Nope. It’s gotta be sanded down and repainted with fresh clear.

Yep, unfortunately when the clear starts to flake there’s no easy fix. It’s time to repaint.

Got another exam trip to mammoth next week. Driving on my own again. Gotta make sure the Nali is road trip ready. I was about 400 miles short of my oil change interval, and oil life monitor said I was at about 20%. But I had no desire to make a 600 mile round trip and go slightly over my interval. So I picked up oil today and took the free hour and a half I had in between work and my Thursday evening gym class and knocked it out. Ended up with an ACDelco filter this time around. Got my air filter cleaned up as well, and hopefully tomorrow afternoon, my clients shop can rotate my tires real quick for me. I meant to ask him today while I was there washing cars and totally forgot about it.

Took a few minutes to clean up the engine bay after I put everything back together and started up the engine. Cleans up well. He gets dusty under the hood so quickly.

Got a quick tire rotation in this afternoon after I finished up work. My buddy that is the head mechanic for the jeep shop was able to handle it for me thankfully. Owners of the shop are out of town and he was just finishing up his work day. He’s like yeah I’ll knock it out for you! I love when he does stuff for me cuz he’s so detail oriented and always does things right, he’s putting lug nuts back on and he’s like “hey look up in your owners manual what it says your lug nuts need to be properly torqued to cuz I can never remember” lol. I love that. Anyways that’s handled now before my road trip Monday.

Truck rolled over 150k on the way up today. Just north of Bishop on highway 395, at Sherwin summit, roughly 7,000 feet in elevation
This is the stretch of road it hit 150k lol

Nice! I used to own one. Loved that beast.! It needed everything though, and without replacing the motor and trans, it would never have been really solid.

So after much dragging my feet I finally ordered a fleece module for the 4-Hi or whatever it is mod. Lol. Which I wasn’t aware that actually needed to do in order to correctly have my morimoto bi xenon projector and HIDs function correctly. But now they function correctly. I’ll admit, I wasn’t as sold on the HID and projector retrofit at first, but they perform pretty awesome at night now that I’ve gotten used to them. Also now having my fog lights on with my high beams should be nice. I still had to keep the two diodes in place between the relays to keep my DRLs on with both headlights as I have my LED running lights in the headlights tied in to the DRL but I still want them on at night. Anyways that’s all done. The headlights need to get adjusted though. I’m not impressed with anzo’s u bar headlights. Which really irritates me for how expensive these headlight housings run. Plus the inside corner of the housing is super loose and wiggles around. I can’t seem to figure out why....
And I really dislike the way anzo did the outer corners where the amber reflector is. It’s all chrome and it’s got these funky ass grooves cut into it. Looks so damn cheesy in my opinion

Previous aftermarket LED tube lights, which were starting to peel:
And the new U-bars with the morimoto mini H1 8.0 bi xenon projectors:
Getting close to @05Single territory with how often I’m changing lights around.....

Should wrap the top imo . Cheaper and just as clean as paint
