Had the day off so I gave Chloe some attention...
Installed the rock sliders I got from White Knuckle Offroad. I had decided that these would eventually go onto truck #2, but putting them on Chloe was a lot easier than finding a place to store them or continuing to trip over them in the garage. Should work pretty well as a step for the kids anyway.
Replaced my manifold to exhaust pipe gasket. Looks like I fixed the exhaust leak I found there while monkeying around with the carb.
Started re-finishing the FJ62 mirrors I harvested from truck #2.
Added some Seafoam to the gas tank. Carb acted up yesterday even after replacing the accelerator plunger that had a worn seal and the deteriorated rubber boot and running fine for a day and a half. The foam was on sale and I guess it can't hurt. Maybe it'll just help flush out any grungy parts until I have the time for a full carb rebuild.
Fingers crossed because we're about to load her up for the first family camping trip. Of course it's gonna drop into the 20's tonight...I'm sure we'll be fine
