It's coming!

Duke do you carry a shovel and kitty litter or something for traction?
Shovel is mounted on my roof rack, traction boards are mounted to the inside of the lids of my rifle cases - they are conveniently the right dimensions.

Sorry about the picture quality - hopefully, you can make it out. I was using my iPad (which doesn’t have a flash) when replying. Oh, also trying to make a Manhattan at the same time - Happy Hour, you know!

How is the light output compared to OEM ?
Went out tonight and got some photos. Headed into a hill for the cut off. A couple of tips to speed things up. For the plastic clip on the fender flare, put an 8mm socket on it and push. It collapses the pin enough to pop it out. Use a stubby flat blade screwdriver to pop the 5 bottom grille tabs loose.

Actually yesterday, had new shoes installed.
Falken Wildpeak AT4W to replace the original General Grabber A/TX .
Had to go out this morning and shift the crash bar, they were just barely rubbing at full lock in reverse.

Changed the oil and rotated the tires.
Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w-30 and Mobil 1 M1-209A filter. This is the FL-400S equivalent which fits fine in place of the FL-910S but it's a little bigger and easier to reach.

Changed out my front brakes and rotors after being absolutely blindsided by an absurd quote that include $600 of labor. Was kinda hard and messy but glad I learned and definitely think I could do it faster in the future. Kinda stinks it won’t be for a few years so I won’t have the experience fresh on my mind.

I also installed the FX4 skid plate, I definitely love the look especially over the gapped front with the air dam removed. Although you can’t really even see it but maybe with the 2.5” level it’ll be more prominent

I finally (after 12+ months) sprayed a bittering agent on my engine wiring, battery blanket, engine cover, and hood lining. It was incredibly easy. I mixed up a 150 ppm solution in a one-liter sprayer.

I also sprayed Kate's car where rodents have eaten half the insulation blanket on the bottom side of her engine cover.

This is the stuff in that Honda tape and it's also used on watch batteries to prevent kids from eating them. It's considered the bitterest chemical compound in the world!

"... a thimbleful, would make the water in an Olympic-sized swimming pool taste unpleasantly bitter"
