Left it in the garage and went to work in the Prius. Hee hee.

Plans for the weekend include:
- fix wiring to driver side fog light.
- try to diagnose noise in driveline (could be transfer case, rear diff, or ?)
- try to remove fill plug for front diff and if successful, change front diff oil.
- wash it!
 
Sitting in the garage doing the deck plate mod. Prob not really worth it, but something to do since theres no work today.
 
Pulled my front pads of my brakes, applied anti-squeal, and greases the pins/contact points.

GREASED MY BRAKES!!!
Don't worry, I have been a mechanic for a long time and yes there are a few spots that do need grease (lightly) on brakes to allow them to work freely.

I do this every time I rotate my tires, which coincidentally is every time I change my oil....a good practice to follow.
 
Packed it full of all my snowboarding gear and everything else I need to live in a ski town all winter :D

Leaving in a few hours..
 
drove it to work and removed center console and unsoldered old orange led out of defrost button and resoldered new white led in place.

Just packed mine up for a weekend in the mountains with the dogs.

REALLY wish I could do it all winter. Unfortunately... I'd come home without a job, and without a wife. :whipping2
 
Drove it to work and listened to intermittent squealing from my front brakes. Looks like I'll be investigating this over the weekend... May be time for the 231mm upgrade...although my wallet isn't quite ready. :(
 
Tundra brake upgrade. Front LBJ bolt extraction in process.

Got dealer to sell me everything at shop prices from now on.
 
Pulled a 19ft boat to go fishing with a friend; managed to hook three redfish, but threw them all back.

Put gas in it also. Averaged 18.5 miles per gallon for the last tank.
