Started the day by removing the intake and exhaust so I could weld up the crack in my manifold. Got that welded and figured that now would be a super time to replace the leaking valve cover gasket. Then reinstalled the repaired exhaust and the intake with a new gasket.

Sat down with an assortment of drill bits, a center punch, a power drill, a 17mm socket/ratchet, a hammer and a can of Sprite. I didn't get up until the other side of holes were done for my RC crossmember. My leg fell asleep and I bent the 25/32" drill bit on the last hole because it caught the last little bit of metal. It's done though.

The back up that jeep looks surprisingly comfortable to camp in.

I ended up adding some brake fluid, noticed it was pretty low, plus I am leaking a little out by the driver side rear drum. I am assuming the heat is killing it but I will get that checked out next week. Also noticed I am low on coolant, so that is tomorrows task.
