Well I got the CARRS4x4 door latch pin installed (fantastic product!!! Perfection and it's a shame it gets hidden inside the door lol), and I also replaced the drivers door latch and ignition switch on the 99 D2 as the door was not keyed alike to the ignition. They're paired together and working however I forgot how small the OEM security bolt heads were so I didn't buy replacement allen head bolts vs normal bolts. I can't install the passenger side bolt as it hits the welded on plate. I'll finish it up tomorrow with 2 new allen head bolts and call it a day. I've already programmed the new Key Fob remote as well. Now I won't have to ever worry about the 99's alarm every doing that crazy thing it did only once at the airport at 1:30AM leaving me scratching my head when it wouldn't disarm (also found to my surprise the drivers door latch was not keyed the same as the ignition...). Although my quick fix for the issue was to tap on the glass to set the interior sensors off and then the key fob worked. Just took me an hour out in the airport parking lot in the rain to figure it out lol, but NEVER again will I hopefully have that issue again.

Also just a heads up I indeed changed my Avatar yet again lol. I feel old Clint Eastwood from the awesome Spaghetti Westerns is a better fit for my character lol.

Truth

I mowed, washed waxed cleaned the interior of the excursion, fixed a microwave, replaced a lawn sprinkler. And unwrapped a thoughtful gift from my daughter

I installed a 2" Terrafirma lift kit on Saturday, and cooked BBQ ribs and corn bread on Sunday. To top it off, my kids made me a pineapple upside-down cake and Fathers' Day cards.
Other than my sore muscles, I have no complaints
