I cut off my airdam and the bottoms of my bumper corners with a grinder and cut off wheel. Gained about 6" of clearance. Also ground off rust on both bumpers and painted with rattle can.

Replaced front pinion seal and both transfer case seals since they were leaking. It was a PITA to find a store that had the seals and to match them up. I had to go to 4 different stores to get the 3 seals.

Replaced the radiator with a three core unit from The Radiator Barn and put in a fan clutch while I had it apart. Now all of the cooling system is new or recently replaced.

Went to my father-in-law's place today and used his cutoff wheel to grind down the bead that some idiot welded on to the inside edge of my hitch's receiver tube (hitch was 40 bucks from the JY)... everythin's fitting good now and I'm all ready to tow the boat!

Did lots of measurements and cad drawings for some soon to come upgrades. Including roof rack. Also re-adjusted headlights and drilled out broken screws a previous owner left.
