Strangely the only ground connections that I made, that have failed on me, have been big ones on the frame. Other than my personal, perhaps randomly skewed data, I agree with your statement.

Having someone try to break into a van you're sleeping in sounds pretty scary! Glad the police managed to be helpful in that case.

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

1) Put new shocks on the front. I had previously replaced the dead rears with Pro Comp ES9000 series shocks and liked them enough to move the fronts there. Don't love them as much on the front, but...

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

I have diamond plate in the doorway and it's plenty slippery when wet. I'd mask and paint sections with a healthy amount of non-slip additive.

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

Many little things and standard maintenance, but this might be novel:

Installed an automotive relay, wired to latch open with a momentary switch, into the "driver door open" signal line that goes...

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

I finally changed my fuel filter (v10 - gas) for the first time. I don't know if/when it was changed previous to me owning the van, I put ~ 15k on it.

This is the residue from draining the filter...

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

A couple weeks ago I finally mounted two solar panels that were left over from another project. Pulling cables was a bit of a pain, but I managed to get all the proper gauges into place without too...

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

I screwed two small boards to the floor with more than a couple of screw and attached tie downs for the (arb) cooler to it. Seems solid so far.

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

I pulled speaker wires from the doors, as well as power from the house battery, to under the drivers seat. That, and previously run RCAs from the head unit, allowed me to wire up a small/cheap...

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

I lubed my u-joints. The notable bit, is that it was trivial this time. Since there is no way to clip onto the nipples in there, I've been using a needle nozzle. What's new this time is a pneumatic...

Re: What did you do to your SMB today?

I think that answers my question as to whether or not I'm willing to add that to my todo list for this summer. I doubt I'd be able to spend more than two or three evenings on it, so this may be more...
