Going back together nicely... An hour or two at a time
I bought my first house today.
Damn 
Sorry for your loss. Put some bondo and plastidip on it and you're good to go off road!

So...not only do I have damage from the wreck to take care of, I decided to start baselining. The truck had been sitting for awhile and it would start hard and not stay running without a little pedal. After going over a bunch of stuff that turned out to look great....I decided to fresh up ignition components. The original wires from 93 were still on the truck and I just assumed that they would be shot so I purchased brand new OEM everything and went to town. I know the plugs were fiddled with and I will let pics tell that story but the cap and rotor were denso and still looked pretty good. The wires were actually in fantastic shape so I decided to put them aside for me to test and determine if I should hold onto them for spares! The plugs came out smelling like old gas. OP or whoever installed them decided to put old oil for anti seize and did not torque them down. All 6 were really easy to pull out. Almost no resistance on first crack. Gaps were all over the place! Also check out difference of what I pulled out vs new. Did the Distributor o-ring as well. Valve cover Gasket and tube seals are all dry as a bone!
If you look at the passenger side frame horn...it is tweaked right in front of the core support. I have already measured the entire frame underneath and it didn't move an inch. Fortunately the damage was the result of the ARB taking the hit from down below and when it got pushed up it had to take the mounting point on the frame with it. Super easy repair!
*Edit* Haha! I thought you were asking me! I didn't realize the other guy had an accident too! Ha! *Edit*
I have another thread on this, don't want to hijack. I don't think the frame is damaged, but there is no steering. There's no telling what got bent underneath until the adjuster has had his way with it and I can do an inspection. As a side note the cute little adventure boy that's pointing in my avatar is the one who wrecked it. Yup.
Is this goodbye?
That is sexy.
What are the details on these LED lights. Is there a thread I can go to. They look like they will plug right in. Am I simply being overly optimistic?
Finally got my rear lights completely wired in! Couldn't be more happy!

Come and take it
Working on popping the oil pan off and resealing it. Got the lower off and found that I wasn't the only one to drop the woodruff key in the engine.
