Quick Bits

Adding more stuff to my parts list for the sled engine for rebuild. Have to wait on a clutch puller to go back in stock. Apparently the hex clutch requires a special tool to help pull it off without damaging it.

A belated R.I.P. to JimD. That hits hard. There’s so many things I wanted to ask him. Bet there might be a bum rush on clutches. See the Max-Torque thread in Engines and Clutches for info and links...

He was just in here replying to a post on the 27th. Seems so sudden. I'm glad I got a couple of his clutches, based on advice he gave. Makes them more special.

Sadly, many such cases, especially when you are up there in age. He was 80, nearly made it to his 81st birthday, which would have been on the first of this month. My dad is 74, and I am not looking forward to that day ever.

I feel you. My Dad is 91 and although he seems healthy and is his usual ornery self, I anticipate and dread the call.

Any wild life guys help me out with this skull I found.
Found in the mountains. No other bones near by.

Left side. Missing snout would be pointing 7oclock.


Left side more of a top view. Same orientation.


Bottom view. Notice the flat molars. Front is 11oclock.


I argued with AI for a while. Kept saying it was canine or feline.
Then it said raccoon or possum. Lol. Not any of them for sure.


Also ran into some rather large prints.
These are either black bear or mountain lion. The soft ground didnt leave pad or claw prints but there was some weight to whatever it was.

Looks like an herbivore. I found pig skulls, so far, that have that opening at the rear of the eye socket. And “incomplete” eye socket.
Fun challenge.

You have AvE hands.

Why thank ya, kindly, bud! Focus you fack—these high-mileage, New Mexican-grade d__beaters ain't pretty, they're just skookum as frig. Years of "safety third," plenty of ugga-duggas, and zero moisturizer mean they're built for wrenching, not modeling, and guaranteed to void any warranty they touch.
