Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance this week and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
It's on pretty good. The bracket I'm using are the same that hold my awning.

I built a steel top for my work bench and started breaking down my 4l80e in preparation for the stage 3 rebuild and shift kit.
This summer I'm going to replace my th350 3 speed trans with it along with a 203/205 doubler.
I have an extensive build thread "70 K20 Suburban" if interested.

Today I swapped out the stock rear spring for OME 2866 coils, removed the factory running boards and whipped up a hidden front
winch mount

Jet engine(SAI) in the Rover finally died, swapped it with a used one I found on ebay....I think most of Land Rover parts are there just to throw CELs, perfect parts sales marketing campaign HAHA
Today, I installed my tent on my rack and finally chose a location for my emblem. #4815

In preparation for Overland Expo and Prudhoe Bay, I dropped the Jeep off at Linville Brothers in Sacramento today for:
New tires and rims
New coil springs (4)
New shocks (4)
New left front hub assembly
New ball joints
New pitman arms
New longer brake lines
New lower control arms
New upper control arm bushings
They PROMISED it back by Tuesday afternoon. #CuttingItClose
Also ordered a snorkel and 6 "ARB Rip-Off" lights...
The money I saved on Sufe vs ARB paid for everything listed above :-)

I finished the down and inspection and ordered parts for my 4l80e rebuild. It actually looked great inside, I'll bet it had another 50k miles or more left in it.
Man there are a lot of parts in an automatic transmission!

CVT MT. Thielsen, it is not being produced any longer. There is another company selling the same one, I believe.

Mounted my ARB 2000 awning with some home made brackets and added a shovel mount before this weekend's trip to Mendocino
Also tested out this cheep sun shade nets for the windows that should work perfect as a bug screen when sleeping in the car.

Yo
You're a brave man to rebuild an automatic transmission on your own. Best of luck with it!I finished the down and inspection and ordered parts for my 4l80e rebuild. It actually looked great inside, I'll bet it had another 50k miles or more left in it.

Moved to Yellowstone. Now just waiting for everything to thaw so the exploring can commence!
A few days late. Kinda difficult to find internet up here.

Installed the C4 sliders and tested how I want to mount the trasharoo on the ladder.
Took my Jeep in for an oil change and was informed my PCV elbow was broken. Rather then pay them $40 to replace it, I swung by Autozone and $5 and 5 minutes later all good.
