Hey guys. It's been a while. Probably over a year and a half since I was last on. Been working way to much and not spending any time on the Sportage. I actually haven't taken it wheeling in about that same amount of time. I've been spending any available wrenching time on another project that isn't making as much head way as I'd like it to either because wrenching time is very few and far between.

The Sportage is running like crap these days and I need to give it some serious TLC. It needs a new radiator, water pump, coils, plugs, skid plates, and now another tail pipe.

I took my factory fuel skid plate off when my fuel tank rusted through and haven't replaced it yet. I was going to either replace it with a factory one, or fab one. Then fab one to replace the front skid plate, but other things have got in the way.

The coils and plugs are on the list first and then the radiator and water pump. It needs to run well enough to take wheeling before I turn my focus back to the skid plating.

I'll try to check in more often even if work keeps going like it has.
