Yeah it came of a ZJ Jeep. I'm trying to find some pictures. I had some on my phone but I can't remember if I uploaded them to my computer or deleted them. I'll look some more though. I ended up using the old brackets from the Jeep to build up the mounting system. It was welded on so this is permanent which I have no problem with. We made it really easy to remove too. Two bolts on each side and the bumper slides off. Next time I have the bumper off I'll take some pics.

Those are great shots. I'll upload the pictures. Check out my instagram though as I took a bunch of photos of the process for the time being.

We've been having some nice winter weather here in northwest Washington State recently. We started with snow, then had freezing rain, more snow, more freezing rain, then more snow. The windward side of the Mighty Mitsu had almost 3/4" of solid ice on her!
After lots of time running in the driveway and chipping, chipping, chipping at the ice, it was finally safe to drive. SabreWife and I went out in the snow to visit a local wildlife refuge. A little side trail off the road looking very inviting....
SabreWife immediately said, "this is just like driving in deep sand at Moab! We're just floating along!"
Except it wasn't sand. It was mud. We backed out as much as we could but were soon up to the frame. Jeez, I hate mud. Happily, I had joined the Kickstarter for a pair of TRED Pros and just happened to have them on board. Seriously, without these little guys we wouldn't have gotten out without help.
So we had a little adventure, had some fun, got to see how well those TREDs work, and no harm done. Except that all that mud & grass was jammed up there in my wheels, brakes, steering and suspension and was about to freeze into solid rock. The local car wash is closed due to freezing weather so poor old Sabre had to break out a hose and spend an hour washing my damned undercarriage in subfreezing temps. The neighbors thought I had absolutely lost it.
It's all part of the adventure! :bike_rider:

Before getting my biology degree I majored in Spanish with a Russian minor, then studied Spanish literature in grad school; I'm fluent in Spanish but didn't use the Russian for a few decades, so I'm terribly out of practice. I work at a hospital and use the Spanish almost every day, but we also have a lot of Russian speakers in the community so I'm trying to build my vocabulary back up. I can get by in French and can more or less stumble through German, Italian and Portuguese. I love languages!

Got a bit stuck, everyone was surprised how well I did on bald 29s though!

Montero threw a P0306 code at my wife on her way to work, I replaced spark plugs and wires and during a shakedown run caught a P0300, turned into a P0306 after an ECU reset. Running rough, wouldn't stay running without serious gas, short term fuel trims at +25. Initial info from the shop is that cylinder 6 has no compression, and another cylinder has low compression. Looking like valves. Researching options now so I have some idea of what my mechanic is going to quote me. Time for some painful math. It always hurts to google "How much will a junkyard give me for my car?"
