I say Prius with a roof rack.

What is the recommended power steering fluid?

You mentioned the valves being cleaned. Did you check the filters ? They can become clogged with a waxy oil base substance from leaking hub CTIS seals. Tires won't be able to inflate and deflate as designed. These don't clean very well. Best to replace. Several sources on the well-known auction...

Yup, buy on the fly. I got 6 chains for $150.

Chains are purty : ) You need to go in some snow and video tape it and put on Youtube.

Looks like a Harbor Freight.

Annual maintenance costs associated with operation of an LMTV are predicated on whether you bring it back to new state or do minimal work on it and fix it as you go. If you put all synthetic fluids in, they cost more, but you won't be replacing them as often (assuming you are not getting...

Honestly, for a little more effort, pop the AC pulley on for a later build and change that front engine seal. Easy peasy if you are already in there.

The build is definitely something to be proud of! I need to borrow your garage ! ; ) I assume there is no subframe suspension. That much aluminum must have cost a bundle, BUT saved a lot of weight.

Did you build your box or buy? Looks great!
