Dual battery setup.
Okay, we're a little crazy to have a Duramax for a daily driver. But if we go off our meds, we might wind up in a Prius.

Nice. 8) You'll be my first call on the radio my next stuck.



My wish list if I have any moneys left:
Cage upgrade
D30 shafts and Aussie or Spartan auto locker
Synthetic winch line

Most likely after Valentines Day before I knock anything off of that list. :(

Probably nothing new. Just going to be fixing and maintaining. I have a whole list of new stuff I would like to get, but that won't happen for a while.

Probably nothing but chances are I'll end up with some nice new tools that will come in handy once the truck moves onto the priority list. At the moment its not even a consideration.

Have not looked. . .probably that or track bar bushing. It is just a little annoying right now and the underside still has a lot of snow/ice.

He may also get some more exterior illumination and maybe some steel thrown at him. . .he's a cheep date.

I have (think I still have) a control arm I took off for a clunk. I think the nuts were just loose, so if you want to throw a normally cheap part at it for free let me know. My other new control arm is being thrown at the other side for the new clunk. Mine only happens in 4wd, yours?

Also got a spare track bar, no idea if it works on a Cherokee, but yours to try too.

My rig's "santa" is so broke he can't even pay the rent or utility bills... so, I suspect the answer is "nothing".
