What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

[Flamewave]

Getting my replacement tires put on. Also my front sway bar link fell off last night so I had to deal with that.

A little shopping.

Today was a light trail ride to test Rover as I get ready for the season! Went up Forest Service trail 9500762 (in the NW1 Colville National Forest Map) and ran into snow at 3300ft and again deeper snow at 3636ft where I had to engage L/R to crawl through! Took and stopped at a flowery plateau at 3870ft where I can see all the way to Idaho before descending back down trail 9500755 and returning to home off road 9565080. Still find snow at 4K ft too deep without chains and winch but I keep testing

That's a long haul! Looks like your missile launcher tube is still intact so assuming you did not have to launch :) Hahahaha

Installed a Rugged Ridge trailer hitch receiver last night with my son; installed the wiring harness this morning. Need to wait for _someone_ to get out of bed to come help make sure the (simple) wiring is doing what it should.

Nope not yet figured there’s plenty of missles stockpiled in the plains of Kansas and Nebraska lol

Installed the additional rear suspension to have a better and safer ride while fully loaded

Finished up the DIY utility rails on the bed wall. It worked out really well once I had everything figured out and bought the tools needed to complete the install.

Finished product.

JKU third brakelight deleted today - finally! Have had a Rugged Ridge LED ring mounted behind spare for a while but finally got around to taking off the tire carrier, chopping off the third brake light and painting it today. I really disliked Jeep's third brake light.

Installed Vector mount, organized all the small things that were being shoved under the seats and finally got my Teraflex tailgate table.

I installed the same tailgate table last weekend. First holes drilled in the Jeep. Nice work, looks good!

Unfortunately my truck is at the dealership having a new EGR cooler installed after a failure.

On the bright side I enjoy see everybody else's work.

So @Magic Mike helped me install a Diff Breather in the 4Runner today. Well actually I assisted him while he did most of the work. Thank you sir.

I tried to replace my rear brake pads with Powerstop Z23 pads in an effort to get rid of the squeak when driving over rough surfaces. Everything was going great until the last caliper bolt decided to break off inside the slide pin. You know that feeling....

I was all set to try and drill out the broken bolt but I lucked out and when the drill bit finally caught it unscrewed the bolt slightly. Seriously? Did I just get off that easy? Indeed I did. I backed the broken bolt out with my fingers but not before a few curse words had been uttered.

My wife and kid were ready to hit the trail on mountain bikes and this quick job is now screwing with our plans. To make matters worse the truck is parked half way inside the garage with a jack under the rear diff. I need to get the truck outside of the garage so I can close the door but I can't drive it or risk applying the brakes without the caliper bolted in place. *scratches head* Ahh hah!

Now I can put the wheel back on and push the truck out of the garage, gently. Then chock the front wheels so it doesn't roll down our hill. :)

The dealership was closed and Reibes didn't have even a listing of brake parts for our trucks. In desperation I tried ACE hardware but these are hard to find bolts! A call to O'Reilly turned up a bolt and slide pin for $11 and in stock! Turns out while the parts will work they are pretty janky and very lightweight compared to the OEM parts. Hmmm well this will at least get me to the dealership on Monday so I can get the OEM bolt.
