Got the tub area primed and ready for the bed liner. Amazing how crusty it was

with that dry I did a spray in dupli-color bed liner nothing fancy but fairly durable and easy to find for touch ups as needed

all in all nothing fancy all budget minded and makes everything just a bit nicer

Got the doors all cleaned and painted up under the door panels. They were in surprisingly good shape, I was really happy to find that. So of course to make my Chelsea tractor a bit more civilized I ordered only the finest of sound mat

I was impressed it’s actually pretty good sound mat and has a very distinctive look😂

overall it will likely make little difference in the noise levels inside but if I can hear the radio I’ll call it a win

Another fun project is getting the valve covers refreshed and resealed. Also gave me a chance to see what the valve train was looking like. I was very pleased with what I found.

"quality filter and frequent oil changes for the win!"

So obvious yet so often forgotten.

Alright sorry I missed the update yesterday but being a training technician has some early mornings and long days





but of course things have been moving along as you may have noticed for those that are following along on instagram

frame repairs are on going and I had been shying away from this one a bit since I have to replace the sway bar mount, bump stop and the spring perch to be honest it was unnerving chopping that stuff off the frame. Here we are so let’s get it done

Ok so keeping moving here with the frame and suspension repairs. Aside from the metal parts from the awesome folks at YRM I need to get 4 new shocks all the terrafirmas were completely spent. Love to hear what you guys are running and how you like them

I am definitely not a professional welder but I’m getting better with the hot metal glue gun
