Removed the factory roof rack after 14 years. Will run without for a while. Trying to decide between a half and 3/4 gamiviti.

After seeing them both, you're better suited to go 3/4. Even if you never use 1/4 of it, it's the time you needed it and didn't have it that you'll wish you did. Also looks great on the truck.
 
I did a drain/refill on the transfercase with amsoil SVG. I also swapped out the original fill and drain plugs with magnetic allen heads. I adopted a cool idea from the 200 forum by using the long magnetic allen head on the fill plug! The bottom drain can only fit the standard length magnetic plug.
 
@XAlent is there somewhere that I can see more pics of your ride? I really like the look of it... especially the green! I'm also not so secretly jealous of the fender mirror. How useful do you find it?
I haven't had time to take it out and get any good photos of it yet, and now it looks like my photobucket account has maxed itself out for the month! The green is a really nice colour, it's so deep. The guys did a great job on the bar, the paint is awesome.
The front mirror is a little quirky, it certainly makes the cruiser unique amongst the others I see. It works well, it actually has two convex mirrors in it, one lets you see all the way down the left side, the other gives you a view of the area right in front of the bar for parking up close. :)

Today I fixed the centre cup holder spring lid, the locating tab for the spring must have broken off. I managed to screw in a piece of stainless (from a worm drive hose clamp!) and use that for the spring to sit on. Works great now. And I changed the centre power outlet next to the cigarette lighter over to a twin output USB plug, and put an aerial amplifier on the radio. Picks up FM stations a lot clearer now.
 
I just did a drain and fill on the new 3rds and got a Firestone lifetime alignment and had it aligned.

Hacked the 12v cigarette lighter plug off of my ARB fridge cord and wired it directly to the battery with 10ga wire. Fridge is much happier now.
 
I finished my Prep for Cruise Moab.

I got my Front Runner Bandu style storage boxes mounted in the Front Runner bags on the roof. Changed my diff fluids one last time and ran a proper AGM charge cycle on my Diehard Plat. Marine batteries with the correct DH charger. I also swapped out another of my constant hot 12v sockets for a second Blue Sea dual USB socket.

The only thing I have left to do is pickup some parts this morning for Kurt from Cruiseroutfitters that I am Mudshipping for him from SoCal to Moab.
