Seem to have fixed the belt squeal. 3rd new idler pulley and tightened the belt some more. Now on to changing the o-ring on the oil adapter housing.

Went to swap out red LEDs for white ones on my dash and center console. Realized I ordered just LEDs for the console. Then found out the ones I ordered were too big to fit in the spot for bulbs. Found 2 white LEDs that were sent to me by mistake when I ordered the red ones. Those fit perfect. I'm sending the white ones I ordered recently back.

Made my rear tail pipe mount fit better and bent the gas tank heat shield a little bit for more clearance.

Then I realized I didn't reattach the parking brake cable to the diff housing from almost two years ago when I changed the diff fluid. So I put that back on. Might take care of a rattle or two.

Your Renix flywheel wouldn't fit? I very much doubt the CPSes are compatible...

Replaced my oil filter adapter o-ring and stopped that leak. After reading up on the forums, I must say I was a little worried but I got it out and in very quickly.

I've had them for over 20k miles and they still have decent tread. I certainly got my $575 out of them.
That's cool... so the treadwear on the street is decent?

Nice.... looks pretty good. Did you fold at all or just cut the metal off?

Bass, they wear pretty good on the street. But keep in mind I rotate every oil change and monitor my air pressure.

The only M/T I've had that was better on the street was some Les Schaub- Dean M/T's that I put over 45k miles on.

Added some 31's last week on a stock suspension. It rubs everywhere! Lol. I need to find time to install my lift.

Trim those fenders and you could probably pull that off without a lift
