Steering gearbox replacement
Still got my blue top steering box and had to adjust it once so far to take up gear slack, but still working awesome. If you are not doing oversized tires, you can opt for the quick ratio box.

Website Issue - Uploading photos
This I will consider solved at this time. I've not had any problems handling photos at all and all uploads work fine now.

Using Google Gemini AI on Ubuntu 24.04
As I've been working on the website I've been doing a lot of tuning work to make the software faster. I've got that done with the help of AI. Google's Gemini AI has been a invaluable tool in getting the server fixed up and working really good. I've dropped all the blocking time of the CSSscripts and the java scripts. Now it test out at a pure 0ms blocking time. Most pages score in the 90s percentitle.

Well he was a rebuilder for the site years ago. I was hoping but I guess not.

Even though the fallout but i would say try Dynamic Transmissions out of Washington. He actually is really good builder. Even custom valve body set ups.

Rear Backing Plate Shoe Pivot Pin
Grab a part number book and then look up the part number of the item your looking for and then do a search for that part number and maybe the part description. https://mopar1973man.com/cummins/articles.html/12-valve-2nd-generation/part-number-lookup-tool-2nd-gen-12v/ Might help to have your profile filled out so we can see the make and year.

Titanium
My adventure of having a second run at bladder cancer and going back and forth to chemo treatments and surgeries. "Titanium" the character, kept me going and helped me with depression and stress of the idea I might not make it. I've made several new friends and found a new way to enjoy life as I continue to dress up and do my Titanium makeup. I'm always taking my adventure out into the public and share my artwork with everyone!

Happy Birthday to Tweety Bird
May 26th is her birthday. Strange that the two of us have the 26th for birthdays. Then, strangely enough, our wedding day is the same as when we met—the 25th of June. Yes, we are still going to get married in public. @Tweety Bird asked for green today and not the dark green.

cleaning axels for rebuild (axel tube)
Inside too? That's tells me seal issue or pure abuse to have debris inside the tubes. Outside no problem. Just pressure washer the diff housing. You could pull the guts a pressure wash the inside too. Then air dry. Then dust with WD40 to retard rusting. Then paint the outside and load new guts (bearings and seals).

Remember the notation. 47RE 4 gears forward 7 on a 0 to 9 torque scale R ear wheel drive E lectronic Shift 4th Gear 48RE is the same mostly but the torque limit is higher. Plugs and connectors are most likely the hang up.

This will help on keyless entry on power door locks.

VP44 Injection pump - 505,363 Miles - May 23, 2026
Our last trip down to Boise ID we were going to dry camp with the RV as @Tweety Bird had medical appointments. While down in Boise / Eagle area Beast just died and jumped back to life.I called it and was the VP44. Fast forward we get home and park Beast beside the RV. Fast forward again yesterday i went to start Beast and move.Nope no start. Bummed I was going to have to work out in the yard. This morning I figure to try starting Beast again. Long crank but it started. Quickly move over the garage door so I could start the replacement. Managed to just get the pump out. Sad part is im not as strong as I once was and everything seems so very over tightened. Really its not im just that weak.
