Up here in the land of free health care (only in the minds of Americans), you end up dying waiting to be seen at the hospital or they send you home and you die because they misdiagnos you. It's been happening too often. I'd have to already be dying before I would go to a hospital now, there are just too many shortages of nurses , etc. Trying to stay heathy enough to never end up in a hospital is a fulltime job.
Whaaaaa? My 7th grade social studies teacher assured me that Canada "takes care" of their citizens from cradle to grave. While us uncaring Americans make people pay for their own healthcare.

Started prep work for Moab. Got the rear brake lines replaced, tomorrow will be the fronts. Forgot how much I hate working on hydraulic brake systems.
Are you just doing stainless steel lines? Make sure you siphon out the old brake fluid out of the master cylinder and then add new fluid in there, before taking off the lines. Just so you don't drain any particles sitting in the reservoir.

PICS?

Yessir I am, got them from @Rick@FMS about a year ago and time just hasn't been on my side to get them installed as life decided to give me a whole pallet of lemons last year.

I'll grab some pictures once I get the fronts on this evening. Whole system will be getting a good flush while I'm at it.

Put some Weathertech mats in and dropped the spare for a deep clean prior to the new wheels showing up on Wednesday. Getting that thing lowered and into the bed was a real workout!

BTW I have the original SVT floormats up for sale in Midland, MI. I'll let them go for a steep discount to somebody from the forums.

Speaking of weathertechs Idk If anyone knew this or done it. If the edge starts to fold up vs stay flat a heat gun (low heat) and some weight works wonders to reshape them. Ive had to do this a few times between work my own. Just an fyi LOL

These ones are the HP material which is more of a rubber vs. the plastic. I figured I would give them a try for the small difference in price. Time will tell but these are definitely more grippy and contour just about perfectly.
