Got another piece of L-track mounted in the van to put the 'cabinets' on. One more piece to go and I'll be finished w/ that part of the build.

Ok, I'll play. I've spent the last 2 weeks at my parents house to avoid the possibility of giving the zombie germ to my MIL (lung cancer survivor) so I've been knocking out all the little PIA projects that have been hanging around:

I got a set of (chinesium) forks:
The first thing I had to do was add spacers, they lasted about as long as I thought they would...

After the first use..

Beefed them up a bit, works good now!

Moved the spare tire mount on the race trailer:
Image
It was mounted on the hitch where is got in the was and the negative air pressure while being towed tore the cover(s) off the spare.

Finished up a couple more tidbits today:
The lights on the little trailer where blowing fuses on the truck so I re-wired them and replaced with LEDs:Image

While on the subject of lights, I relocated the lights on my big trailer and installed new units as well as replace the center marker lights:Image
Image
Image
Image

Also replaced the pipe on the Beta with a replaired spare, they did really great work!
Image

Tomorrow I'm adding some bling to my new (to me) truck!
