Day 3319

 I got up a little before 8, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  The temperature was 38.  We needed  above freezing temperatures to avoid freezing rain.  Yeah.

I did a little surfing and then got out the Reflex to start work on it.  I started with the diffs.  They were a pain as usual.  It didn't help that I had to screw up an redo a couple of things.  I put the diffs in the body and that's when the trouble started.  One of the diffs wouldn't mesh correctly.  I spent a lot of time (hours) trying to isolate the problem and get it to work.  It seems that it needs a shim on the ring gear.  The kit doesn't have shims.

The temperature had dropped to 35 and it was raining (.7 inch eventually).  I didn't feel like going to the garage where the shims MIGHT be.  I gave up and put everything away.

After that it was a little more surfing and then videos.  I got bored with the videos and watched a movie.  I'd seen it before, but at least I knew it was entertaining.

That was it for the day.
