    For a just-finished-barely-tested rig, pretty darned good. No issues at all aside from a weepy 205 tail shaft seal.

    I wasn’t really keeping track of how many times I fueled up, but I averaged about 13 miles per gallon.

    It sure was.

    I think he gets the long distance award for this year. That's one hell of a haul on a just completed build.

    Bravo! Have fun on the rocks!

    My truck got attacked by the ugly bomb, lol. It’s a long multi-part story. Haha.


    by count of the number of empty additive containers, I’ve fueled up 4 full times on this trip so far.

    I was just wondering how you were doing. Glad you made it. I have extra 205 seals if you want me to bring 1.

    I was scared too, but I didn’t have a choice, lol.

    I brought a couple extra with me. I wouldn’t mind getting a new seal in, if someone wants to lend a hand. I have a torque wrench, but nothing to pull the yoke out.

    The yoke “should” just pull out, but I did toss a 2 jaw puller in my tool kit.

    Never needed any puller on tcase yokes.
    If it had been a while or someone put silicone I had to tap a couple of times
