have been driving it a lot, got 18.5 mpg on the way up and back to ouray and silverton, then towed a raft and a seriously heavy trailer to the san juan river. heres some pictures from my travels

awful mpg towing the raft, luckily not my boat or id have justified some 4.88 gears to myself

western colorado sure is pretty. winch still isnt installed, haven't decided if I mount the control box to the bumper or extend the wires to put it under the hood, my gut says under the hood but it involves making some new wires for the box and I've been feeling pretty lazy lately

valles caldera for the eclipse

the cragars really bling it up, it used to be owned by the city of espanola at one point. thankfully its not mine or id have justified myself into more spending on the 4runner with 4.88s and a front locker!

Thanks for the plug on the seats, I was just quoted $1,400 at a local shop to have mine reupholstered.

On the way home from skiing I got a pretty bad misfire, limped it home and had to figure out getting it in the garage since the door is really low.

All 4 tires at 5psi got me in the door and it was time to order some parts. While ordering parts the “while I’m in there I might as well do ___ too” sickness hit hard and I ended up with plugs wires, injectors, valve cover gaskets pcv valve, and a bunch of other stuff.

As you can see the valve cover gaskets were way over due.

Knowing those plastic covers on the injector wires turn to eggshells as soon as you think about moving them I wrapped them in tape and broke them apart so they could be replaced with Tessa tape and split loom.

The garage couch and beer were essential to this project.
