I built a rear storage system with the help of my neighbor.

That table could go in my living room, well done.

Washed my 92 for the 4th time this week. It's been unseasonably warm (60s) so the snow was melting all week.

On Friday I was driving on the interstate and there were 40mph wind gusts. I heard something that sounded like tearing away from the drivers side. (I thought one of the slider Windows got sucked out or something. Anyway, I pulled over to check. Fender flares were there, Windows and seals all there, vent there. Got back in and kept in driving. Well, I figured it out today. The black trim on the rain gutter is no more on the DS. I had thought about removing it because I thought it was superfluous. Now that it's gone I kind of miss it.

Replaced my power steering gear box. Maybe now I won't be a small version of the Exxon Valdez.
Any write up or pics of this replacement? If not, did you use any threads on here to help you out? Thanks.

Part of mine popped off on the passenger side. I could not get it to seat properly, but noticed both were really sun faded and kind of brittle. I took them both off and the look is growing on me. More utilitarian and less plastic crap on my rig.

It had popped loose at the A pillar but I could pop it back on. She's gone now. I'll probably peel the other one off when it's a little bit warmer. As expected there was zero rust underneath.

I'll probably paint that area white when I do my roof. I don't know for sure.
 
Pulled my driver's side back tire to figure out what the $$%% was going on with my brakes - inside brake pad done fell out - to the detriment of my rotor, so time to do the brakes! I want to rebuild my caliper - before I do the research, anyone know of a good rebuild kit?
 
Popped the bonnet for my standard w/end check of stuff that whirs, rumbles, etc and ran my finger over the s/c belt. Been figuring it was time to change soon (for the past few years :) )

Felt quite 'dry/shiny' so flexed it a bit and definitely quite worn. Popped it off and it just split as I flexed it a bit. Yeah, got my money's worth out of it I think :hillbilly:
