Installed a 2nd relay for the radiator fans on the buggy (1 for each fan now) - only one was used on the old radiator and it blew the fuse on this new setup...also cleaned up some wiring and loaded up the trailer...day trip next weekend! love this time of year.

Doing a water pump on a 7.3L. 

Supposed to use a special tool to loosen the big fan nut. One video showed a guy using a hammer and chisel. 

On a FB forum couple dudes said they read to use an air chisel. 

Thats what i did and worked great!! It lives in my truck. Thinking it might come in handy out in glamis sometime. 

The air chisel is pretty small too. Dont need room to swing a hammer around. 

Some of you guys probably already know this trick. Was new to me. 

Almost gave up because it was grooving the nut pretty deep. Once the groove developed i was able to adjust the angle and sure enough saw it rotate. 

Was worried because the local autozone and orielly wasnt showing the tool in stock. 

 
Golf on Maui with my two younger brothers and my mom's husband. 

I only played the short half.  I'm shitty at golf and didn't feel like throwing my back out on day 1 of vacation thinking that I can muster up a 250 yard drive....

 
I’m elk hunting with my son and father in law in the coastal range along the Washington coast. Weather has been awful but still having a good time. My son missed one yesterday at 460 yds and jumped another this morning but the cows blocked him from shooting the bull. Hopefully he will get another opportunity. If not, still great spending quality time with these guys ! 

 
Busy week/weekend.

Wife bough another new car. (2022 Mercedes GLE350), My B-day, been feverishly working on getting my car together for Vets.  Went to San Diego to say goodbye to a dear friend and brother.  Life's just not going to be the same without you dude.  Got home late Saturday night, woke up Sunday and ran errands and back to work on the car.  Kevin saved my bacon with a spare bleeder valve and after a little surgery, got that fixed.

Now if I can just win the Powerball jackpot tomorrow life will be good.

 
Saturday took my son to help put up 3000 american flags at the Murrieta veterans memorial  with some of his fellow scouts, helped my dad put up a pool fence. Sunday I shot a match and cleaned everything up when I got home
