Used my jeep to pull my moms blazer out of her ice covered driveway.

Insulated the roof, reinstalled the headliner, replaced my idle air control valve, and finished wiring in the new dome light. Not bad and it's only 10:40

That 3m double sided stuff is nasty. My heat gun wasn't hot enough so I just used my finger to rub all of it off. Definitely got a blister from it.

I left my fingerprints and palm prints on the exhaust one time I slipped and just grabed the exhaust manifold...

Upgraded bumpers today to a winch bumper. Only problem is two bolts to my steering box broke of in the spacer so she's out of the game for a bit. Anybody ever done a Durango box swap?

Make sure reservoir is full. Bleed in order as needed and know that the new rotors and pads need to break in. So it'll feel squishy at first.
