Was on Mille Lacs this weekend catchin jack squat, but having a good time at the perch extravaganza. I knew my 1st tank of gas was low so I opened the valve on the second and quickly flipped the switch to the 2nd tank. I checked the stove top to make sure the gas was flowin and it was. So the house was very warm when we went to sleep, Instead of a rattle wheel waking me up my wife says i'm cold. I felt the furnace and it was warm but not hot. I turned on the cook top and it lit but didn't burn very high. There was a lot of frost on the line where it comes into the house. The tank had propane, tried flipping back to the 1st tank which was low but not empty. Not wanting to Richard around at 5 below and not catching fish anyway we packed it in and drove home at 3:30 in the morning.
So now I got some sleep and went out to empty the house and try the stove and of course now it burns like normal. What the heck happened? and what can I do not to repeat this?

got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....
Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.
Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.
Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular 😪
we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables, winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).
I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.
For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.
I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches. I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
