There has GOT to be a builder local that can rebuild it...I know of 2 places up here alone that can handle it.

Premier has proprietary rights on their alternators and wont sell the parts. That's the problem I ran into when mine fried

Interesting didn't know that.

If the snow's gonna suck ass (given the weather outlook, I am predicting a shitty outcome for good snow), then I will save myself a 2hr tow just to run shitty snow---I'll drive 1/2 hr to hit shitty snow! :haha:

Its partially why I didn't go with that one for sale Jim, that and the fact that the TJ alternator costs $800!!!!

I think I'll just save my $450 and buy a shop welder, and get a ready welder later on.

PS. The snow looks like its going to suck. ugh.

Anyone do a scout run? Snow looks pretty skimpy just looking up at the mountains and looking at the snotel site.

Im thinking of just hitting walker myself......not worth the drive anywhere for crap snow in my opinion

I could be tempted to do Walker instead. It really depends on how much snow I see at walker tomorrow.

I'm down either way, I just want to go play. What's everybody else think?

zukkev · Dec 31, 2013

Does not look good for snow at the usual spots close to town, I am gonna try and head up tomorrow before work, to even see if the gate open at NF, and give a report then...Further up the highway are a couple other places, but as mentioned, the snow is gonna suck regardless...We're still gonna go for some snow of some sort, just not planning on a real great day. Might end up being a Walker Run after all...

Crappy snow just is never much fun, a lot of work to go not very far. Probably be WAY worse than last year and last years snow was terrible!

It was a fun day wheeling in the snow. A few rigs got stuck and a couple of them got stuck enough for a weeks worth of wheeling. I don't have any pics of the stuck rigs, but I know there are people that do.
