update time: added 4* shims to the leaf packs, also changed the oil and broke the oil pressure sensor in the process. ooops



found a home brew roof rack on craigslist, got it for a deal. 4 light tabs on front, 2 on the rear, cb mount, tire mount, shovel and axe on one side, hi-lift on the other.

went out with a group after a big rain and got real muddy


you can see the hi lift and stuff

took a few hours with a pressure washer
