Nice progress on mods and maintenance on your trucks folks!

Unfortunately mine is sitting still, hasn't been driven in a couple weeks even. I put the stock wheels & tires on the last time I drove it because I had to get my lawn mower from service repair and put the wheels with the Bora spacers on the next day.

I of course still fully intending to do the maintenance it needs this year, but I recently foolishly bought another toy that all my attention has been on lately.

Thanks buddy, I never intended to keep it with the mileage so low but life, job changes allowed me too. Now I'm in complete preservation mode even though i wish I got to enjoy it more. But everytime I drive it now, it still feels brand new from the seats to how it drives, just can't believe it's been 11 years.

No worries about your mileage.. You seem to be very handy and stay on top of your maintenance, it should last you a good long time.. I enjoy reading your build thread btw.
