Introduction

Hi Fellow Nomad Owners,

I had better say Hello -- been checking out your Forum for some time before I decided to purchase my 2008 Nomad. I have noted many useful ideas and implemented many of then even before my Nomad has been delivered from Dealer. As it is still snowing up here in Orleans/Ottawa Canada.

What I mean I have ordered several Items in advance -- Judges Washers -- Doran TPMS -- Heated Gloves both waterproof, breathable, and Wind resistant -- Drivers Backrest -- OEM Shop Manual & Clymer Shop Manual (One for Saddlebags) -- Smart Chock (Stand her up straight) -- Chucksters Jack Adapter -- Cam Chain Extenders -- Goodyear TripleTred 205/60R16 Car Tire -- Photon Blaster with Alert Function -- Custom Dynamics Flashing LED Brake/Running Light --KISAN Modulating Headlight -- RAM Mounts -- Illuminated Battery Bug -- Plus have Dealer Service Drive Shaft with Moly Grease on Splines Front and Back -- Grease Swing Arm -- Moly Lube Rear Wheel Drive Splines -- Clean Throttle Body -- Grease and adjust Steering Head Bearings -- Bleed and change Clutch Fluid, Brakes Front & Rear -- Flush and replace Cooling System Anti Freeze, ETC ETC.

See I have been reading your many Tips!

Northern Dancer,

Thanks,

Ron
