Not so much today, but more this week. Got the gearbox serviced (if you have a D3 or RRS - they are not sealed for life units and do require a regular filter and oil change) and swapped the plastic sump for a metal one with separate filter. Runs so much better now - the old oil was black and smelly, probably should have been done a few '000 kms ago. Also got some new tyres fitted Falken Wildpeak AT3W's. Looking forward to testing them out next weekend.

Still have heaps to do, but working my way through the list.

Ive been searching wrecking yards online and today I found and bought an M205 front diff from a 2013 Armada to swap into my Xterra. I already have the required V8 Pathfinder axles sitting here beside my desk at work, and will be ordering gears (and a new E-Locker) from Rugged Rocks in the next few days.

Well... I went and started the paperwork to trade in the H3 for a brand new 2017 4Runner TRD offroad edition which arrives in a week. Excited to move on to a new and more reliable vehicle, but I'm sure going to miss the adventures and even the struggles with the Hummer.
Really adjusting well to my '16 SR5 DC {bought used .with 21k on it}..Came from an '11 Ram..

Ordered an arq4wd 270° awning.. Uses no support poles. Not a lot of reviews on it but everything I found was positive. For the price of $245 shipped to my door vs $700 for the foxwing awning made it a no brainer. Hopefully it's as nice as it looks.

How about in the wind? Looks like it could turn into a hang glider?? I like it though,too.

Absolutely the best hammock we have owned; after numerous brand attempts in various vehicles. This one is exceptional.
