Thanks. There's more to come but for now it's catching up on maintenance and future proofing.

Once I'm done the cooling system the next major fluid dump is the transmission. Not looking forward to it but it needs to get done. I've just scratched the surface on some of the aftermarket trans pans but I'm on the fence.

Cleared the tree recovery crap out and snapped a pic of how it sits yesterday.

I need to get a cap so I can get some of this crap up and out of the bed.

I happened to be at the same spot as the other pic last night so I snagged a quick one.

Someone talk me out of an Alibaba aluminum cap. Because these guys sent me down a rabbit hole.

The guy these PA folks (most likely) bought this from is about 20 minutes from me. I messaged him on FB and he has a warehouse with tons of covers for JTs and many others on hand. Based on what I see in the video I am pretty impressed.... but I really didn't want windows on the sides. I planned on getting a full length box to get my recovery crap up and out of the bed. Should I just suck it up?

Or should I pursue getting one from Alibaba that is exactly what I want? I threw the manufacturer of this guy's cap an RFQ for the hell of it. Looks like I could have it by end of September that way.


Ideal:

Anyone have an Ali-cap with an opinion?
