brian,
glad to hear. That was the company I couldn't think of and was leaning towards.

Picked up an ARB bumper, never installed but technically used, with 4 led offroad lights on trade for 500 plus my old cracked bumper

01, oil change and filled washer fluid...if repairs stay in this category...she can stay around as long as she wants.

Oh, also tinkered more with the winch mounting plate, tacked in place, turned out better than I hoped and now the waiting game begins...for money for a winch...hint, hint...for anyone willing to donate...lol. Up-graded the bumper bolts from 3/8's to 1/2 inch grade 8. Will add a few more brackets/mounts onto the winch plate, when the winch comes available.

Brian.

Jeff, could you please try being a little less ambitious...you're giving the rest of us a complex...lol.

Also, we use that channel at work and have several types of straps that are obsolete for our needs. We have binds and binds of them that will never see daylight again. If you are interested, I'll gather up a few different styles and snap some pictures...you might be able to use them. Some are ratcheting and stuff like that.

Brian.

Haha, but trust me, I'm making my pocketbook look much worse. I thought this floor would be one of the cheaper projects, definitely not!

Brian - yes I'm interested. I have a fetish for storage stuff. Duffel bags, boxes, tie downs, nets, straps, bungees.. I can't get enough

Had mine shipped to my new home in Florida after having the head gaskets done along with timing chain, oil pump,water pump, etc...replaced my diff drain plugs with brass ones, added an extra inch to the rear to level her out, installed stainless brake lines and did a complete bleeding. Long, productive day...

Default ^^^^^very nice!

This morning...

Replaced belt tensioner, lubed idler pulleys and replaced rear shocks (oh what a difference) on 01.

Replaced belt tensioner, idler pulleys and water pump (which l should have replaced before dropping the engine in...but oh well) on 03.

Jeff, I'll get some stuff together Monday.

Brian.
