What about a 7 way trailer to a 4 way truck.

@@morrisw7227 should be very easy. Right turn/stop wire to green on the four pin. left turn/stop to Yellow, running lights on trailer to brown on four way. The ground should still be white on trailer to white on the four way pin. Terminate black, blue, red and purple on 7 way as you won’t use them.

This is for standard trailer wiring, automotive standard. If your trailer does not use this and instead uses RV standard, the colors are different

Well here’s my thoughts. For what it’s worth. Seeing how jump packs are made with lithium batteries and used to jump off your car or truck I’m quite sure it will be ok to use your lithium trolling motor battery to jump your starting battery. So long as it’s a 12v system not 24 volt.

What's your take on the Vault hubs? 6 years on mine so far, and fair guess would be 6000 miles. There is no slack/play with wheel off ground. Just a little bit of sling inside the wheel this year on 100 mile trips, but not bad, wipes off easy and I'm keeping close eye on them. Great job on the videos. Will post my upgrades soon!
@PaulsOutdoorAcademy Ай бұрын
6000 Miles amazing - Mine gave out LONG before that. :) I switched to bearing buddies. The thing I didn't like about the vault was the specific grease it required and how you had to add more. It was confusing to me how to know when to add, but you had to watch that black cap, which is pushed out by PRESSURE on purpose. It should stand proud of the hub center. As long as it does, you are good to go. If it is flat, you may want to look for that grease. :)

Excellent videography, procedure and explanation! I need to replace that filter on my engine and wondering (after watching your cowling removal video) if the cowling can be separated enough, without removing the rigging, to gain access to where the fuel line meets the rail. If so, do you think there would be ample room, once the cowling is pulled away without fully removing it, to: 1. remove the Oetiker clamp 2. wrangle the fuel line off of the fuel rail 3. replace the filter, reattach and clamp the fuel line Seems like if you have to go through all of the steps to split the cowl, it might be a whole lot less time and effort to eliminate all of the steps to remove the fuel rail.

@timjs123 sorry I didn’t understand that part. So you are trying to avoid removing the rail. I will say this, it was very difficult to get the hose off of the rail, even when I had it off completely. You could try while leaving it installed but I would worry that when you are apply Twisting motions to the gas line, you will be putting too much force on the rail. I am not confident that you can do this without removing the rail but honestly it wasn’t bad.
