Yeah, but I've already got so much tied up in this LJ, what's another grand among friends?
I feel that.

Today's progress:
Thanks for helping me spend more money on parts!
- Decided to dump the 1 gallon aluminum air tank and go with the ARB Mini Compressor (build list in Post 1 updated)
- Decided to dump the Bussmann secondary PDC and get a Switch Pros 12-switch system (build list in Post 1 updated)
- Pulled the fuel tank to fix a cracked filler neck (more on that below)
Sure, I just do it the easy way.Has anyone successfully repaired similar damage?

Don't let the color confuse you. When we remove one, we paint all the fittings as soon as we remove them to protect them from sun rotting UV which will turn them to dust in short order.
What, pray tell, is the easy way?
Why do you prefer switchpros over something like Auxbeam?
Auxbeam provides terminals for the functions so they can easily be swapped out if desired which is one of the things that has been beneficial with my older sPod. Auxbeam I believe is much cheaper.
Is there something I’m missing?

Well, gents, I’ve suffered a setback. I had a PTO day to burn, so I took yesterday off with the hopes of making some build progress on a three-day weekend. I started yesterday by heading to a rental property I have to do some minor maintenance between tenants. I had about a hundred small bricks in the garage there and decided to move them home. I loaded them up and drove home. While unloading them, my back started to ache, which is not uncommon. However, by the time I was done, it was intense, sharp pain.
I went into the house, took three Advil, and lay on the floor to stretch a bit. The Advil never “kicked” in. I spent the day not moving much, in the hopes it would improve. Eventually, I dipped into some left over happy pills from a knee surgery a few years back. Those only dulled the pain enough that I wasn’t in constant agony.
I’m typing this from bed on my iPad because when I got up in the middle of the night to pee, I nearly passed out from the pain. I think I slipped a disk. It’s gotten worse - not better - overnight. I’m waiting for the pill to kick in so that I can get up and move around a bit, but it looks like no progress for me this weekend!

Sorry to hear that, Dude. Has this happened before?
Like Blaine says for our jeeps, balanced operation is key for the body too!
