Installed the slee battery/compressor tray. Had to move some things around. Moved my bussmann fuse box in front of the air box, previously installed where the slee tray is now. Also squeezed the manifold between compressor and airbox.

Put my old headlights back in as condensation kept forming on the interior of the Depo one-piece units I bought a few years ago.

Will try to figure out if they're leaking (they didn't do this until about a month ago).

Also did a quick wash as the temperatures here have been pretty mild for the past few days.
 
lubed all the driveline fittings. Major arm pump! But it was unicorn, set it up on the driveway with enough room fore and aft to move and get to the fittings, set the ahc to high and took a look underneath. All visible fittings in a line pointing straight at 6 oclock.
greased those and took the skidplate off. The front fittings also pointing at 6 oclock. I get worried when things go this smoothly.......... New brakes on Saturday.

Looks really nice. How long did it take you to install the bumper? How difficult was it? A lot of cutting?

Thanks!

About 4 hours, that included wiring the winch and adjusting the torsion bars. It dropped about 3/4" so I raised it back up to 21.5" as recommended. No cutting whatsoever.
 
I bought a high mileage ( 325,000 miles ) 100 a couple weeks ago that was in great shape considering miles. The PO had spent around $8,000 on it in the last 10,000 miles, new timing belt & water pump, ignition coils, radiator, brakes, rotors, and a bunch of other service items. Anyways, got it for $3,400 and it runs like a new one and zero drips on the underside. It's been in Tennessee since new so there's no rust. She's not perfect on the outside and the front seats look a little rough but I'm really happy with it. Ordered a new OME lift from Kurt at Cruiser Outfitters and got it on this week, also installed a Amazon snorkel, extended my diff breathers, and had some new 295 tires put on today. She'll be heading to the fabricator shop next week for sliders, roof rack, rear bumper with dual swing outs and front winch bumper. I didn't care much for the mahogany pearl color at first but it's growing on me.

This is the day I bought it


This is today

@10ga looks good! Those 295 TGs look great. I think I may pick some up for my new LX I got.

Thanks, man. I caught those last week on eaby for $508 delivered to the door. It was a promo Discount Tire Direct was doing. I've only driven them home but seem to be a good tire.
 
I'm sorry, they were $608.......had my numbers turned around. Still a good deal. Local shop wanted over $1000 for 4

It's one of the best colors, of course, I'm a bit biased ;)
