Pounded Leroy through the mud at the drillsite. Too dark to get pics now. Finally got my lazy rear under it and hooked the 4X4 linkage back up before playing too much.

Drew on the rear dirt where I'm thinking about doing a comp cut and stretching the rear and thought about how I'm going to fix the control arm mount and when I'm going to start on the long arms.

rolled over 300k on the odometer, so I'm guessing about 315k on the motor. Still running good on 5 cylinders!
