Played all weekend... Camping with my son at White Rock, Arkansas.
I put in a new sound system.
Dang, that looks like some serious coin. Very clean.

Took the side steps off and did a lot of interior cleaning.
Painted and installed OPOR sliders...
Hit 6 digits on the odometer today.
After breaking replacement key fob shells time and time again (one cracked on the second crank) I came up with a solution that I think might just last a few years. If there's interest I'll offer them up for sale. 3D printed key fob shells:
Cranking the 100 series with a solid key (non-remote) feels sooo good, but not having the remote is lame. Now I'm living the dream, haha.
Where do I send PayPal?
Im also local, pay cash, and can pick up

One unplanned downside of replacing my home-brewed drawers and fridge slide with the ARB Outback setup (info here) was that I could no longer fully open my fridge (50 liter National Luna fridge/freezer). The lid opened enough to fish out beers, but hit the rear hatch. No bueno, especially if you want to use the included baskets or get into the fridge with just one hand.
With all the time I've spent under the truck replacing shocks to get just the right amount suspension travel, it dawned on me to extend the lift support struts. Pretty simple in the end.
Called Lift Supports Depot, aka Mr. Lou's and talked to Brendan about what I was trying to accomplish. He had a couple ideas, and with a quick test fit, we found the right answer (IMO).
Started with a set of their off the shelf OEM replacement lift supports
Brendan's solution was to replace the standard ball socket with this one which is a bit longer than standard, creating a custom (and even adjustable) length. Took him 5 minutes to put the bits together and we bolted them up right in his parking lot.
Finished product...just add beer.

I put Elsie on a slight diet. I FINALLY removed those nasty fender flares that the Southern/Gulf States distributers installed. Looks better! Found it interesting that there was about a pound of dirt behind them. I still need to clay bar the fenders and doors and wax it, but I did get all the gummy tape off. Soaked in WD40 then used a hair dryer to heat it up and peel the remnants off. Pics to come of before/after/dirt...

Is this something that you got at the dealer?
^ This. That's a really good match.
Nope. eBay. Someone on here posted the link a while back and for $10, I gave it a whirl. I used 1/4 of the fabric on the 4 doors. Plenty left over to do the sub when I get around to it.
