Went a got all my brake parts at NAPA yesterday, thought it was a little spendy. When I got to the office this morning I checked online and the gal charged me $51.52 more for all my parts....going in to raise hell today. This Saturday I change rotors, calipers, pads, shoes and hardware. My first brake job on any vehicle. Fingers crossed it goes smooth!!
Actually, i do need to replace my bent auto adjuster...

I think the mounting holes were designed around Warn winches.

I also had to make a bracket to rotate the solenoid box 90 degrees to keep from having to cut the grill. I may still mount it under the hood someday. (Not that JCR had anything to do with the solenoid fitting issues. They can't accomodate every different setup)

Me too. I had to cut part of the top 90* fold off the front piece where the drum is (that's the widest part of the winch) to get the winch to line up. If I had moved it back and drilled new holes, I think it would have interfered with the grill.

Junkyard headliner with bonus rear speakers and upgraded center overhead light. The headliner had a few stains so the areas of discoloration are where I cleaned them and they have not dried yet. Junkyard rear window assemblies, driver's and passenger rear. I have power at the motors so I know the current assemblies are bad.

Anyway today I got the last few parts I need to get my air system at least ready for winter (good enough to fill tires after 8-12 psi snow wheeling)
What is the right tool for this? I helped a friend do brakes and he wedged a hammer claw between the rotor surface and the caliper. That seemed totally "wrong".
got my yakima roof basket extension in last night. figured i would put it on before work. this weekend i will repaint it with bedliner and move my cross supports more to the center. but, all in all, i thinks its going to work out better then i thought.
