minus 12 celsius this morning (5 degree F), blower pooched out last night, a cold 2 hour drive this morning, 2hrs new blower motor is in this evening after work, best ride home ever, 1st time my feet were actually warm. I have a fresh heater core in the box just in case but that is a real job so will wait till needed. New blower is great. Temp is still about minus 10 to 14.

Thumbs up

Replaced the transfer case in the 95. Wanted to like when I found out how much new cost. Junk yard was still $250 bones but got it in and she's quiet again! Look at my pics and you will see why it needed to be replaced! Haha

Easy

Took it wheeling to help a friend that got his Chevy truck pretty stuck. He had no winch and his come-along just couldn't do it. Took me 45min of off road riding to get to him and 5min to pull him out with the trusty 8'000lbs winch. I then drove thew the hole and got threw it but it wasn't easy it was pretty frozen. He tried it again and got stuck in the same spot.(After I broke up all the ice) Once again I pulled out his Chevy.

4 hours of trail riding and only damage was I pulled the rear passenger side of the bumper loose. No big deal a few new screws and it will be back on.

Today I pulled what remained of the exhaust system after the cat off... to be eventually replaced with straight pipe where the muffler was.
