    I need to post some updates...

    - Relocated my winch solenoid into the engine bay compartment (thanks to Slimwood for supervising)
    --- With that I also installed some in cab winch power and control switches.

    - Replaced the thimble and hook on my winch line with a MasterPull solid thimble
    --- While I had the locked brummel apart also replaced the chaff and spool guards on the synthetic line.

    - Removed the large pin striping from the body exterior. Passenger side was dry and scaly and didn't go easily; still needs some more clean-up to remove some minor stubborn gunk. Drivers side came off no problem.

    I'll post up some pics later tonight.

    Changed inner and out tie rods and the worn out idler arm. Lifetime alignment paying for itself tomorrow!! :woot:

    Started to replace upper and lower ball joints but it became a lot more complicated than my night had time... Have the new parts just need to put the Dawg down for a bit to get them done.

    Starting a minor mx fix list to knock out before the Big Dogs trip in October.

    Couple cargo/sleeping deck pics:
    Two bins for dirty recovery gear and a 17"x35"x7" drawer for goods. Also some side storage cubbies with access to the factory side locations.

    Some concealed hinges already on order to replace the chrome piano hinge.

    Closed up; very stealthy storage

    The bins come forward to provide support for the sleeping extensions.

    Welded some tabs on these footman loops to create the slip joint.

    Finally got my sliders done... Turned out pretty well.
    I may have gotten a tad too much angle on them but what ever, they're done.
