Installed a pair of fog lights I had ordered a few months ago. Wanted to paint the brackets after I welded them on, but found out I was all out of my favorite black spray paint and primer. Didn't feel like (too cheap and lazy) going to parts store for paint. So I got out a disposable brush and a gallon can of black Rustoleum and did the whole bumper ( while installed. Did I mention being lazy?) So it would all look equally hideous.

Also picked up a chunk of T6061 aluminum bar stock to make some receiver hitch anchor points. I currently carry a whole steel draw bar with a giant D shackle on it that is big, bulky and heavy. I saw these other things at the overlanding challenge in March and wasn't willing to pay $80 for one. I got enough aluminum to make 2 for about $59.

Where did you get that front bumper, it would be a great match for my rear bumper.

Craigslist. It's from a Jeep. I made my own mounting brackets, strengthened the bottom and added the hitch receiver.

I put the Chinesium radiator in my 2001 only to find out that it leaks.

How Dirtman feels when making his snappy comments about other people's misfortune.

Cleaned the new seats and the floor. Need to pull the headliner and do something with that saggy thing. Probably super glue a rebel flag to it so i can get Dirtmans approval.

Took my 94 to my mechanic for a alignment / brake check, had a new Ford fuel filter and new skyjacker front brake lines installed.

Recently drove back from big bear from a two week stay at my friend's place after he purchased my 96 3.0 package. While I was there I assisted him tearing down the engine and transmission as he preps them for a rebuild. Did some hiking and went to the lake for some time to myself... constantly have had my sweet Rebecca on my mind. I have been lost without her. Will do a oil change soon.

Pulled my new seats last night and deep cleaned them. Used tuff stuff, scrubbed with a nylon brush in my drill, and steam cleaned afterwards. Turned out better than I expected

Even the console cleaned up good and that thing was straight up nasty.

Hauled a load of grass to the compost site. Dog approves of the new clean seats

It’s amazing how much nasty crap you pull out of vehicle seats, no? I’m always amazed.
