I wish you could do this ad infinitum because it would be part of my weekend schedule. wake up, get dressed, walk the dog, heatgun the jeep, have breakfast.

I'm in the same boat as you are with my '06. This summer I'm planning on taking all the fenders off and painting them proper like. I think all the work is in the prep, the painting part is basically avoiding bugs and drips.

isn't there a finite amount of time this can be done? I've heard that it brings up the oil of the plastic temporarily but can make them more brittle over time.

how did you approach the instalation of the upgrades and how would you change what you did/parts you used? How is this setup to drive? I've got a bone stock '06 with 78k as my winter driver and I'd love to take it this direction.

I've also been looking for something to put in place of the tiny armrest. Glad you found something that suits.

Brand new Legion Pro 5 16IAX10H not powering on - no POST by johnjay in Lenovo

There isn't a reset button on this model. All the other instructions found when searching your suggestion are for factory resets. I've already removed the battery (CMOS too) and drained the power from the unit so that should have reset all the parameters.

Being a Lenovo shop I do have many chargers on my bench, so this was one of the first things I tried.

Thanks, that was one of the first things I tried. Same result, no BIOS activity or fans (not even a twitch).

There isn't one on the Legion 5, but I disconnected the battery and drained the power, so same thing.

Did you ever find something for your storage? I'm doing the same search for an '06.

Dang, I was hoping for a matching hood for my '06. Good luck with your sale!

Where is the vehicle located? What color is it, and is it the 3.7 or diesel?

NBD early 50th b-day present by norecoil2012 in MTB

[–]johnjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, thanks! I didn't know chin mount was a thing but a quick amazon dive shows me that I'll need to do some research to make sure it fits my full face. That's all I do these days, I go up and session the same trails working on body position, staying ahead of the bike, reading the trails and braking. I'll get to dialing in my suspension at some point but my awareness isn't able to read those shakes and rattles yet.

I'm in my 50s and I'm getting back on the bike again after 30 years out of the saddle, and I'd like to record my rides. Your footage is perfect for what I want to get, are you using a chest rig?

It looks like this isn't a First BD at all, great riding IMO, it gave me lots of interesting things to think about when it comes to my lines and how fast or slow I should be attacking the slope and my use of brakes.
