What was done to your rig this week?

Changed my engine and transfer case oil. Realized I have a bad frame side bushing in my front lower control arm. Ordered new bushings and going to tackle that this weekend. Also sense I had the transfer skid off I pulled both drive shafts out and greased them. I have a bent je real drive shaft that's been in my garage for a year that I sent to Jim to get it re tubed and balanced so I have a spare for my Moab trip. Just trying to get ahead of the game.
 
Made a custom CB mount with so help from a Jeep friend and mounted and wire the CB just in time for a snow run last weekend.

Swapped out the hook on the Xeon for this ProLink shackle mount from Factor 55 while I patiently await for my Truck-Lites to arrive :)

-24C (-11F) and I'm out freezing, but installing a Synergy Baja Basket.
I haven't decided yet if I'm crazy or dedicated to the Jeep for working outside in that temperature!

No need to remove the hard top like Synergy says, although if you don't have a hard top on, it would be an easier process. For me, to remove the roof top tent, gobi rack then the hard top would have cost me more time than dealing with awkward angles.

I'll clean up my leftover garbage and get it properly loaded up later this weekend hopefully.

Was going to get a Tuffy Deck but that looks pretty good! Can you adjust it to sit lower or higher if wanted?

Yes - there are tube clamps that go on the bars - prop the basket where you want it, install the tube clamps and you're all set. The ability to set the height was the primary reason I went with this one. But.... because you need to slice four small holes in the roll bar padding, you'll want to be fairly confident in where you set the height first.

Tube clamps and mounting brackets:

Cut out of the roll bar padding:

To clean up the look of the cuts, I'll take some tweezers and push the fabric back in on itself so you don't see the yellow foam.
