After the international embarrassment of the Dolphins loss to the jets in London this morning, I decided to change the plugs and wires that were over due. She's running great again, wish I could say the same for the Dolphins.
 
I hate getting that dirty. So much work.

I considered having the local car wash place do it for me lol. It was a fun late night trip, got stuck in sugar sand every 20 feet but once out in the wet sand and mud it did fine.

But next Saturday is gonna be a few hours of cleaning.:brushteeth:
 
That's different mud than what I'm used to here in Alabama. We've got this nasty clumpy clay stuff that just cakes the fender liners, but comes off pretty easy down at the pay and spray haha. This weekend I had so much mud caked in there my tires were rubbing pulling in and out of the driveway. I'll see if any of my pics came out decent.

I ordered the stuff to add reverse lights to my rack as well as make my own harness for them. If I like the lights I'll be adding one to each side for perimeter lighting as well. The stuff is pilling up for me to do. Speakers, amp, blue sea fuse box, breakers, big 3, reverse lights, sound deadening, clear bra for under the fairing, and tie rods are all sitting here in boxes waiting to go on.





The sliders did a great job keeping the crap off the paint as well. Very happy about that.

I rotated my drive shaft 180 degrees to eliminate a slight vibration that started after taking it to a shop. VIBRATION GONE :) Apparently it was out of phase when they reattached the drive shaft to the third member.
 
messed around in the rain :clap2:

Only code my runner has ever thrown was a P120, Throttle Position Sensor and that has happenned three times in the year that I have owned it. So I finally replaced the TPS, cleaned the MAF and the throttle body/ they both were pretty dirt, the TB was really dirty, almost like it had never been done, a lot of carbon around the rim on the valve so I got in there with a brush and got it cleaned up along with the IAC. Hoping no more codes!
 
Progress

Ordered my transcooler today, got a quote to rhinoline my rola roof rack, and added a little flare to my mudflaps. Used a touchup bottle of paint I had left from my paintjob last year. I don't think its too obnoxious.

(Crocodile Dundee voice) Mud, that's not mud. This is mud!

Installed some Fresh California Mud... Yeah, it actually rained here...

Hit Ellis Peak, found the Rubicon (got a bit of it under my belt, but not the full thing).... Ellis Peak, Ellis Lake, Miller Lake, Lily Lake, McKinley Lake, all really cool spots.

Took it in for an alignment, only for them to find both my rear axle seals are leaking [emoji20] that does explain the poor braking of late though. Drums are covered in fluid. Waiting on quote. Not something I am interested in doing myself.
 
Took it for a spin and quite lazy to get the mud and dirt off it for now...

and palning on buying a welder to fix my side steps that are damage since a side collision
 
I didn't do anything to it today but something did happen to it.
