    Yesterday I finished up valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, cleaning of the MAF and throttle body and reinstalled transmission after replacing the throwout bearing. Next up is to install my Whiteline LCA bushings, replace 2 tires and actually get her back into proper alignment.

    Clean cylinder head. What oil do you use and change interval? How many miles on the power train?

    Mounted a roof basket on my OEM bars. Didn’t want a longer basket and this one is technically for bars with less between space.

    SO, ignore instructions, hacksaw, make stuff fit. Nice and tight now, ready for a couple duffle bags full of sleeping bags and tent next time we head out camping. Putting the lighter stuff up top will free up space in the bed and keep junk out of the cab.

    I removed my sliders a couple weeks back to do rust cleaning and re-painting. I get to mount them back tonight finally. Which bed liner did you go with? What brand sliders are those? Looks like it came out nice!

    You really want to end someones life for smashing up a vehicle? Not sure I could live with the guilt after that. I hope at least you fire some warning shots.

    For anyone who is hesitant due to the price, these Hondo Garage radio knobs are absolutely fantastic over the 2015 standard OEM. Worth every penny.

    Never enough
    Installed Kenwood DDX9906XR with iDatalink and friend made a custom box for behind the rear seats, fits two shallow mount 10s. Replaced stock JBL head unit. Retained JBL door speakers and amp to power speakers. Had to relocate JBL amp to under front seat. Whole project was a pain and my stereo buddy did pretty much everything.

    Nothing crazy exciting, but I can finally use the other half of my windshield! Bird dog mirror riser installed easy even though I have the electronic mirror. I put a piece of double sided tape on the top to support it better. However since the electric mirror has the connector which is long enough it sticks into the head liner I think that will also provide some support for it. 20200531_165733 (1).jpg
