Added plastic chicken coup flooring panels. Not working out very well, chickens are blowing off...at about 40 mph.

I need to add flooring to my lr3 rack I keep not paying attention and stand on the glass roof panel.

One of these days my fat *** is going to fall through...

The flooring looks good and makes for a nice finished look to your rack

 

Bumper and brush guard on, winch and lights need some wiring done.






Big Thank You to Armyrover (and his dad) for getting this to me. Makes quite a difference in appearance, and it will be nice to have a winch again. Surprising, how much l used it...even around the house.

Looks great glad it all worked out and you were happy with it

 

Ended up just welding the bottom captive nut plates (originals) to the lower bumper bracket...made install a lot easier. Removed those stupid rubber frame plugs too. I'm like...this is retarded...water, mud and dirt can enter the frame rail through the opening for lower bumper bracket...and they, in their infinite wisdom, plug the hole that would let it rinse out naturally. And they wonder why their frames rot out so quickly. Dug so much rust, mud and crud out of there it was unreal.

l'm going to add a couple bolts to the brush guard, towards the front...to give it more support.

Nope, couldn't be any happier with the bumper or exchange. Thank you!

Brian.

 

She looks proper now Brian.

 

Replaced output shaft seal/yoke on transfer case...so a test drive was in order.


Added another 350 miles to the odometer, the little diesel just rattled them off with ease. She is a torquey little thing, especially in low lock.



Fun day, for sure. And all photo credit goes to my wife.

Brian.

 

Looks great!

What size are the lights mounted on the bumper? Those 6 inchers?

 

Yes. The ones on light bar are 4". Going to get four more 6" and replace the four center ones on light bar...well, as soon as l win the lottery that is...lol.

Tire mounted on backdoor.




​​Racks off, and Victoria's in the garage now for a bit of repairs, blew a C/V joint apart...so front axle is getting the business, new seals, C/V joints and such...it's all apart...just waiting for parts now. Will be tackling a few other items while its in there. Duel battery setup, finish wiring winch, new exterior door handles and tumblers, install 1" lift spacers, wire up front brush guard lights. Have a couple small fuel leak issues l'd like to correct also. Engine is one hundred percent free from oil leaks...after valve cover gasket and o-ring on cooler line...clean as a whistle. Transfer case still has one very minor leak, from somewhere between trans and transfer case. New output shaft seal and yoke took care of the majority though...so l can probably live with the minor leak...plus, it somewhat of a tradition that they leak somewhere...lol.
