[QUOTE="duh09, post: 1541680, member: 10558"] Been out of town the past few days, catching up with some old friends but got back today and was fully motivated to get some stuff done. First up on the list was to pull the motherboard out of my RBL Pro8 switch panel that runs my lights and lockers. The back hatch glass has been busted for quite a few weeks and I realized too late that the lid for the board was not fully seated so the box it’s contained in had gotten a good bit of water in it and it had corroded a large section of the board. I yanked it out and attempted to resolder some of the pins, but no dice. Replacement boards are available so burned $100 on one. I will have to monitor it as I do have my box mounted upside down and it’s possible moisture may be coming in from the topside but we will watch that as we good. Hatch has been replaced so should stay dry. Nakey board post clean-up: [ATTACH type="full"]33901[/ATTACH] Also got around to ordering a new gearbox. I struggled to find rebuild parts for mine, so ordered a replacement from Bluetop Steering Gearboxes that is going to come pre-ported for the hydro assist. I’m going to keep the old one on the shelf and do some searching to maybe rebuild this one and have a spare on stand-by. Tried to move it in the shop to get the axle swapped and battery was dead. Motivation gone. I’ll have a bunch to do this weekend and I suspect my WJ buddy will be over to help swap doors on his so we will crank some work out then. [/QUOTE]
