Had a blast this weekend! Got my cats out and now I'm officially emissions free!! Replaced the exhaust gaskets on both ends but the fel-pro gaskets don't seem to be sealing very well 🤨

Guess my next little project is some freshening up.
These are before pix. Going with anthracite gray grill and black Plastidip emblem. I’ll mask the chrome to keep the lines up front. I’ll update post with “after” photos.

If you don’t mind where would that be.

Sierra Buttes Fire Lookout

Pacific Crest Trail, Sierra City, CA 96125

Usually wheel in from camp and do the hike. This was a day trip, so I parked at head of hiking trail and did the ass kicking hike. Then 2.5 hours wheeling after...

@GW Nugget ... CONGRATS!!! Extra points for a proper amount of fuel in the tank!!


@voodu3 ... waiting for a writeup and wiring tips on the ditch lights, with parts sources and numbers of course so I can copy everything #thanks

@Outsane ... fujimoto oil valves are awesome. I run them on my sports car, but don't think I will do one on the wheeling rig. When I redo the LX that will never see a trail, this will be the go to for sure.
 
MIne has been falling off for years. Any pointers on adhesion?

I fixed mine with some RTV and couple of good clamps overnight. Super easy if it's still in good shape. Mine was jacked, but I had wrap put over it, simple fix.
 
This was the not so fun part of the process of replacing the rear emblem. 😫
The very pricey 3M eraser and some pro Goof Off Gel got it done...eventually.
