    Today, for my rig, I ...

    I've noticed there's been quite a few people posting on the chat window some little bits they did to add to their trucks. So, I thought I'd make a thread so we can see some damn pictures! Post up the little things you did for your truck today and show us what you spent your paycheck on instead of something useful! Did you install a new set of gauges, wire in some lights, do some painting, welding, or cleaning? Take a picture and let us know!

    Today I saw seafoam on the clearance counter at O'Reilly's so I thought I'd give it a shot and added a bottle to my fuel and oil system to clean it out. Also, I did some touchups on the air intake I added to my X5 the other day, and replaced the cabin filter. Check it out.

    boring, I wired up Angela's Jeep with a set of spot lights on the windshield and replaces the factory lights with some delta lights and wired em in for daytime running lamps. Then added the last piece to the wifes bumper, cleaned the garage and drank some beers with Brian. I aint got no pics I was busy working!

    Hey, nice! There's a few of those I should prolly give some attention to. That looks like a good seal, too. Did you have to buy a new case part? It looks shiny.

    the shiny part was from the slip yoke eliminator kit... Hasn't been installed too long..

    Not sure why it started leaking.. my u-joint at the rear diff pinion was loose (straps didn't tighten down on the caps all the way) so I had a vibration, it caused the pinion nut to loosen up, so maybe that vibration caused the leak? I don't know...

    Id think most damage from any of that vibration would e closer to the source, by the yoke and not at your transfer case. It sounds weird that it would cause the case seals to leak at the split. Maybe it was just weak and that was it's final day. Who knows... It's fixed now, right? Drive on!

    What, this thing? I had fun putting that together! It doesn't have to look good for me to like it. It was cool and generated a positive result.
