Aight, work has begun on cleaning up the X a bit. work planned....

• Shaved door handles
• Shaved tailgate handle
• Shaved step pads
• Shaved antenna
• SS mirrors painted white
• Paint hood white(I know YAY!)
• Paint grill white

As i said, work has begun already. Most of it won't be actually done until late winter/early spring. However, i decided to get a jump start on it, and get some parts removed while it's still somewhat warm. All four step assemblies have been removed totally, but set back in place with no bolts/pins, so my cover isn't torn to hell. I got pics of progress so far, i'll post them later.

i'll take a good close-up pic of the front step when we do this, just to give a good idea of what's involved. i know there will have to be some grinding of material off the step, but that's OK...lol....

Pics of The Project

Just a few pics of the steps removed.

A pic of the steps temporarily set back in place with no bolts, just so my cover won't get torn by the brackets.

This is the baggie of bolts/pins that were removed while pulling the steps.
