The link is finally broken, cut off . . .




The frozen link is cut and a new ratchet tie down will be installed. Just another small round to it needed for the upcoming Kiptopeke adventure.

By golly, some very old tools work just
fine today. The rebar cutter shown
below is at least 40 years young.
Most bit the dust trying to cut Japanese
rebar.









Got my truck back and the pad wear indicator wasn't the problem. It was some kind of gimble bearing ( electric that works the 4X4) and lightened my wallet by near $500. Wonder why prep for Kiptopeke always seems to involve expensive truck mainteneance/repair.
