Sounds like an adventure Dave! Where have you been going? Seems like there wasn't too much snow around the Swell, other than the roads that gathered the blowing snow. However, East of Green River the desert has well over a foot of snow all over. Thanks for the kind words everyone, it was a good day to get out and explore the desert!
I looked at the receipt for the exact numbers, $60 in parts (seal kit and O-ring) and $260 in labor, $320 total. The pump seems to be working fine, no leaks.
A new pump from Toyota costs $450 or so, plus install cost. I could do it myself, but the tall pig doesn't fit in my garage!

Maybe as soon as next month. Optionals are next month and being the baby holding a regular job I get what's left over. It's a wait and see thing right now.
Been getting stuck out in the West Desert. Mostly, the snow hasn't been "too" bad, except for the dang drifts. A couple of them, after getting stuck, I was able to dig out, back up and take another run to bust through them and keep going forward. But the other couple, were so deep and heavy packed, just had to retreat after getting unstuck
Good eyes Daisy!
From what you could see, how do you think the snow is looking down around Hanksville? Thinking about a camping trip down that way sometime in the next few weeks.

At least it's Winter, we're not going to go too far right now. Hopefully by Spring you'll be back to being down here Sat & Sun.
