The beater got some love today.
Changed out the fluid in the transmission. Pretty sure it's the original 213,000 mile fluid. Still need to do the diff's and the transfer case before winter.

Also did a TB rebuild. Had ordered a rebuild kit along with an injector pod spacer a long time ago, just never had go time to install it. Used a TB that I had already done a port & polish job on a while back. Just had to unbolt the old one, replace all the gaskets in the injector pod, install the spacer, and bolt it back on.
All torn apart

Busted on of the plastic vacuum lines when I tried to remove it. Repaired with a piece of shrink tubing.

I have a new CV axle along with new tie rods and adjusters coming from RockAuto. I rarely use the 4x4 in this thing so it's not a crisis. I also junkyard picked a new drivers side mirror since someone decided to bust the glass out of mine......
And somehow the fan is hitting the shroud and making a very not so nice noise. It only appears to be one of the blades so I'm guessing it's bent. Not to worry, I have a solution to that
