Working AC! Even if it keeps blowing the breaker on high, beats nothing!
 
TREs, relay ends, all 555 brand bought new off gracious mud member.... painted rods funky per my usual style on the engine bay. Orange, dark blue and OME dampener from @cruiseroutfit which is yellow. Uglier the better is how I dig it.
Tried to do toe-in but was having an awkward time.... so then I let someone else touch her and even drive w/ an alignment at a Meineke. Poor kid had me hovering over him watching his every move.
Afterward I drove about 6 miles to fill up a 5 gal jug at a local spring and check the clamps... find the relay rod end barely ON the rod. So proceeded to get a wet ass on the ground to fix it. Well grrr. I did find a beautiful butterfly as I knelt down which was a treat to see upclose.

Oooh I see some Grassroots sticker, AER sticker, maybe SCCA and you're plucking cars from ditches with the SOFR??

Jim, do you moonlight as a sports car guy?
GRM, 24HL, AER, Chump, ProRally... I may be a sports car guy who dabbles in Cruisers.

You remind me of what all the drift bros do in japan, especially 326 power. I think you should go wild.

We linked up with four other vehicles from Colorado Land Cruisers. Took Medano Pass to the Great Sand Dunes and the weather was perfect.

Had some daylight left so we stayed on dirt as long as possible on the return leg by heading into San Isabel NF in the Wet Mountains. Springtime in the Rockies - ended up in the clouds with accumulating sleet and snow. It was 8 PM and I was low on gas when we got back to pavement.

Met a bunch of fine folks and had a blast.

@EasternYeti and I did part of that trail from the great sand dunes side and camped along the creek last August; was a really cool trail to run at 2am! Would be cool to do the rest of the pass if I'm ever back in that part of Colorado.

I love bright and obnoxious. I believe Onur @beno put together a build like that right? It’s really me. Took some tinkering with to extend the stabiliser... long flat head screwdriver in one eye hole and a long extension in the other, stood on one and twisted while pulling up. Finally gave up its grip but I was starting to think someone was playing a bad joke on me! @cruiseroutfit... tell Brice (so?) I appreciated his help on the phone.

This camping spot was fantastic, since I’m missing Moab this year I might head here first and just relax

And a nice, clean and dry birfield to go with the rest of the new & shiny stuff.
 
So I know Meineke is right up there w/ a Monroe Muffler but anyone have a opinion on a magnaflow muffer? Kid who did the alignment hooked me up w/ a cheap quote for from just behind the J pipe, 8’ of 2.5 pipe to a Magnaflow, custom bends, welded and then the tail pipe out the side behind the rear tire... $407.

Medano Pass / Great Sand Dunes are fine places to go.

Start on the east side and traverse Medano / GSD. Then cross the San Louis valley and take Stony Pass to Silverton. Stony Pass is the longest pass trail in CO. This puts you in prime offroad territory.

Magnaflow will likely be loud. Alot of the engine swaps to Chevy motors use them. Not sure how loud behind a stock engine though. Is 407 cheap? I think summit and others sell pieces you can put together yourself without welding. Couple of diesel guys use them for easy on/off at inspection time.... allegedly
 
Pretty sure its a Magnaflow with 2.5" pipe on mine. Nice rumble at idle but inside the cab at hiway speed I cannot tell it's a performance muffler. It came with the 60 so no idea about affect (if any) on performance & MPG.
