I found some unimproved roads in Danby, Dorset, Manchester, and Sandgate, VT today and introduced my mom to wheeling. She had a bottle of water with her, and after a particularly difficult rock ledge climb said, "I should have brought something stronger to drink." Great sense of humor! She had a great time and loved the back-country scenery.
With the help of Rodney at Performance Unlimited (Woodstock, VT), I finished a ton of work on the truck this week. Because of time and tool constraints, I had Rodney replace a leaking front diff seal and worn front left CV, reposition my Shrockworks bumper and add a few welds to lock in place, and pop in my new rear LCA's from Toy Outfitters.
Once I got the truck home, I reinstalled my rear sway bar, mounted a fire extinguisher, and added a beer bottle opener to my rear bumper. I also applied some electrical cleaner to the winch remote connections and spread the pins for better contact...no more malfunctioning winch remote. For fun, I threw on my Trasharoo because, well, why not?

The white steelies and new shoes should be on in less than two weeks. That should wrap up truck projects for a little while - I finished all of my shakedown projects and it is running beautifully. Time to get out and wheel; looking forward to meeting some new folks at the Yankee Toys Fall Gathering.
