    That kinda sounds like bad memories and poor life choices of a prior me when living in TX - orange MD 20/20. Still brings a shiver when thinking about it and the Sabine River.

    You just reminded me of MD Swampwater where you mix all the MD flavors together. Also, you just made me think of Four Loko. Ewwwww.

    That Blazer's going to be great when it's done.

    Also I'm envious of the garage space and can't wait til we can get the driveway carport torn up for decent space.

    I jealous you all have a garage to work in. Damn City Of AJ said i couldn't build one with taking down my front patio:censored:... Even though the patio was installed in 97' way before i owned the house.
    So I built a carport just under the permit regs and it has served me well!

    It’s ok, not my favorite but I’ve tasted worse. My light drink of choice is the truly lemonade variety pack. Worth a try if you haven’t had it before. I dislike seltzer but this hardly tastes like seltzer.

    I’m trying to find the energy to work on my truck this weekend. She needs so much attention. So many pops and noises up front. Sway bar is going to stay on and I am going to soften and lower her about 1 inch. Will pull the sway bar when I feel like doing off-road things.

    I was at least able to pop in some fresh Brembo pads to replace my worn TRD pads. I just bedded them and they seem to stop pretty well.

    To-Do List
    • Pull the 5th leaf out of my Deaver Stage 2’s, lube everything, fresh coat of paint, fresh U-bolts, see how she rides and see where she sits.
    • Replace the UBJs on my SPC UCAs. Got the new sealed units.
    • Refresh my 6112’s with new KYB Upper Mounts and OEM Lower Bushings. Likely swap back to 600# springs. Replace lower strut bolt with the full shank 4Runner bolt. Pull and check condition of LCAs.
    • Pull steering rack and replace blown out bushings with JD Fab kit.
    • Pull winch and front bumper to be able to remove the grill and install B&M Transmission Cooler.
    Hopefully I can get through all this by the end of January in between work and life. More stuff. Yay!
