Relocated the side entrance gas strut.
Properly sized by the 80 tech guys for trouble free auto opening

Not this weekend, but today...replaced broken battery terminal finally.
 
I have been here for a while as a lurker. I have built a few vehicles but mostly go fast stuff. About a year ago the wife and I added another member to our family. I wanted to start going out exploring and camping more so I drove from Phoenix to L.A. the weekend before last and picked up our new family wagon. Then last weekend I added new wheels and tires. I have yet to get it out in the dirt as I am just going through it and doing the maintenance.

That's a pretty cool approach to the latches. Nice looking bumper
 
That is my fav rear bumper. Nice upgrade!
 
Installed my DC Fabrications rear dbl swingout bumper. View attachment 1030673

I currently have a single swingout VPR rear bumper but really want a double swing out as I want the ladder to be able to easily access the roof. Just curious how everyone uses the ladder when you have the gas can holders attached to them especially when the cans are actually in there? It seems pretty difficult to climb over the cans to use the ladder. Sorry if this is the wrong thread. I can just as easily ask the question someplace else.

I only use the ladder to hold gas cans or a cooler. Sorry not much help there.
 
Got my new magnaflow cat (99006HM) and new denso O2s installed. Fixed my CEL and 0125, 0135, 0141 codes. Runs much smoother now.

Have pics? That appears to be a weld it style cat. Did you just have it welded to the header or have flanges welded onto it?
 
filled in a tiny spot where the abs used to be with a little compressor for the lockers. also ordered parts to reseal front cover and rebush the sway bars.
