Cool. Looks great, either way... Looking forward to getting one at some point and doing the same

Finally received the new drain/fill plugs for the front differential on the 4R last Thursday. Today I refilled it with Lucas and had a hell of a time getting the boogered up drain plug out. Glad I already had the replacement in hand. Now there is not much more maintenance this beast needs except an oil change again. I do still have a new radiator to put in but am going to do that when I have all the parts for the larger transmission cooler ready to go.

Ordered an aluminum front skid plate from RCI Metalworks since they were having a 15% off group buy. Will be ordering Shrockworks sliders as well as soon as the ordering for that group buy opens up. I plan to pick up the transmission, transfer case, and gas tank skids from RCI one at a time as money allows.

What vehicle is this for? The new Subi?

Started on the respect of the 81. I was really disliking the flat black bedliner so I picked up some Sandstorm bedliner. Upside is I like the color and the can covers a lot of material. The 8 cans I have are probably enough. Downside is the shit comes out like its from a garden hose and it runs like a mofo!! So I'll have to let it dry and sand out the runs and hit it again.

Much mo' betts. Scraped it all off with a razor blade and reshot it in VERY light coats.

About 5 lbs. :) Its actually a water based paint... each can is 20 oz... I have 8 cans. Figure once the water evaporates it should be pretty light. But it does look thick! I just hope it holds up. I'd hate to sand this rubbery shit off the whole truck.

Oh and that last photo still needed another coat. Its looking pretty good now. I think I'll start on the rest of the truck tomorrow. Provided nothing drastic happens overnight.
