips

    Even got a CB installed today. Don’t love how I ran the antenna cord… but I don’t want to drill any holes. So I don’t know what the best way is. I ended up running it through one of the cargo vents and then ran it along the roofline inside the bus and then dropped it to the parcel tray… had to use a couple squares of tape… oh well. Maybe I’ll think of a better way soon. F208E8D5-5D91-4A08-AFA7-2851FC032BCC

    I’m trying to make a push for us to switch to HAM. A lot more powerful and cost is pretty much the same!

    Ya I’ve had that on a few threads… I just click the second to last page if that is happening and then it all shows up. It’s like the site gets ahead of itself when creating a new page

    Well, finally got my bus up on the rack. Didn’t see any cracks in my frame luckily. But something is going on with my driver front side… broken leaf spring in my beam probably? Saggy by a bit…. anyway. I’m going camping tomorrow, so no time for that. But I did grease my beam/spindles and re packed my bearings. Definitely had some water come out of my beam when I pumped new grease in there… haha and my drivers bearings had some water in there. But all in all not too bad…

    now it’s time to go self quarantine! C ya later crazy world. Nothing that climbing and camping and buses can’t fix!
