*that section of the box is external to the cold area, and it's handy to keep my phone (and sometimes sidearm) out of sight but close enough to stream music to my speakers, etc
*I even thought about installing streaming speakers into the cooler itself but it eats enough battery as is
Sometimes when he gets put in timeout they let him slide the cooler over in the corner with him so he can charge up his wireless speakers till hes ready to play nice with the other kidsahhhhh..... it is a portable cooler! Didn't know that.
Was thinking it was your interior camper fridge or maybe an exterior fridge installed inside a side box on your truck. Makes ton more since now.
Yeah, they are blood refrigerators from medical units. Can also set to freezer mode.ahhhhh..... it is a portable cooler! Didn't know that.

Excellent information, thanks for posting it up. Looks like a bit of brinelling on one of the cross pins that will for sure make some noise and cause issue. Anyways that’s what it looks like in picture #2. Can you confirm?Jacked up both rear axles & removed the rear driveshaft. Those caps played stubborn but finally came out.
I’ve smelt burnt trans fluid, burnt differential gear oil, and burnt wheel bearing grease but today is the first time in more than 61 years on this planet that I ever smelt burnt u-joint grease!
Could not detect any play / slop in the u-joints but I’m replacing when I get the shaft balanced.
Here’s some pictures of the u-joints. Take note of the “sideways 4” (or sort of a ‘Z’ depending on your perspective) on the one. Notice the shiny & dull areas. believe the shiny spots indicate areas that see the most wear (thrust and constant pressure from moving). Most of the rotational wear is obviously from forward motion.
Also, I was surprised to see plastic washers in the bottom of each cap - with machined channels for lube to ooze out to the end of the joint in the cap.
I don’t consider these u-joints bad or ‘shot’. But the burnt smell has me scratching my head a little.
I’ve got more of a ‘limp’ instead of a vibration or cyclic thump like you might get as you drive across concrete expansion joints along a Highway. I inspected more items a bit more thoroughly before I tackled the driveshaft removal. I did not notice anything out of the ordinary. Not sure how to check the pair of upper wishbone control arms in the rear. Nothing is loose and nothing is oozing grease. Torque rods also look good.
I’ve got different tires & rims and getting those married up & on the truck is quickly moving up the to-do list!
Except for the 1st photo, my fingernail didn’t catch on to anything. I’ll check again in the AM but Photo 2 was more of a shiny versus dull appearance. I didn’t see any burnishing despite that grease smelling toasted.Excellent information, thanks for posting it up.
