So as I went I deleted rows and saved until it was all gone haha. There’s still like 4 lines on it left. I do have a sheet of parts that is kind of updated I can send you if you’d like
My list also breaks dopwn between summer-only vs. winter-optional tasks since the truck lives outside. Can't paint in winter. Maybe not so much an issue in Brisbane but maybe the wet season impacts schedule.

Spent 3 days on the GA Traverse, including one POTA activation, then attended a ham fest. These photos are day three.

My POTA GO BOX was dead so I hooked up my radio to the main battery in my 60. I have the Power Pole plugs connected to my main battery to connect a trickle charger when needed.
 
Quick Run this weekend to a local State Park. Met my Brother and family down from Philly for a nice couple days of camping. My son came down with our Motorcycle as well. Was a good time and nice reset from the daily grind. Simple trip and close by but was enough for a much needed recharge. The old girl did great.

Painting mine is on the list but its way way down the list haha.
 
Now that my 60 can travel at like normal speeds i am noticing a ton of new noises that were once masked by the sound of my super loud 2F with headers. There seems to be a ton of wind noise at the driver and passenger windows. It seems like its coming from the very front of the windows where it comes to a point like above the side view mirrors. I have the window runs replaced and the felts replaced. Does anyone else have this noise? My door seals look to be okay but will replacing these as well remove that noise?


Im also Trying to track down some drivetrain vibration issues now too. The extra power seems to have shown the age of my rear axle. I rebuilt the T case when installing the advance adapter but itseems to be making a high pitched noise that is throttle dependent. Very light throttle at cruise has it whine, and then stops when i let off. Going to go out and remove my driveshaft and see if it does it without a drive shaft. I am hoping the vibrations and noise are coming from my rear axle because i have a fzj80 axle waiting to go in and i can rebuild that one with new bearings and just live with the racket and vibrations until thats installed. Anyone have any similar problems after an LS Swap? Pinion angle and output flange are within 1* of each other so i doubt its driveline angles
 
Slight facial rearrangement. I couldn't do this again if I tried.
