    Project list for this spring keeps growing...

    Diff and t-case fluid change
    Remove, sandblast, and repaint all my armor - full skids, sliders, and at least the front bumper (the rear bumper is still in decent shape)
    Marlin Crawler LCA brace kit to install
    All-Pro fuel tank skid to paint and install
    All-Pro BMC plates to install (not going big on tires yet, but I will be down the road)
    Snorkel to install (once I get it from Jared)

    Adding:
    Iceco VL45 fridge and slider - this is going to be a good one hopefully, I want to replace the rear seat with a shelf to mount this on. It will also give me better access to the molle panel behind the seats. Have to consider that I will still need to put 1-2 dogs on the back seat from time to time as well.
    Frontrunner jerry can mount for the roof rack
    Chase lights on roof rack

    Considering:
    ARB Dual compressor with Slee mounting bracket under hood

    Installed some chase lights, a switch panel and a LED flash controller today. Just waiting for a few extra switch blanks to close up the panel.

    Also over the past few days;
    Changed the diff and transfer case fluids.
    Oil and filters (oil, cab, engine).
    Removed all the skid plates and sliders, got them over to be media blasted.
    Cleaned out all my winter gear.

    Tomorrow I think I will be cutting a hole in my fender.

    I'm horrible at in-progress pictures, but we'll see if I can remember.

    I think I missed those ones. I know you mentioned it to me but I couldn't recall exactly where you said, and the directions said to close off the ones on the intake tube, I must have been thinking they were the same. I got the ones in the intake tube but I'll go look for those ones.

    FWIW, the Top Spin sounds pretty neat with the engine under load and pulling a good amount of air if I have the window down. The sound's kind of addictive. This is not a good time to find something new to make me want to put my foot to the floor on every hill...

    Somewhere in there I installed the retro stripes but didn't add any pictures.

    Snorkle is on, the decals went on before it did but I'd never posted them here.
