Good luck! Let me know how you do. And remember when you are heading up to the north burbs let me know so we can hit the ice. (aicjarofflies softballfans.com).

Thanks!!

Now that I know what your screen name is over here, I'll keep an eye out and let you know when I'm heading up that way.

I am sooooooooo ice fishing tomorrow. I am just waiting to see where the snow hits the least, and head that way early Saturday morning. If ANYONE has any small good fishing lakes that are worth fishing, I would appreciate the tip. Anywhere north is ok with me....the benefit of being single! grin.gif

Define "up north"

In my neck o the woods, as of last night, the lake I am hitting tonight has 5.5" across the entirety of it. Seems to be the average around here. There are some that have not frozen fully, but the small to medium lakes are all about the 4-6" range.

This is what I am talking about!!!! I really appreciate the news CNCMike. Can you give me some names of lakes please. I have my H2O and want to try to find a lake that has the depths on the lakemaster chip.

I live in the Madison area (south central WI) and most lakes have not closed up yet but the egdes are in the one to three inch range. I fished for a couple hours yesterday on pretty thin ice but not too deep. Walking around scared plenty of fish but I didn't catch any. The bigger area lakes like Mendota won't close for a while though.

      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.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      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.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      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.
