Got some t6, and some stuff to make new battery cables.

Also fixed my pinion seal, and did a driveway alignment.

Started to install a floor mat in the cargo rear seat area. The po removed the carpet and herculined the floor. I like the bedliner floor for ease of cleaning but I don't like the added noise. So I thought I would try using a mat designed to go in horse stalls. It's rubber and about 3/4 of an inch think. You can get them from tractor supply, agri supply, the big blue store, pretty much any farm supply store with equine supplies. Here is a link to tractor supply where I got mine http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/stor...at-4-ft-x-6-ft

Out with the old, in with the older! Took more time than I thought it would.....only because it's a bit tedious coming back up through the harness to get the wiring & washer fluid lines out. After trimming the fenders, we were running without a washer reservoir for a couple months. With flakes starting to fly, it was time.

New starter and 2awg wire and ends. Along with some hacked up jacked up bolts on the starter that the PO used. When I found those, I was beyond PO'd!!!! Anyhow, the new cables and starter really made a difference.

Bring on the cold months!!!

My gf said the same thing about the soft 8s looking better, which I never imagined honestly. But I'm thinking about saving up when these new tires eventually wear down and order a whole new wheel set, love the turbines though.

You can have the wheels, I will take the tires, and we can split the cost of getting them up here. Just send them to me first and I will pull the tires off the wheels then deliver the wheels to you
