Gorgeous rigGot to use the truck for truck things. Do you really need to use a 50 year old 5/4Ton truck to move firewood across the yard? No probably not. Is it fun to do? Yep!

Nice Looking Stove! Nice Set up!Finished v1.0 of my camp kitchen in the back of my XJ. Final piece was a solid sheet of 3/16” aluminum for a pull out table/cooking area. Working on a tire carrier-mounted DIY flip down table, but that will be bonus space. Swapping gas for water rotopax - gas is headed to the roof....wait I have more to do?!?

Bummer. But, at least you cut your time in half!Today I had the pleasure of rebuilding the starter solenoid for the 2nd time in less than 3 months on my 2018 4runner. Turns out the starter on these rigs don't like deep water crossings. First time I did it it took about 4-5 hours to complete this operation. Today I was under 2 hours so at least I'm getting better at it.

I was looking to see if there was a way to seal off the solenoid to water while I had it apart the first time but there is no real way to seal off the "pop out" side that pushes the gear that engages the flywheel. First time I pulled it apart there was a clump of dried up mud that was preventing the contacts to connect. This time there was moisture but no mud so I'm curious what stopped it from making contact.Bummer.

Ya got me there. Unless it's a matter of sealing up the connection with some non-hardening silicone. Not familiar enough with your rig.I was looking to see if there was a way to seal off the solenoid to water while I had it apart the first time but there is no real way to seal off the "pop out" side that pushes the gear that engages the flywheel.
