I don't care if that cover doesn't do a darn thing. I really like how the engine bay looks now.

Don't forget to throw in the 100% humidity. Like hicks in the movie alien

Its a dry heat man!

Lol. I'll never get used to the heat. But thats still crazy hot.
It is crazy hot this week and it's usually June when we get these high temps. July is usually the start of monsoon season (through mid Sept.) and the temps are usually lower like 106-108 with more humidity but it looks like it's late or we're getting another Nonsoon summer.

Lack of humidity here does make a huge difference but 115 is darn hot, dry or not. Heck our morning lows are like some areas high right now. Although if I had to pick hot and dry is easier to deal with than the swampy humidity. There was one day when we were in southern UT and it rained at night so the next day out was more humid (I think it was only 47%) and we were both complaining how sticky it was. lol

Duke,
yeah this has been a nice hot summer so far 80s-90s every day. Couple of days with the humidity/ heat index we’ve felt hotter than Arizona, Nevada.
Im going to loosen it all up and try again, I did it in the evening and lost daylight.
I need one of those engine covers now like Steve has there.

The extender was a snap to install. The drill template was dead on. And it feels nice and solid.
That’s an interesting device Steve. I was over in the SuperCab Love thread and no one there has even heard of it.

;)

Installed a DeeZee tailgate damper just now. Super easy install.

In a side note, the wife is about to kille me for all the money I’ve been spending in the Ranger lately.:shock:
Pics of the damper installed and you'll get your t shirt Terry. lol

Start having all your packages send to your neighbors house. Let his wife be mad at him thinking they're his. ?

Gave the poor girl some much needed attention.

Broke out the upholstery cleaner and gave the interior a deep clean. Pup has taken to chasing geese through the marsh and thoroughly stunk up the joint. Really impressed with the Carhartt seat covers. Cleaned up like new and they sure do take a beating.

Stripped off the 303 …sorry @AzScorpion. Just couldn’t take the sticky feeling anymore when detailing. Used Adams strip wash in an Adams foam gun. Stripped everything down really nicely without having to clay bar. Even took out all the bug splatter without much scrubbing. Then polished out any water spots, took out all the scuffs on the bug deflector, polished up the headlights, and polished the windows. Then applied a coat of Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant. Really like the wet look it maintains and rags just glide across the finish.
