alright so I posted this in the open water forum and well, I didnt get the response that i was thinking that I would. I do appreciate everyone that did respond there but I dont believe that I have enought information/experienses. So here is a cut n copy of my original post
"Maybe its the daughter, maybe its the age thing, maybe I am just getting afraid, either way I am seriously starting to look into purchasing a PFD that I can wear when ever I am in my canoe or boat. I admit, I normaly dont wear it they are in the boat/canoe with me, but the darned thing is just so bulky/uncomfy. I have the Sterns 30 dollar specials. I have seen people with the waist style that auto infaltes, Ive seen 100 dollar ones that are just less material than what i have, Ive seen the ones that look like they just go around your neck and auto inflate. Ive also noticed on the ones that are inflate by themselfs there are 2 kinds, the Auto, and the pull cord. I will more than likely be looking for 2 to purchase or ask for as a gift. Anyone out there have their suggestions? I guess I havent really been afraid of anything as of lately being on usualy the only one out in the canoe on that small part of the lake, but Im thinking about venturing out on more lakes, such as North or South Center, Forest Lake, Clear lake ect ect, not quiet like the channel at South lindstrom or chisago or back in the river between North Lindstrom and North Center. Any info / experiences would be much appreciated, and ofcourse I know You get what you pay for but the cheaper side would be nicer seeing as how money isnt growing on that tree out back yet, Ill have to check with Bobby to see if that seed I got from the kid on the corner was really a money tree or if it was another type of tree, either way Hopefully Bobby comes around and lets me know if I put it in the wrong place or if it was a different type of seed or something."
reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.
I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.
If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?
Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess
My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.
Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.
above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out
here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there
here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
