Okay I’ll admit it I need assistance. Post WT mod issues.
Might be a good idea and contact @Auto Computer Specialist they do wiring harnesses. I've seen one member show off his rebuilt loom and it was better than factory. Even with the W-T ground mod I'm sure they will work the loom and keep the mod for ya.

Dude last night sucked. Wind storm came in howling and rocking the RV. It was about midnight when it started but got back to sleep around 3am. Oh fun.

Here I am settling down for the night. Got my food put away. Even ziploc all my steaks so I can thaw out a meal. Few sirloin steaks and a few pork chops. Oh I'm going to eat good while on this trip. Heck had dinner over with Muddy and family. Oh the cord cover got installed tonight. I took a bit of time to grab a few more photos of beast out here looking of the ridge into Parma. Beast is still in Moose Mode.

I got plenty of chow, snack stuff, etc. Got a new cord cover for the RV. I'll do it later on. Right now I'm just hanging out with friends and watching the weather change.

If it machined then a whole hub would be replaced. Really have a hard time seeing that being the race would have to be harded metal.

Yet another setback. It's always something
Get healed up. I know knee injuries suck. Mine was getting into a argument with a friend in kick his motorcycle hooked my foot and had the motorcycle fell over it pulled my left knee apart. I spent 2 years healing so it would quit popping apart. Took a long time before I got the muscles back to hold the joint together. I was able at will pop my knee apart for show for at least a year. Popping it out was easy, it hurt like hell going back in.

Trailer bearings and race shot, any ideas?
Yeah typically it's just pressed in. Just like @IBMobile said long drift and a fairly good sized hammer. It should come out. If it's been in awhile you might have to warm it up a bit with a propane torch to gain a bit of room get the race out.

Even though I woke up early I've got a few things to do this morning. Then later on today go out on a ride on the ATVs. Other than that I'm going to be lazy and not do much. The only requirement is go food shopping.

Quadzilla economy towing tune
Well the tune has a small problem with the fuel map. Did a modified version of my normal empty tune. I've see what I've got to change up and have a solution. What was happen start yo ramp up on the upper power band over accelerater and then sag back in the stock fuel zone. Never fear I've got an idea for solution.

Well... im already started my Adventure. Try to leave at noon but my 7 pin plugs were being pain in . Finally figure out it was the RV plug and fixed the pins. G O N E Made stop along the Weiser River near Council, ID. Made it to Ontario, OR and my friend Steve and Alice made me some munchies for after hour smoke. Hung around for just a little bit and hauled over to Muddy's place in Parma, ID. So here I am with the RV set up.

Woke up kind of excited to get going. I've got some running around to do. It's going to be late afternoon by the time I get done with my last minute stuff. I've got to run to McCall to pick up some monies, come back hit the bank, finish my laundry and pack my clothes. I'm really hoping to be gone late afternoon.

Don't get me started with commiefornia. There is a reason why I left California back in 1990.

I've got a couple of 9mm and a .22 rifle is coming. ATV I won't ride in The park but might find a forestry road to ride. I'm going to be leaving early. I'll head to Parma to hang with a few friends for a day or so. I've got plans for a ATV trip over in Oregon. I'm planning on doing my last bit of laundry tonight and pack and leave tomorrow. Why wait I'm going to start early.

Mopar1973Man's Adventure to California
Well I think I'm going to start a diary of my adventure. As today I've been getting the last bit of work done here before leaving. I've got to do some last minutes stuff and get the last packed up. I'll continue to update this thread as I go. I'll post photos and just keep everyone updated. My ATV is ready. I've aired up my bicycle and rode out to the mailbox and back. Just need to do my laundry one last time and grab more clothes. I've gotta head to town get propane, can of gasoline and diesel fuel. I'm planning on getting to Parma as my first stop for food and supplies.

Kind of like my Cummins OE gasket that failed at 1,000 miles.

Midna's build
So I would ohm the MAP wiring back to the ECM plug using an ohm meter. Verify that all wiring is les than 5 ohm resistance. Then double check ohm between the wire and body ground which will double check the MAP wires are not shorted to ground. Remember for both test the ECM and MAP plugs have to be disconnected. Then the next step could be a Quadzilla issue if the boost fooler circuit is damaged. Might consider sending the Quadzilla and wiring back for testing. Even better yet give Quadzilla a call and see what they have to say for tips to diagnose this.

Does the VP44 completely shut off fueling when truck is coasting in gear on a downgrade (manual transmission)?
Some of us kept reading but let you two discuss out the finer points without too many jumping in the middle of the mess. Thats one of the nice things you two can discuss out your different views and come to an understanding. Sometimes you gotta agree to disagree.

Semiannual Sierra Nevada camping
I've been busy going through cabinets getting rid of extra weight. Getting it down to just what I need for a trip. This is my 4th day living in the RV.
