    Next, moved onto the hydraulic system leaks the next day, attacked the two largest one. What a mess. Found I had missing washers and washers that were compression damaged - the ones with the rubber inner seal. Anyway, suffering the ills of not allowing for access once the body was re-installed - poor engineering - so what should have been a 15 minute job ended up into hours. The exhaust flange joints were a problem on the Madigan Line trip, once again 4 out of 6 bolted joints were loose, so swung past the bolt bar today and bought fine thread nots and bolts instead of what I could find in the bottom of the spares bag on the side of the road - expect this will sort things out. Found a protective corrugated sheath heat affected from the heat from the exhaust - so going to sheath it in high temp stuff.
    Headed down to Pirtek, laid out all my dirty laundry on the counter and the tech sorted it out without a problem, bought a new mini grease gun as well. Hope to get all this back together this week. Still have an odd high pressure issue to resolve. The front winch circuit idles at 60psi and selecting the rear, it spikes to 2200psi, think the spool valve is sticking on the rear winch. Another mystery to resolve.
