I have the cloth seats and the dogs and hunt gear are about all that's been in the back seat. It's like a carnival when both of my dogs and my buddy's Border Collie are back there! Three seventy pounders. It gets vacuumed once in a while and the snot cleaned off the windows. Hell, ya can't see the snot from the outside.

I thought I better check the ESOF after all that work yesterday. Seals and Orings. It works! I just backed it out of the garage and cleaned the garage up, went in and cleaned up, had dinner and crapped out in the living room. The Griffon, one our dogs, just caught a blue jay and brought it in the garage for me. Dipstick. If Herself seen that we'd both be in it deep.

Nice work on the ESOF, i removed mine and went to Warns 2 years ago.. It seemed everytime I needed my $x4 to work, the hose was busted..

My pup runs everywhere with me, and I thought for a while I was lucky, he didnt seem to shed much, but now seems to run a different story.

Yeah I gotta do the Warn thing as well. I have to use a pliers to turn my hubs in and out. And I've even had them apart. Crappy plastic anyway. If nothing else the Warns are much shinier.

If you're asking about my truck, it's happy. Just got a bath, waxed, rain-x'd, interior clean, leather conditioned, an oil change, tranny fluid change, both diffs fluid change, power steering fluid flushed, and coolant change. It gets that every spring now that I own it.

Just got done putting the new steering stabilzer on. 10lb sledge worked great bending the mount back "close" to where it should be! I need to be more careful of stumps in the future. Now, it's Miller Lite time!

Mine really needs to be waxed. This parking outside sucks. But the rain just keeps on coming, everyday, enough now.

Like you said, I'll get the buffer out and clean and wax it when we're gong to have a few days of sun in a row. Sun is out right now and it feels good, another 20 minutes and it'll be raining again probably. The girls are out looking for mushrooms this afternoon. I guess you gotta make what you can out of the rain. I like the mushrooms they get in fritatas.
