Just different times of day, and I took off the lame wheel covers. Call it what you want, as long as I am not climbing DOWN into it I am happy.

It's mood paint, it gets lighter when you are happy and darker when you are hot as fk and sick of spending the last 6 hours wrenching.

Believe it or not, I broke zero bolts. It was honestly like working on a new truck, so clean underneath! Coming from Minnesota it was a real treat not having to cut, grind or torch anything. Everything got neversiezed so when I am ready for a long arm setup it will hopefully come apart just as easy.

Default Feeling better now.

Had a little time before breakfast. Thought I might throw a new floor into the jeep. Can put the seats back in after lunch. Before and After.
Many thanks to my Buddy Jim for some late nights, CTS for materials, shear and brake, Janes Welding for keeping me gassed and wired, and most thanks to my wife for food, beverage, good company and tolerance in giving up her garage parking for a month. (I owe her a bathroom makeover).

Calm down, Busted Knuckles

I was itchin for the skinny after a 12 hour night shift. I hit a nice long gravel road on the way home from work this morning, lost a fight with a tree in reverse (hatch still opens!), got my drift on, and went airborne thrice. Came down hard once (left front landed in a hole) and when I came home, I put on my last spare. ****....
