Start with the bad news. Some T on T carnage a mile from my house. A kid in a suit driving a 3rd gen 4Runner hit an FZJ80 (looks like 93-94?) broadside. Kids date was ruined. And you can clearly see the sadness of 80 mans face. nice built too, roof rack delete, side step delete, snorkel, clean. Totaled for sure. The good news is there might be some new seats on the market for me.
Checked my diffs, my rear diff oil was clean but a little low...hmmm. My front was dark which isn’t great because I changed it less than 5000 miles ago. The center diff looked good. Then I tackled the de-rusting of my hitch
SO much rust.
Then for fun, I went out to a nearby vacant lot and tried to see if I could find the difference between my sway bar attached and disconnected (I bought a disconnect kit for the front from a mud member)
Well the ground was a little soft for a good comparison (I just smashed down the hills) but I got some nice flexing shots.
Also, the subscription to Outdoor X4 came, its 6 issues and it looks really cool.
Can’t wait to comb through it.
Lastly, It was VERY pretty last night once the clouds cleared.
Thats all.
