That doesn't look too bad. I only count 9 tools on the ground and only the MFH...when I see 12+ tools, the BFH and a torch, I know it was a struggle.

Nothing on the wheels. They’re 5 years old & look great so far. I wanted that flat black finish so that I would have a lot of polishing & other upkeep.
On the tires I use Formula 303 Aerospace Protectant mostly because dirt & mud doesn’t stick to it & it’s muc
nofhing on the wheels & Formula 303 Lon the tires
Take them off and leave them off
I like the looks of them there though. I did take the milk jugs off and ordered caps for the bumpers.
Cerakote or any rubber treatment will work.........................for a while.
Haha! The torch was there, didnt make it in the picture!That doesn't look too bad. I only count 9 tools on the ground and only the MFH...when I see 12+ tools, the BFH and a torch, I know it was a struggle.
Very nice and a lot less snow than just a few weeks ago.
Got the driver's side half door outer latch working.
Make sure you prep those hole edges inside and out. You do not want any sharp edges. Prime and paint, done!

I painted ours with the fabric/plastic paint.
Aside from 1 small scuff made by yours-truly (by pulling into the garage too far and then watching the door of the washing machine door almost clear the bumper at 9:00), they have stood up really well for more than 1 year now.
Pulled the Smittybilt rear bumper and boxed it up to return and stuck the OE rear I picked up Sunday on till I can decide what to go with.
At least I can carry a spare now.

Installed new precision auto injectors (credit to @macleanflood) so far they are working well! Also installed a DEI insulation kit.
Man the throttle body and injector ports were DISGUSTING! Guaranteed they have never been cleaned before. Cleaned them out good, now to tackle a small evap leak CEL.

I've decided that on 1 of them, I'm going to paint the inside of it. On the other one, i'm going to Cerakote the inside of it. Then, I'll pick one that I like better and do the outside of them.
Any recs how to prep the hole edges? I have a small deburring tool that I could use. And how do I get that to work on the inside?

Installed some flood lights to the swing out tire carrier so I can actually see where I’m backing up now. Install took some time but I’m pretty happy with how it came out. Went with the harbor freight 6” flood bars well just have to see how they hold up.
If your tool can hold something like this from Amazon or somewhere else they should do the job.
I drew up a quick sketch trying to show how to do it versus trying to explain it in words. Hopefully it makes sense.
Just be careful checking the edges with you fingers, I speak from experience on that

The manual version. Regardless of which tool(s) you use, be sure to wear good quality safety glasses. Eyeballs are not cheap.
