Today I Rebuilt A Koi Pond Bakki Filter. I drilled over 500 holes in the bottoms of the Osiris containers. Pain in the ***!

5K gallons. Using Low Head, Low HP, High Flow Pumps required a less restrictive filter setup with larger diameter piping. Aquadyne Bead Filter, 3 Performance Pro 1/2 hp Pumps pumping 360 gpm. 2 H.O. Smart UV Sterilizers 160w. 2 Pondmaster High Flow Air Pumps. 2 18” MainDrain Air Bladder’s. Dosatron automated dosing system to remove the chlorine and metals inherent in the local Water supply.

Took the kayaks out on the lake in the next town over.

Also stopped off at the Ford dealership to and ordered 2 check valves (1 for a spare) for the from IWEs. After almost 2 years to the day since I installed the one currently being used, they started grinding again. Actually did it once on Tuesday and more today. Was going to pick two up on Tuesday after running errands but, forgot. They didn't have any but, will be on hand tomorrow. So, not only will I be getting new tires tomorrow on the truck but, the truck will be getting a new check valve installed.

Well, this turned into an expensive day.

1. Rock chip on the way to get new tires.
2. New tires (Michelin Defenders LTX M/S).
3. Check valve didn't fix my IWE issue, talked to a guy and he believes 1 or both IWEs are bad. Will get that diagnosed next week so for now the vacuum line to the IWEs is pulled and plugged.
4. Then I got a second rock hit. It created a long crack that changed my windshield fix from filling a rock chip to a complete windshield replacement. Glad I didn't get to putting my State Park parking sticker on yet.

BTW: Love the new tires so far. No road noise to speak of.

I wished I had it installed today, not once but twice! I sure as hell would have used it in full capacity, effing morons behind the wheel on Friday EVERYWHERE!

The beginning of a build today!!! About 6 months ago I traded in my 2013 fx2 for this 2018 shadow black 2wd Lariat. NO COMPLAINTS!! So far the additions include 2” RC level, 5% 3M ceramic tint all around, Power Deployable Running Boards, Ronin antenna replacement, F150 tailgate insert emblem, chrome bottom window trim, LSU Plate & Decal lol. I wasn’t planning on doing a lot more to it until I started roaming around this forum again Haha. Today I ordered the 4” BDS suspension lift. I’m gonna stick with the 20” OEM wheels and go with some 285/65/20 Ridge Grapplers. Thanks to some other members on here, (especially “Schraft”) I think I want to go with the “Stock +” look. Anyway, thought I’d share some pics.

Installed WeatherTech window visors today. Draft-free ventilation! It just may save our marriage.
