A storm rolled through the valley. The weather in the desert can change quickly, be aware!

Kimmmmyyyy J. and I had to snip the old chain out cus it just wasn't right... 1/2 inch bolts worth 10,000 pounds down to a $1.29 coldshut rated to 900 pds when brand new (years ago). The only way to upgrade the system to at least two rings worth a lot more than that was to remove the old and start over again. Hopefully the new stuff will last a very long time.
