Today I had to admit defeat on one of the rear window channels haha. I ordered another one.

Installed 3rd row about 85%. Figured while I was back there, diagnose the rear wiper motor.

Got title and registration/insurance done finally, so going to start daily driving it to find out any issues. MIL came back on, so going to pull codes and see what that is. Airbag light also on. But so far no amigos but maybe just have to drive it more haha.

I'm finding a lot of little clues that at least one past owner of this truck loved it and was trying to maintain it well, as well as evidence of a lot of weird abuse on the interior, as seen in photos.

Headliner fabric was removed and headliner backboard was plastidip sprayed. I kind of like the look, and it's less work for me to try to do anything else. While I have the rear trim off I'm going to check out the sunroof drains.

I like the diode dynamics SS3, if you call them they should be able to help with a mounting adapter for your size hole.

I've always been a huge fan of the Baja Designs Squadron R lights. I have four on my Colorado and will be putting them in my front bumper when I install it.

Finally installed my Alisport radiator and changed my tcase fluid. Going to do my trans and filter fluid next but need to figure out why my fan shroud isn't sitting right can causing some weird temps at low speeds. Might just be air in the system still but will keep bleeding to see if I can get anymore air out.

Tried to program a remote with my HawkEye. Used the Excel sheet to convert the code on the sticker inside the plip to the longer codes. All looks good. Push the button and... immobilised!
Grrr. Now I have to resolve that situation before I can try programming the fob again.

Rover Rondezvous this weekend. I took mostly dash cam footage. This pick was the air up at the end of the exit trail. I had a good time. Since I didnt have a camp site, and was staying in a hotel I spent most of my time soloing back roads and spurs looking for camp sights.
In serendipitous event, unrelated to RR, I saw a some deer accross from a camp and stopped to a fellow there (no bucks but still nice to sit and watch). It was non other than @YETIX

Loaded up and dropped off the Disco at Low Price Auto Glass for a new windshield and installation of my new-to-me alpine windows. Trying to get it ready for the Hill Country Rover Rally in Spicewood, TX the weekend of October 13th. Who knew you could just roll these back over after they are on their side and just drive away! I managed to repair and clear all the warning dash lights with the exception of an SRS light. Scanner says LH circuit open or something like that. I thought SRS was the air bags. Anyone know where I should start looking? Thanks!
