The freespool on my winch has gotten a little stiff. Pulled the gearcase off it to clean and regrease. Even had some help with the cleaning part. I think it feels quite a bit better even though the old grease didn't look that bad. Hopefully it's not all in my head.

When I installed the rear axle, I had a hard time getting the vent line out from under the truss without kinking. I thought I might get away with the short "s" hose and connecting it to the stock 5/16" breather. It worked ok, but would occasionally (like 1/4 of the time) push oil out the vent. I finally committed to drilling a hole through the truss to switch it all to 3/8" hose. I drove it 4 hrs each way to Rush Creek and didn't notice any oil residue. So far it's a success.
Updates have somewhat been in spurts. Been relatively minor clean up stuff after the work last year.
Went down to Rausch Creek for a weekend with the family. It was my wife's first time driving, so we avoided the reds. Covered a decent amount of ground with just the two Jeeps.
