    I have a set of Rigid pods from my last Taco that was mounted on a bull bar. Has anyone mounted these instead of a light bar behind the bumper grill location on a 3rd gen? I am a little hesitant to mount them as ditch lights due to someone snatching them.

    Also finished the install of some Clazzios

    I still need to take care of some minor stuff on the OGT before she's minimally ready for action. Gotta locktite the trans mount bolts to the new crossmember/belly skid and then I have to replace the rear mounting angle for the front skid and then install the front skid.

    Hopefully sometime before the Fall Camp & Ride, I'll get my winch installed, but I've had no motivation to do anything lately. It's too damn hot out.

    I need to find some new oem headlights. And I need to get new front hubs before the Citrus meet I think my bearings are shot. But I'm tenatively looking forward to that. It has been too hot to work on much.
    I'm getting a jump on my 100k mile maintenance and doing plugs this weekend. First time changing them in the 17months/18k miles I've owned it.

    I ghetto rigged a garage air conditioner last weekend while installing suspension for a guy. A couple of hours before he showed up I took a 22" box fan and placed it in my deep freezer with the lid propped on top of the fan and let it blow cold air into the garage. By the time the guy showed up the temp in the garage was around 75 degrees and quite comfortable to work in.

    I agree. Social media in general is cancer. I've deleted all of my SM accounts and am much happier for it.

    I've been working on work. My next week home is after Halloween.

    Agreed... I don't have any either and I haven't missed any of it. My wife is addicted and doesn't even realize it.

    Not recently. I've got the PSA AR's I built earlier this year about where I want them. I did pick up a PVS14. It puts my Gen 1+ night vision to shame (which was to be expected).

    I wish I had a garage. It would definitely have an air conditioner (or 2) in it with a polar icecap mode. I do have the box fan though. Not that it helps overly much blowing hot air on me, but better than nothing I suppose.

    Would anyone in or near Leesburg like to be my install buddy for a leveling kit this weekend or next? My place or yours. I have most all of the necessary tools and am confident I can do by myself but having another set of hands would be nice. Plus drinking by myself isn’t too much fun lol. Someone with a garage and air tools would be a huge plus as well

    So when I install my transfer case I'll need to make a cross member. Do you think it's worth it to do a 1" body lift to allow me to tuck everything alittle farther up?

    Prolly a shot in the dark, but do any of you gents have a Rotopax mount (just the mount itself), and a 3gal gas container (not a fuelpax variant). Maybe you aren't using or plan on using for just a little bit?

    Not looking to BUY it from you, borrow for a very short time (not using or modifying it, it's your property), but interested in purchasing here shortly and looking to mock up a general concept to see if that size containers fits my idea or not.

    im not a fan of body lifts, but sometimes they are necessary. my 80 needed a 1" body lift to clear my horse collar trans crossmember. 1" really isnt much to worry about, anything above that is just too much imo
