I've been negligent in updating my build thread so here is an update from the past few months.
In preparation for a 5000km road trip out west I caught up on some much needed maintenance. I installed a Cold Air Intake (ebay special with a K & N filter), new spark plugs, transmission filter, new differential fluid, new U-Joints and finished with an oil change and tire rotation. I've been forced to deal with some gremlins lately too, and its forced me to put aside my offroad related mods and concentrate on sorting out my daily driver. I've replaced the speedometer stepper motor, replaced the 4x4 switch, replaced the blower motor resistor (no heat during a Manitoba winter is not an option) and replaced a faulty headlight switch.
