A GMC'er drove through 12 Mile Beach Campground in early July.  Looked like a Kingsley.  Anyone from on here?

Well, if it was around August 15th or so it was my son and family. A 5 day trip. First solo trip without the old man. It went well, everything worked. The newly replaced 3.70 FD and limited slip was great on the hills, up and down. So did the replaced governor gear work fine this time since replacing it in early July. We're still working out the speedometer ratio as with the reducer from JimK it was 5 mph too slow. Without the reducer it was 5 mph too fast. We are running without the reducer right now. JimK is ordering another one to take care of the different ratio. Once home we changed the oil in the FD as recommended after about 1000 miles. Still whines a bit but runs good. Put a lot into the coach in the last two years. More going on this fall, Merrell hitch, SS oil cooler lines.

Can't thank you all enough on all the help you've given over the last two years. Couldn't have done much at all without it.
