Just bought some clear signals and side markers. Also bought some black taillight covers. Just some little additions but so excited for them to come in the mail!

After debating for a few days and then having a good day at work, I dropped the $179.10 for an AA HD SYE for my NP231. Been wanting one since last year.

Advanced Adapters website. They had a Black Friday special going on which was 10% off select products AND free shipping.

Indeed it is, especially considering that IMO they make the best SYE on the market for an NP231J

I pulled the valve cover and cleaned the reed, made sure the vacuum port was clear and replaced the valve cover gasket.

Not much to tell really.
Wish I had the $$$ for a new set of 31x10.50's.

I just got the exact same deal the other day. I waited and waited, so when I saw that they were having a black friday deal I jumped on it too.

I put a new power steering hose on the pump. What a b. I ended up cutting a wrench off and made it shorter. It was the only way I could get my fat arm and a wrench in there to turn. Bright side now I have a custom wrench.

Passed out before I could post yesterday so here was yesterdays antics.
Finally installed the D44 out back, cleaned, checked, sealed, and painted. Wanted to make new shackles, but my hitch didn't want to cooperate, and I don't have the torches ready, so the blocks stay in for a while longer .
Fixed the broken exhaust the garbage welder at work couldn't handle. Who would have thought my home welder works better.
Finally got around to finishing my cut and fold on the quarter panels. Been meaning to do that for a couple years now.
Removed the front bumper to fix the damage from a tree hit early this year. Cleaned welded, and painted, bumper is now back to being more than just an ugly ornament, haha.
Doesn't sound like much but it was enough to keep me busy for the day.

Attempted to do an oil change on my 98, but it turns out im missing my 16 MM wrench and wound up almost rounding the bolt head and the weather dropped low so I had to stop. Dont ever let someone touch your tools unless they put it back.
