It's only a worthy bog for 4x2s. Bring your box trucks.

I don't know if Kim took any pictures, I told her she had to bear witness to the potential end of the enclosed trailer... it was adequate dumbness.

I should see if the Dakota starts today, and if not throw a Dump Bus battery in it along with the replacement battery cables it'd need to have a non-sidepost battery.

No power steering at all. needs work. bah.

I have two good Oct '12 batteries, they just don't have handles on them and are annoying to carry to the back yard!

I did 20% on the sides and 5% back window on Sr. I think I'll do a little less this time, 35% and 20% maybe? Rear is the same as the front sides, 75%. Rear sides are probably 35% or so.

i think 35 and 20 are good. my jeep had 18% (measured by a nice gentleman as he gave me a ticket) on the fronts and was too dark at night.

I bet the fronts on Sr measure to 15 or so, rears all 3%ish. It's nice 90% of the time. All except night time parking lot maneuvering.

Jetta had a purple tie-certified 33% all the way around, probably 50% film over stock glass. That was really light. I had been thinking of just matching the stock rear side windows which should be ~35%...

Descisions!

Back glass is 5% film over factory 73%. Rear sides are 20% over factory 35% and are a good visual match

Do the math! (it says the back is half the transmission of the sides but feel free to gloss over that part)

Hitch looks like it'll work well. Need to build out a box, the stringers are a few inches further apart than I was hoping for.

Hopefully I can get a hand on that from smike at some point. Cut out the old, weld in the new!
