looked over the braking system in the engine bay again, to finally get off the pot about sorting out the mushy-on-first-press braking problem. I need to just do the master already, and hope/pray it's not the ABS module.

This situation is very likely because, for a long time, there is rust between the screw and the nut, and you forcibly remove the screw with a wrench when you remove the screw, resulting in screw damage. You can use induction heaters to heat the nuts from the current situation. There are two functions; one is after heating, due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, there will be a gap between the nut and the screw; the other is that after the nut is heated, you can re-shape the nut, then you can use the wrench to take the nut off. Induction heater, you can try this solary h7e(used to rust for many years to remove the screws smoothly.Lug nut saga: Chapter 3
So, I got the kit of lug nut removers. Hammered the 17 cm one on. Smacked my thumb for good measure with the hammer once.That’s how you know it’s good and on.

All I was able to do was round it off even more.

I’m taking my Jeep (which I now OWN) on its’ first trip to the coast today.

I armor-alled the dash, console, and front door panels tonight. I haven’t wiped it out for a couple years, and it was in bad shape. I need to get a steering wheel cover to cover all the grime, too. Cleaning it off is too hard, and it looks like crap underneath.
get some Simple Green, dilute 1:1 in a spray bottle, mist the wheel, wait a couple minutes, hit it with an old tooth brush, wipe. repeat 2 or 3 times. then do a final wipe with a water-only wet towel to clean off any residue.

Sealed up all the joints on my roof rack so the snow (hopefully) doesn't get in.
Drove it 600 miles today. The redone front suspension rides really nice, but something clunks badly over larger bumps. I need to figure out where that is coming from. The most common source of clunks after coilover or lift installs on Google seems to be sway bar links that aren’t tight enough. I will see if that fixes it. Hope so. Anyone else had clunks over bumps after installing your lift?

I had that clunk for a month or two after I got my lift. I lived in a place with speed bumps and I heard it every time. Then it just went away and never came back.
Interesting. It is really a not cool noise, and I hope it doesn’t last 2 months! Raised bumps in the road seem to cause the clunk noise, but potholes don’t seem to.
I had a shop check my work when they did the alignment and they didn’t find anything amiss.
Congrats on your new Moderator position, Prof!
