Did a few things, Changed the rear diff fluid and used 85/140. Cleaned out the breather fittings on both diffs (lost of gunk). Bought 1/8 poly tubing from Lowe's and ran line from both diffs up to the top of the bulkhead. Took apart the driver side front door and adjusted the lock so now I can open the door again. Riveted the little metal clip that holds the inside door handle to the metal part of the door (now I have an ohhh S*** handle that works properly). And tomorrow is another day. Steak and beer I believe is in order for tonight!

Default My son and I took out the disco to play in the rain

My son and I took out the disco to play in the rain. Nothing too extreme. Just enough to make sure everything's working like it should.

Eased back the windshield trim and filled from corner out about 8 inches on passenger side that had been leaking into the head liner. You can clamp the corner down with a glue clamp from inside the truck around the A pillar with door propped open. Black RTV is messy, wear gloves.

Default Wheels and rack

I put about 6 coats of flat black Plasti Dip on the wheels and finally got the mounts in for the full length Safety Devices roof rack from the UK! Wheels turned out pretty sick and the $200 in mounts from SD were worth every penny!

Replaced my fog light bulb and lost one of the screws. Went to the hardware store to pick up a replacement only to find it was to thick.

Got a vibration in the front end on my way home from work, jack up each wheel, wheel bearings are loose.
She's parked for tomorrow, driving the wifes van to work, then I need to tackle my girl.
Could not have happened at a worse time, we just bought a house and are taking a trailer load a day over to the new house, was going to hit the lumber yard and the Habitat for Humanity store on Sat morning, not now.
