Jealous of your mpg. Mines a 4.0 so I never expect to see 28 mpg. And it will go down once I start lifting it and tires.

New recovery points and got some various hardware for future installs. Disco's may be this week if I can get some new bushings.

Ripped out soggy muddy carpet. And what a surprise. Found holes in the floor board the P.O. "forgot to mention" then Gabe her a quick bath to get most of the mud off. And aired up her shocks.

Yeah, I made the mistake of buying mine after looking at it around dusk. Its pretty solid and straight, but a couple spots are a bit worse than I thought. Nothing a lil love can't take care of.

Took the doors off for the first time this year, pulled the front swaybar, then did some wheeling before a bonfire. Wound up rescuing a ranger and trying to get it to run after it sucked a half gallon of water into the engine.

Stock height, trimmed fenders, 31" tires.

Took some close ups of the texture of Monstaliner. Its a good texture and its not very rough. I'm going to let it cure for a few days then put everything back in.
