I know Lymes is bad and all, but it's not like it kills you in 10 days or anything.

I will really want to see what they find with this before springtime comes.

Geez, dude. "We don't know the full spectrum of disease because it's the first case" Relax and have a bourbon!

There's 10 new things a year that we are told will kill us! People are getting a little on the edgy side every time some Doctor wants some highlights! tired

I've had the flu since Dec 24 finally getting done with it. I think Ebola may have lasted less time or killed me. The day I coughed so much I got back spasms I was thinking Ebola may have been a bargain but I'm probably wrong.

1)West Nile

2)Swine Flu

3)Anthrax

4)Smallpox outbreak

5)SARS

6)Avian influenza

7)MERS

8)Bird Flu

9)Ebola

Nice, well done. Yeah, true getting all out of whack over this. I'll now be calm.

I didn't mean to direct that at you, JP Z. I read about the bourbon virus, too, and I'll admit I am one of those that gets worked up, too. Especially with tick diseases as I am in the woods so much. Never hurts to "know the enemy" as long as we can balance that knowledge with a bit of "can't worry about everything." wink

Fine..... smile starting not to think it's soo bad. Just need some extra Permethrin.

I know DEET has been used for a long time and I use it too, but permethrin soaked clothes worries me. I use insecticide at work and that is the main ingredient... I will not wear clothes that are treated with this stuff. Just a thought.

That is true, or I guess wear clothes under your Permethrin soaked ones? I have the stuff haven't put it on yet, maybe I'll do a bit more research this winter on it.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      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

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      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.
