Today, I took the shop-vac out and vacuumed the bed rug till there was no more dust, saw dust or wood chips in it. Then, I took the wheels off, one at a time, and got under it with a spray bottle of Simple Green, some brushes and the hose. When each wheel well and section of frame was done, I sprayed it with tire shine to make it look shiny and new!
I also checked the oil level in the rear. About 5 weeks ago, I put a Trac-lock differential in it. Oil level was just right, rear is working like it should!
Tomorrow, it gets a good bath and the interior cleaned.

Installed e-fans and the Gatorback belt that has been hanging on my wall for a couple of years. It is so easy to change, with the fan out of the way.
Also, I borrowed one of those inspection cameras from a friend and was able to see where my round finger screwdriver thing ended up, after it fell down a hole in the engine compartment by the battery. It was rattling around like crazy in there. I was able to steer a magnet to it and get it out. Never would have happened, if I couldn't have seen it with the probe camera. Those things are pretty cool. Might have to buy me one.

I bought a Ford steering wheel cover, as the weather down here is beginning to get sticky and the wheel is much more easily gripped and turned now.
Also bought Meguir's Scratch X 2.0 and worked it down both sides of the bed where rose bushes have scratched her over the years. Intensive interior cleaning is coming as soon as I can go outside without turning into a soupy puddle.
