    Thank you for the birthday wishes! We’ve been remodeling the inside of the house so I’ve been mia for the last 9 weeks. The truck has been hauling everything you can imagine from Home Depot, tile stores, & dumping massive amounts of trash. I couldn’t imagine owning a house and not having a truck. Hope everyone is good.
    I did get a water port Costco unit on sale. I made so brackets like the jack mounts I made for it. I’ll post pics later cause I’m doing maintenance this week. Front brakes, oil change, & gear oil change. Happy belated birthday Brian! @uhplifted

    In the last few weeks I changed serpentine belt and installed the elo95r Dakar pack with the Dorman pads and a 3’ shim. I was running the dust boots on the rear shocks but all they do is collect dust and dirt. I couldn’t believe the shit in there, so I took those off. Also took the chrome bolts off the faux bead locks. I don’t like the new grill so I ordered another one that should be here in a few days. The eBay one is crap.

    I didn’t take pics along the way as I just wanted to get it done.

    Serpentine belt. Easy to replace, I didn’t take anything off. 85k old one still in great shape. I’ll keep it for a spare


    Said leaf springs. The Frankenstein pack I had worked good but started to sag. I put the Dorman leaf pads in the new elo95r pack and used wheelers bushings. Then added a 3’ shim. Rides smooth as butter with the ome carrier bearing drop. No vibes


    Took all the chrome bolts off the faux bead locks
    I need to get 35s

    You know what they say:
    Cleanliness is close to Ghostlyness.
    :D


    I did notice the vinyl touches all over. Didn’t realize it was new. Looks awesome man. Very tasteful.


    And your driveway makes my driveway look like garbage.
