Sound like you could also give Tink a call for some friendly advise, if needed

Or you could have brought it to me and one of my very experienced tech's could have done the work... I just bought the Mister Transmission in Newmarket, I will give FS'ers a good discount   

Congrats, Aaron!

Does it look like this one?

Nice write up, Tink!

Sounds like a PITA though.

I tried to find a "cheap" pump kit for pumping fluid into tight spots a while ago with no luck, I will have to have another look at PA.

what we need trailer manufacturers to build is a simplified toy hauler type trailer with windows and side door that is not yearly safety sticker required but has actual room inside for 3 or 4 sleds or atvs.  Something more hauler then camper but looks camper

 

 

 

Do toy haulers require the annual safety seeing as it is a camper too?

Someone converted an old school bus into a sled hauling vehicle.....I saw it years ago online, pretty cool.

I wonder if you still need a B license to drive the bus!

TC227 is a larger trailer, but I think it is rated for three sleds (not sure what size though)....4 must be a tight squeeze.

As of late, 1000 to 1500 miles.

My old norm was 2500ish miles....but loosing the riding circle that I used to ride with stopped that, plus kids, life, etc....

I sometimes do....and not sure what dictates when or why I do.

Likely when I am on a smooth trail, where control is a non issue.

I really do think it is a waste, but I still find myself doing it sometimes....bad habits I guess! 

I could but rarely do....I rather trailer the distance to trails & conditions I enjoy riding on.

And lake running around Simcoe no longer interest me.

Hahaha... He denied my expenses for a 5 man crew over 3 w/ends cleaning up from the ice storm years ago but mysteriously his expenses went thru. He wasn't even on the MPSC board either, weird eh.

His expenses must have come in cheaper, right ?!?!?!?

Don't count on it, trails there are heading for the toilet bowl. Govt is pulling all grants and funding that supply groomers and paid operator's. They came to Ontario for insight on how to run a self funded system. 

Interesting comment on the bold, do you have anything to substantiate that?

Not doubting it, just with it being QC, I am very surprised.

Quite possible on the bold.  It will be interesting to see what happens this year.  I'll still buy my pass and ride around here.  I saw that D7 and D10 are merging together (correct me if I'm wrong)  Going to be an interesting winter ahead

Me too....buy and ride (hopefully). 

I read the same thing about 7 & 10.

Was following this to see all the comments.  Guaranteed more and more sledders will head to quebec

Only reading the notes C&P above, sounds like bad feedback, but if it was passed by 70%+ of clubs, there must be something to it that lots of the clubs see value in? I can see where there concerns are with this though, seems like the clubs will loose their individual control/identity of their gear, machines, fundraising money, etc....

Maybe the ones that do not like it, are the clubs "hiding" things! 

Are there actually any changes for this year, besides the colour of the permit?

I'm not familiar with the brand you have, but if you compare it to other manufacturers selling the same trailer, are the axles located in about the same location?

In the beginning I fogged....but stopped that a while ago, now start once a month.

Great for young kids to boot around on!

Heard roadside testing for pot etc will soon be or is already in place.  To bad for fail.  Careful what you wish for.

As it should be and should have been long time ago....since when is driving high as a kite acceptable over drunk!

I know the majority of folks (that I know) will say they know when too or not too drive when smoking.....

The other side of the coin is, what if you are on prescribed drugs and you fail the drug test, than what?!?!?!

Well, people always thought the OFSC was rather "liberal" with the permit dollars!

Adding some weight should help, but really should not matter when towing a trailer.

Level or nose slightly down is preferred for sure.

Also, you drive a Ford.....that might be the issue, might be time for a real truck

Congrats on the trailer too!

Well come on, that is the least we can do for all the volunteers.....through them an all expense paid party....lol

I do not think you will see the same input here as before in regards to these sorts of things....

I wondered if you had much use for that place at the forest given that you are now not that far away.

Are you still going to ride much in the forest, or at all?

He will loose.

Hydro One provides hydro to your meter. 

Buddy should have had his meter removed and account cancelled till he got his end sorted out first then have it hooked back up.

A lesson learned for all of us.

I do not think so.

Not having power was not his choice, Hydro One did not complete the repair.....which is why he is paying the "delivery" charge, to ensure the lines actually work as we expect them too for what we pay the thieving bastards for!

If Hydro One was going to take this long to restore the power, they should have removed the meter as a "common sense" protocol, or place his account on hold until they resolved the issue. 

Given that there has been a record setting number of complaints about Hydro One, if he insists to talk to management, this will be resolved....if he only talks to the sheep call center pylons, he will pay.
