Damn.

Today I was supposed to get my rock lights mounted which would leave tomorrow open to go through and do a maintenance check, lube, go to the store and pack. I came down with a bug or something, got the shits all day, and have next to no energy.

Hopefully by tomorrow I'll be back to normal because I have a busy day ahead of me.
 
Progress!

Made a little progress:

- Install new Radiator Fan
:thumbup: Install Front Driveshaft
:thumbup: Verify Clearance on new wheels
:thumbup: Remove front sway bar
- Re-Torque All Bolts on Driveline
- Hunt down annoying squeak and rattle
- Re-install Glove Box and Center Console
- Mount Hi-Lift Jack and Fire Extinguisher
- Mount Spare tire to spare wheel

Why does it always take me until the last day to get this stuff done?
 
heh heh. didn't catch your joke :p you got me! I think less beer iss the torque spec... wait, did I just say that? I mean more
 
Thankfully I felt about 90% better this morning so I got alot done. Rock lights are installed. I got lucky and tied into the wiring I had from my old lights so that saved a lot of time not having to mess with the switch.

I still have to pack and go to the store but its all downhill from here. See you guys at Strawberry in the morning.
 
I cannot believe how much I actually got done in the last two days and I only worked for a couple hours each day. It's amazing how much faster it goes when you have done it before :)

Installed Front Bumper and Winch
Installed CB
Installed ARB Compressor and Switches

Still Need To Do:
Alignment
Check suspesion nuts & bolts
Add more Fluid to the Front Diff

The Rock Rails will not be installed :-( I cannot find Self Tapper Bolts anywhere.........
