I don't recall even hearing of it. :Stupid Me:
I saw GWTW on TV about 40 years ago. That's it from your list, though. :hidesbehindsofa:

Ordered what I need for cruise control should be able to fully install that myself without any issues, my spare tire cover should be arriving any day now, wheel bearings for the front arrived last week. Now I just need to wait for winter to end to throw the wheel bearings in. Slowly I'm putting the Libby back to full mechanical shape.

I left the house this morning to go do some laps at the gym. Left there to come home and got the blinky check engine light. eek2.gif Scan Gauge said cylinder 2 misfire. Got it home, swapped a couple of coils around to learn that the coil had given up the ghost.
I had to replace 2 coils in 2012 after getting the engine a little too wet when cleaning, so I figured that this one would make number 3 of the factory coils to go. Not so. The one that went was one of the newer ones. :mad3: Fortunately, it was still under manufacturer warranty and I got my money back for the replacement. And I'm still running 4 of 6 factory coils at 250K miles.
New coil installed + bath on the test drive = happy Eugene.
Now I should go out and put the new shorty wiper blade on the back while the weather is still respectable.

Brushed a half foot of snow off of it and warmed it up. Not sure if it was the snow around it but couldn't hear much of my pesky knock. Just the chatter of the tensioners and a little tap up top. If the weather ever warms I'm gonna pull the top off again and have a look.

Even for Iowa this has been a rough winter, its been a while since we've had a winter like this in general. Past few years its been usually one storm and done temps hang around the 20's and 30's. This winter its been cold and bitter, usually a storm about once a week it seems. But I think its going to be another nice cool summer which means the Sundays are going to be fun days of working on the Libby.

Removed roof rails, getting ready to fab up some 1.5"x.120 tube rails.
Finished bending and tack welded the step portion of rock sliders with 1.5"x.120 tube.
Tomorrow: Finish welds and take some pics for the album...maybe finish up my buddies TJ roof rack if he is feeling better.

Fitted a Kill switch to the EMS / ABS for sand use. This kills all brake assist ABS and everything else that was stopping me get out of big bowls in the sand.
Got my steering rack fixed (again) as the passenger mount snapped for the second time in 6 weeks

Well its actually pretty exciting.....a long time ago I was offroading in Florida, got a scratch on the pan (no skids)
I was giving the jeep a good look over last friday and I noticed it had a paint rust bubble and I got stupid and pushed in on it...mmmm then I got minor seeping, so just dropped it and changed it out. It was due for a ****** fluid change anyway.
Seeping: enought to color a paper towel after jeep sat in my driveway overnight when I wiped down the pan.
