PIAA 510 fog lights with the ion plasma lense work really well.

i fixed the broken intake tube with a couple silicon ones i grabbed off ebay. had to rotate the top of the intake box, but looks decent enough and idle below 2000 rpms now.

after:
Friday morning I went and had a set of Mickey Thompson Baja ATZp3's put on.
and a shot with my son. he was very excited the tires were "as big as him"
I also got it inspected so i can get real plates on it.

I flew my drone down there, pretty sure it was a boy scout camp.

A little bling (via partsouq.com). So 80's.
Great, great, day.
Picked up my bumper from Trail Tailor, aka @reevesci and I couldn't be more STOKED. Round trip from FoCo to Green River, 6am departure back at home at 4pm. Not too shabby.
I looked at all of the available rear bumpers out there and only Trail Tailor agreed (without hesitation mind you) to tweak the bumper to hold an extra storage box.
So Aluminess box was ordered and drop shipped to TT (don't ask me about my experience with Aluminess.... just note that they will not be getting any more $$ from me)
This is the final product, obviously powder coating to come next. Dual-swing out, spare, high-lift mount, box platform that can also double as a rear winch mount if needed, (and also apparently little dude's new favorite seat) Note that box location is approx as I won't bolt it down until after power coating is finished.
If anyone is debating on who to get a bumper from I highly recommend Trail Tailor. J- is easy to work with, great prices, he's a Cruiser guy, and all-around great guy. (his 60, 80, 100, and FJ Cruiser all grace his driveway) Do yourself a favor and give TT a look for anything you need custom, bumpers, sliders, suspension, etc. If he doesn't have it I'm sure he can BUILD IT.

I have used the vans spray with good results.

Both run to roughly the same spot on each side. There should be a grommet and ~3/4" hose pushed through behind each wheel well near where the rear floor harness goes across.
Double check the hatch glass gasket. Mine has leaked on both of my rigs and the water ends up in the rear quarter IIRC.

Drove the 80 200+ miles to visit and honor family members who served in the military, and place flags with the Boy Scouts at a local cemetery.
Thanks @bloc if both drain hoses follow a more.or less symmetrical path then the drivers side one is missing. There is nothing in the drivers side read quarter. I will.do more investigation today.

I second this. My sliders and rack are spot on. He built my rack exactly how I envisioned it. I wish I had the funds laying around to pick up his last 80 Series rear bumper. They are a work of art and incredibly strong.
And Jason is an all around good dude. I've purchased my vinyl flooring and Tough Dog suspension from him. Can't recommend him enough.

Got her a little muddy getting back to one of our fishing holes. It is normally accessible (and usually packed) via normal 4wd vehicles. Today there was nobody there. Could've been the rain we've had all week that made the path muddy and treacherous. Suckers!
I did this.
