I've been horrible about posting what I've been doing, so here's two:
Raised my spare tire (285/75/16) with a new method to angle the rod, and very happy with the results:

Removed the trim on my center console, but OMG this was the biggest PITA. Anyone that 'just took it off' is either blessed, an amnesiac, or a sadist because I swear it took me 4 hours just to get the adhesive off. Goo Gone, Acetone, blades, scrapers, sandpaper, I dread doing the rest of the pieces. I had no choice though, as something had damaged the veneer and it had turned yellow and started peeling <sigh>

I'm seriously considering buying new pieces from Mr T if I can, assuming they won't have had the veneer installed (that was a dock item right?)...

Installed a brake pad clip today that my cruiser did not have, and actually is NOT in the FSM either (98 LC).

Huge thank you to @04gto for the tip - check out the thread if you have the clatter.
Also installed my extended sway bar links from TrailTailor - was debating having a friend extend my originals but didn't want to drive around for a week without, then looked at buying OEM so he could modify those but that was $55, so @reevesci 's links at $80 were a great deal:

I like those. That's a great idea.
View attachment 1489430 Installed trailer brake so I can pull my Colman E3 to HIH in a few weeks.
Sparked my curiosity - why?Removed the integrated bumper hitch and installed a Land Cruiser hitch.
Sparked my curiosity - why?
Thanks, had no idea.So I can use my bike rack. The spare tire is in the way with the integrated hitch.
