Скачать или смотреть Prepping Van For Saskatchewan

First year we made more money than working up north.
Picked up lil over 100 basements to wire on a Saskatchewan, on a first nations reserve. They maintain their own roads, so we had to take a few precautions.

There was the seasonal snow threat, and the all year threat of loose livestock, or "livestock at large" as the signs say. Also excessive wild and loose dogs, moose, and more dear than I have seen in the last decade.

I actually purchased a real limited slip differential, after the final failure of the Astro van lincoln locker. But we had to install it and go to Saskatchewan the next day, and it was in the form of a full axle off a dually cube van. I need to deal with brake lines, change out the brake shoes, add leaf springs wile that is all getting installed. Then there are the duallys, I need dually rims, tires, and fenders. Not happening in an afternoon. So Lincoln Locker it is. This proved to be a GREAT idea.

Our brand new tire chains broke almost every time we used them, 3 times a day, so most of the time we only had one chain on one wheel, which worked surprisingly well, as seen in the video.

After rain, all the roads iced over, and we lost steerability in the van, so we put a chain on the front and one on the back. That worked awesome that day, till the back one broke, we had to put the front one on the back. Next trip, we pack more chains, small shackles to repair the chains, more bungie cords to keep broken chains away from the brake lines, and more beer.
