Changed the rear diff and transfer case fluids. 80W-90 in the rear, 75W-90 in the transfer case. Did the front diff fluids ~1500 miles ago.

Cutting it up, lost consedeabrle amount of rust now! Should be able to stuff some dirty sevens with no bodylift after I am done.
Had the original muffler swapped out for a Porter Muffler I bought a while ago for my station wagon. Now has a deeper rumble at idle and overall throatier tone, not much volume increase though which is ideal.
Also Installed a Wolfbox G930 with the upgraded camera. Might change the layout for It but currently the rear camera is on spacer block, 3D printed out of ASA, mounted between the license plate lights with 3M VHB Tape.

Thanks Trevor, for helping with the swap and thanks to @3_puppies for the smoking deal on a matching color code hood!
Out of curiosity, why replace instead of just repaint?Old hood off...

+/- 30 hail dents.
They aren't easy to see in the "Before" picture but if you look closely, it becomes obvious.
That’ll do it!

Installed Airlift 1000 bags in my ‘06 LX. Had to cut out hole a little larger for air hose. Mounted valve on bumper tab on each side. Decided to use two valves for leveling when overland camping.
Is it supposed to use diesel?
I've been putting my old gal back together, the interior panels are all back in and all the crap inside is cleaned out and ready for a good interior clean after the welding is done. Might even have lost my head and threw a bucket or 2 of water over her.
Look at her longingly through the bedroom window as I haven't driven her in a week or more . . .

how long did it take? I'm due with summer coming up. Also there's a guy on ebay that charges about 250.00. Would you still go the same route?
I didn’t see the guy that was charging for the labor but I did see someone selling the “buttons kit” for $60 which is wild cause the buttons are like $0.30 each times however many you’re replacing plus like $5 for shipping.
It took me about an hour and a half using solder wick. Personally, this was super easy. Just a little frustrating if you’re not experienced at soldering which I am not but it’s got a learning curve so not something a novice should worry about.
My buttons get here this week. Not excited for the process either.
I did this job several months back. Well worth doing and I thought it was kind of fun. Practiced soldering on a junk piece of electronics. I purchased a desoldering iron and that was great! I was sick and tired of pressing the A/C button 10 to 15 times to get it to turn off or on. Good job!
lol same! I park the rig outside and in the winter the condensation makes it impossible to see out the side mirrors so super nice to have functioning buttons and oh my god I am so excited to use the A/C button finally lmao.

Quick tip I would give is to make sure you put enough solder onto the contact points between the new switch and the board. I noticed it may look like the solder is coming into contact with the board but it actually wasn't and I had to take mine apart and fix 2 of the clock buttons to get them to make contact.
Everything works like butter now.
