....and for my most favorite mod of the moment I nominate changing the steel cap lugs to solid steel lugs.

It took two grown men, a breaker bar, various sized sockets and an eight foot pipe to change over the lugs. If I got a flat on the side of the road instead of in my driveway I'd be #$%*#. Really it should be part of the 60K or whatever maintenance program. Oh and no more rattling.

Kinda like my level-o-meter too. Bummed AB had to stamp their phone number and name on it tho. Drove sideways along a dune to test its performance.

<<Couldnt get the video to load which shows how much the old ones rattled and how solid the new ones are so I posted the tree chicken I encountered on my once a decade golf game. It's a family site so I didn't post the pic of the hottie attendant that helped me find my beers>>

thats because he has a camera that was invented in 1994 its a sony mavica and it uses tiny cd's for memory. he can't get new cd's because sony stopped supporting that camera in the third quarter of 1994 and even though a new digital camera could be had for like 75$ with WAY better resolution than his digital mavica which is the equivalent of a shoulder mount VHS video recorder (certainly in size) he muddles on with his search for coaster sized cd's to take more pictrues.

Danny, get a new camera

I have a mod planned in the future...I want to add a .50cal metal ammo can to the engine compartment with the heater hoses running through the bottom of it to act as a small microwave/oven to heat food for me when on the trails or long trips.
