Spent most of the day at the 4x4 shop today. Got my lower control arm mounts welded back on. Got a front end aliment and changed my air filter. Then hung out at the shop. Getting her ready for next weeks Beasly's **** ride.

Patched rust holes in the rear, took off the scrap passenger side door and replaced it with a really nice used one I picked up for $50.00

Finally herculined my floor.... and ripped out my dash to replace my heater core and blend door while I was in there taking stuff out. PITA!

I'm about to go back in the shop to put the seats back in....

I'm going to change out the PO's 160 t-stat for the OEM 192 this evening. I've got one of the few that runs too cold, even down here in the heat.

went up this ledge last night (sorry for the dark photos will have day time photos come friday) the ledge was as tall as my high beams and it took some crafty skinny pedal work to get al the way over(not pictured)

and here is some of the river bed with ledges maybe 15" or so

rebuilt the carburator on my 85, got it running nice, fixed some unneeded wires..i call them unneed because i dont know what they were for and it still runs good. then proceeded to take a test ride and ended up breaking the shift linkage somewhere

Done. And I'm surprised at how accurate the temp gauge actually is. I had estimated the existing stat was a 160 based on needle position and it certainly was. The new 195 runs exactly where it should as well.
