FWIW all the toppers appear to be interchangeable.
Finally finished and painted my 4x4 labs rear bumper.
I fixed the orientation of my yotateq dorkel grille and gave it a coat of plastidip......
Wired up the inverter under the passenger seat - ran 2 ga back with a 250 amp inline fuse - I was going to upgrade but the 1500 watt Cenntech ( HF special ) fit in there perfectly once I cut down the sides of mounting platform ..... the larger 3000 and most other either were too wide or too tall. It powers a circular saw fine and my heavy duty elec lug wrench....

Explored some old mining camps around Death Valley.
@Douglas S yeah we noticed that if we removed the four rivets we could make it into the other topper. @Qball i think you should
But the darth vader is growing on me.

I woke up to a nice little 3" of snow on the ground. So I reattached my tow points on my 80 (I had taken off my hitch a week or so ago and had sanded them down and painted them to look pretty.) Loaded up my snowblower in my 80 and went and did a few of my friends' parents driveways. Then pulled a few people out of the ditch. Supposed to get another 7" of snow tomorrow so more of the same. Broke an exhaust hanger so I temporarily fixed. Needing to replace the exhaust but holding out until spring.
Also got my "daytime running lights" LED strips in. They were cheap $8 ones that I am putting on the inside of my hood as a hood light if I ever need to see under the hood at night. Just trying to figure out if I will switch them inside the cabin or if I will just put a toggle switch under the hood for them. Thought about a pressure switch but don't want them on all of the time when the hood is up.
Replaced a few hoses and ordered a few more. Burped my coolant system.

I replaced the faulty EGR valve and to my surprise the check engine light has not turned back on.
Oh and last weekend I overhauled the front knuckles.

Finished this a couple weeks ago.
Installed some projectors in my Depo headlights.

I installed Depo tail lights and front directionals, I'll get to the head lights and markers next weekend. I also tidied up the wiring for the auxiliary and bumper lights.
Whats the story on the yellow reflectors? I like it! Are they available from Depo this way, or is this something you added? If you added it, how'd you do it?

How have you made your roof rack? Looks like the direction I'm taking with my leftover Yakima bars.

Thanks!
These did not come from Depo this way. I used Vans JDM lens paint, I first did a trial run on an old headlight reflector I had in the garage since there would be no going back.

Yakima load bars with their small cargo basket. Bicycle wheel trays hold the shovel.
