Swapped the KM2s and steelies back for the road wheels and and replaced the hood struts with a set from CruiserYard. While I was back in the States the wife got it washed, waxed and buffed and waxed somemore.

Was out of town with family visiting folks when all hell broke loose in Benghazi.....again. So stuck outa town, I've had lots of time on my hand to catch up on some essentials. Resealed leaky front windscreen, had the radiator dismantled and manually cleaned, new bearings, seals, and repack of the front knuckle, new rotors caliper and pads, new extra battery, new double piston air compressor, changed belt idler bearing, fixed driver side manual locking hub, The clutch started acting up before yesterday, so I'll probably change the clutch slave cylinder as I should have when I replaced the master several weeks ago.
Put new windshield wipers on, Trico Winter Blades, these are what I use on my FJ as well with great success. Wipers123.com has great prices and fast shipping.
Finally washed it... Okay, I took it through a car wash.

Had an engine sputter and CEL. All the shops and mechanics in this town are stubborn guardians of diagnostic tools, and there is no Autozone. I tried the spark plugs first, then later borrowed a reader and replaced a coil pack and it's all good.
I need to get my own OBD2 reader.
Also, I paid 92 bucks for the coil pack to get it in hand immediately.

get a scanguage - you get realtime stats for MPG, Temps, etc and Code Reading.
Hahaha.. Just an AK47. They sell RPGs and all sorts weapons right next to the vegetable market here. I'm not a revolutionary, nor do I get involved in politics. I didn't get involved in Libya's civil war, nor any fighting that's ever took place. I just keep it to protect my family and I. But to be honest, I doubt owning an AK47 around here will provide that much protection, with all the heavier weapons and militias around. The best bet would be to freakin leave this country. By the way the Land Cruiser here is the car of choice for carjackers, for its high reliability in the excruciating Sahara desert. Probably the only downside to this cars awesomeness and reliability.
Did the other side knuckle rebuild, rotor, and pads last night. Way more quicker and confident than my first go at it on the other wheel.
Stay safe.

Got the bumper from BIOR put on by my local shop. It looks great and Mike did a fantastic job on this build!

Thanks, I sure will, I've got two boys counting on me.
I took off the running boards. I had been planning on doing it for some time, but finally did so. Now that I live in East Tennessee full time, it made far more sense to do so.
Now comes sliders and front bumper. Not lacking for inspiration around here. There are just some absurd vehicle builds around here.

Upgraded all the speakers with Focals. Sounds a lot better.
Changed the fuel filter, then drove into the middle of the woods to see what I could find. I found trees.
No doubt. Which series? I had 165K2 PolyKevlar's components in a previous car and they are astonishingly good. My brother has a silly expensive pair of their home speakers (1038BE's) and they are rad as well.
