    Changed the oil, front, rear and transfer case fluid, air filter and cabin filter. Trimmed a very small section of fender flair on each side to keep the new tires from rubbing and continued the good fight against the driveshaft vibes. I think I'm going to need pinion angle spacers. Maybe spark plugs next weekend.

    I'm surprised you managed to keep the stock bumper intact all this time, with this kind of wheeling :D \/\/\/\/

    Lockers, stiff suspension, tall tires, good spotters and a light foot FTW. haha oh and the occasional bypass, but I hardly ever use them surprisingly.

    Oh and as far as keeping the bumper safe, you should see the bottom of the tow package... haha. It is pretty shaved down. It takes most of the carnage.

    Today I made and installed LED bed lights.


    Spent a few hours soldering (3) 3' sections of LED lights. The LED's are flexible, waterproof and can be cut in to sections of (3) LED's or more.

    I still have a 15' roll, what to make next?

    The Switch, out of sight and harms way. I am going to add a black rubber cap to make it stealth.
