Went to Laughlin this weekend and got to shake down a couple of products I build along with a new to me camper setup. Had a great time with my cohorts and some much needed desert therapy.

Built a seat for @sreidmx but he never showed up. lol

 

[sreidmx]

Hawt seat is pretty rad!

 

[Desert_K5]

Picked up a square body trailer for my old quad. It's in decent shape and will match the K5 when everything is done.

Looks like the actually put it on a trailer axle. Much better than towing around a full differential.

 

[Desert_K5]

It is and it pulls nice, only downside is no brakes right now but will be added.

 

[Desert_K5]

Going to use the new bucket trailer this weekend to "overland". Silver State 300 check point, we'll be out in the middle of nowhere. Built spare tire racks and failed at a bumper last night. Generator mount is tonight's project. Going to dimple die everything possible.

Cheap trailer worked good. Couple of shots at the check and random adventure trip pics, mostly of our Sunday lunch run up the course into the hills. This was the last free weekend, all others are BB2019 related.

Is that a shock collar on the GSP?

 

[Desert_K5]

Is that a shock collar on the GSP?

Yes, It's an e-collar brand good for 1/2 mile

You use it to get her to come back when she’s scouting around?

 

[Desert_K5]

Yeah she likes to wander in the brush and not come back. Need a longer range one, she covers a lot of ground fast.

Lol yeah I know all about it! We are super lucky with my sons GSP. Two tweets with a ref whistle and he’s on his way back. Sometimes takes a while... they get far away fast! My old GSP is good too but he’s 10 now and a bit of a block head. I wouldn’t trust him in the bush to come back.

 

[Desert_K5]

Hahaha you understand my pain lol. She's a great dog but you know the energy level can create issues. We don't need the shock function just the vibrate warning. We had her trained by an ex military dog trainer by luck. My wife won a facebook contest with him and it turned out amazing. A while back, she chased a small field hawk that took me 5 minutes of driving (25-30 mph) down the wash to get her back. That had me a little worried about how to explain to my wife where her dog went.

Any updates on the Blazer?

 

[Desert_K5]

Not much. I've gathered up all the parts needed, now just have to find the time to install everything. Picked up a 5.3 ls for a swap and it turned into a pile, so I'm going with a reman long block and @Fastereddie is swapping it in when it gets here.

 

[Desert_K5]

@Fastereddie sent me some good news today! Yeah buddy the L83 is here and the 77 is headed to his house for the swap.
