Key sent from previous owner no-work-ie.   :(

Tahoe key returned.

Junkyard ignition cylinder will stay.  Spare key screwed to chassis.

FLX sticker affixed.  It's now official.

Kinda liking "Whatever"...

RC trip broke a rear shock mount (poor welds), shock shaft, and tore a break line off.  Parts on order...

If a shock mount was poorly welded, what else should you double check?

Back to wheeling status.

New brake hose, brake line, shock, installed.  Shock mount fabbed from 3/16" scrap.  Extended hard line and bracket another 2 inches to allow full droop without stretching hose.  Also installed new bump stop extensions and trimmed split poly bumps.

After this past RC weekend...

New rear bump stop that I could not seat properly vacated it's previously damaged jouncer cup.  Flipped it upside down and wired-tied in.  Good for the remainder of the weekend.  Will attempt repair of existing cup and install properly.

The previously repaired rear ARB solenoid failed.  Not enough "meat" on the wire left to effect another repair.  Swapped front/rear for the weekend because I prefer to have a rear locker.  Mikemike may have a replacement on hand...

I think I have a spare solenoid in the YJ toolbox if you need one to test..
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

Jouncer cup removed, deburred and reinstalled.  Bump stop deburred, lubed, and re-installed correctly.  ARB solenoid swapped in.

Let's go wheelin!
