SARGE - ROAD WARRIOR

A great idea Jeremiah. I'd also enjoy that.

 

Here you go. Knock yourselves out. There's no backing out, now :

Thanks, that is an eleven-point King Ranch Buck. Best hunting experience of my life. Deer, quail, dove, hog, javelina, and nilgai. For those of you who are not from Texas, The "King Ranch" is over 900 acres. The lease I hunted on was 20,000 acres.
That's when I picked up the nickname "Paladin".

 

I have the side fender "Parkwood" emblems but haven't installed them because I thought I had to remove the fender to do it. I had considered double stick tape but the inner surface of the emblems does not have enough area for the tape to adhere effectively. I was looking at one of them today and noticed a emblem retainer on one of the post. I went line to order some and evidently them come in different sizes. Anybody know what size I need?

 

You souldn't have to remove the outer fender. It's much easier to just drop the inner fender down to gain access to install any retainers necessary.

 

You should be able to measure it with a dial or slide-jaw caliper, both at the very end and at the thickest part, then go to the Au-Ve-Co (Auveco) website to find the correct one. You want the inner size of the hole to be maxed out on the thickest part.

 

I'll measure the post this week. The emblems will help stop people from asking, "What model is it?".

Victoria and I drove up to the Artesian Lakes community to visit friends for the New Year. It's a 90-mile drive and about 30 miles of two-lane winding road. Sarge preformed flawlessly.

Our friends have a log cabin on the lake. They hosted a "Roaring Twenty's" Party. Sarge was parked out front. It was a mature crowd and many wanted to see Sarge up front and personally, so I made several trips outside to give them the nickel tour. Great fun.

Happy New Year!!

 

That's awesome. What a fun way to ring in the new year.

 

I posed this question in the "User Guides" but got no feedback.
I there a way to sort the pictures of my wagon in the "Garage". I just want to put things together on a timeline and with like things together. Also, I have two other Garage items that I must have set up by mistake. I guess the only option there is to delete them. Any guidance there?

Well, I screwed up again! I was trying to edit the Garage pictures to put them in order of the build and instead of deleting a single picture, I deleted the entire Garage post:-( So, I had to rebuild the Garage post. As I said earlier, I had a couple of other Garage items so I re-did the pictures on one of those. Now the pictures are in order.

 

That seems to be how it goes sometimes. At least you still had them and were able to repost them.

 

Just to follow up. I did get the fender emblems installed. I purchased on eBay the keeper nuts. It was so easy. I put them into the existing holes and then just pushed the emblem on. It looks great!

I also resolved the charging problem with a new alternator. Now, the only thing I haven't resolved is a minor brake issue. I installed a new booster and M/C. The system is working except that the brakes are grabbing. The first time you step on the pedal they work fine. But, if you let off the pedal and step on it again, the brakes grab. I think it's a vacuum problem. Gonna test the vacuum level and see if it's too low/high.

 

Can you explain what you mean by grabbing? Do you mean that the brakes are not releasing after you let off the pedal?
