My good friend Robert from Montreal, a fellow MLU follower and CMP owner,, flew across Canada imn his plane and dropped in for a visit, for somereason he left smiling a few hours later.

After sorting out the brakes I pulled it out of the workspace and turned it around up on the street to position it to load the GS Box

Sean came over after work and helped me get the box back on the truck without breaking anything.

After a false start with the distributor out of time it started up right away. Seemed to be running fine so I combined with my idea for a second video by showing all the features of the transfer case and winch. After I adjusted the clutch linkage and the 4 wheel drive linkage to align the gates in the shifter better. Brakes are sticking on a bit so always something to catch up on.

I brought this truck down from the Chilcoten region west of Williams Lake. Scary long Drive home with it on a trailer. Gave it a good assesment and came to the conclusion that the frame was to tourqued to repair, typical of most winch trucks I've come across.

nice shot of our vehicles off at the end of the road.
