Thanks for the offer!Well, if you don't manage that, I've got a new/spare passenger shell with slight damage. Make very special price for you, my friend...
What did you do to your TJ today?

Officially renamed my Packout that carries snacks in the TJ. 
Just went out to hit some Jeep trails and see how the suspension is doing outside of my garage. I'm really happy with the way I have this thing setup now. I think a trip to Moab might just be in order when it's not boiling outside. Impressed with what I can get up without lockers. I think I'm going to get her weighted in at the CAT scale next since this is mostly her final form for now.

Last weekend was the last time I am ever hauling a steel cable up a trail I can barely stand up on.

After only starting it twice in over 2 months, I actually put gas in it, drove it to a nearby town 15 miles away and tried to make it look clean before parking it miles from my house because of HOA rules.
I haven't washed mine since January. Haven't started it since February. Haven't laid eyes on it since beginning of March..
La portière passager est enfin arrivée. J'ai installé la salope.*

* The passenger door finally arrived. I installed the bitch.
I did the final alignment on the above passenger door this evening after work. Going into it, I knew the alignment of the factory full door was a little off (RCH low, dropped to rear slightly) and potentially contributing to a water leak on this side since purchase 2 years ago. As luck would have it, though I did not immediately think this, getting the half door properly gapped and aligned also required adjustment of the striker on the tub...something I initially hoped to avoid. Seems this adjustment played well with the full door when reinstalled, reducing and potentially eliminating the leak. We just had a heavy thunderstorm roll through and I noticed the footwell is dry as a bone. To correctly and permanently solve the issue, the hinges on the full door should be reset, but it's nice to know my suspicions were correct and....I hate to say this for jinxing....I might actually be on my way to a dry interior!
I finally drove it! I think the thrill is gone and I might sell it soon. Since I retired with little SS money, my focus is making enough money to survive over having fun.

Toured Sand Mines outside Rocky Top, TN. Thought I was using my bumper to push someone off a high center; turns out it was the winch control box and grill 
.
These Sand Mines were used to build Noris Dam.

Weak. I regret to inform you this kind of thing is NOT going to earn you another ROTM trophy, sir.
Immersion/submersion is key, John. You know this. Try harder. Deeper the better.
