    Diode Dynamics makes a plug and play harness, replace their switch with one from Any Time Back Up Camera.

    I use DD SSc2 lights with red backlight. The back light acts as a marker light and the white light as back up light or switched to operate independently.

    New upper and lower radiator hoses, new heater core hoses and fresh coolant. I highly recommended some cable operated hose clamp pliers especially for the heater core hose tucked way behind the engine near the firewall.

    Thanks @RustyGreen for the 5/16 drain hose method on the engine drain plug and radiator drain. :hattip:

    Nice skids. I have a similar setup with the steel skids. They have saved me with slamming down on a rock near the transmission skid. Steel skids are the to go if you go on rocks.

    It is hard to imagine anything damaging those steel skids because I am not the Hulk and that transmission skid is a beatch to maneuver. But I still trust when people say that their skids were mashed while the under parts were safe.

    And while I am not fully bitten by "the bug", I wonder if finishing with TC case skid does not make sense. UCAs and struts will stay the same for a while.

    This sounds like a very slippery slope, and I'm not talking about a slope of mud or scree :)

    I spent the evening giving her a good wash and ceramic spray coating. I have a wash routine using these two products and when used as directed, I have zero swirl marks. I’m very happy with the outcome.

    Your ceramic spray coating isn't going to bond to the paint well on top of that wash n wax.
