Well, back to travelling for work (first time since March 2020) so it's been a super busy couple weeks. This is looking into my back yard before I left Feb 27th. We are 3rd for snow accumulation since they started keeping records in the 1870's.

So it was a nice break to arrive in Nebraska to this ! Highs of 70 - 80 for 4 days. Unfortunately they desperately need moisture.

Back to the program... The rear underbody at the back bumper was a little torn up. I suspect from chain hooks from towing or trailering. I have before pictures from the left side .

And... After pictures from the Right side. Both were roughly the same condition to start. Right side needed a little segment of a washer welded in to replace a torn out piece.
