    Waxed my roof in anticipation of installing my new roof rack. Figured I wouldn't get back there any time soon once the rack is installed. Assembled the rack also and am ready to install this weekend.20210924_172553.jpg

    Any time, and I do mean any time, we need rain all I have to do is detail one of my vehicles. It never fails.

    also cut a hole in my grille for the winch control box so everything is as tucked as possible

    My idea to deter stolen rotopax containers. Didn't feel like paying for the locking mount so I worked with what I had. 20210925_102203.jpg 20210925_102249.jpg 20210925_102320.jpg

    Too many to list.
    Installed some bed support from Cali Raised. The bed bolts are shite so I used a little heat to get them off. Ordered some replacement bolts too.

    Had the week off to hit the mountains and on the way up noticed the clutch started slipping in 5th and a pretty harsh chatter in reverse. We took it to a cabin and gave her a break with no trails.

    Just sat there and gave me the disappointed look all week.

    OK, thanks. I thought that there was some new formulated brand that made it.

    I know that Cerakote has a trim kit that I've heard good things about on the forum. What I'll go with when I'm due.

    Installed some new UCAs today with a coworker in just under three hours. I went with the Freedom Offroad UCAs... They seemed like the best bang for the buck for a guy on a budget such as myself. Everything went smoothly except for forgetting to make sure the driver's side brake line was on the OUTSIDE of the UCA when we first installed it. Rookie mistake:censored: The front end definitely feels tighter than the stock, practically blown up 200k mile OEM uppers. IMG_2473.jpg IMG_2476.jpg IMG_2478.jpg
