Trimmed the air dam back a touch. I am afraid it is not fully deflecting the air around the tires, but it will have to do until I replace the front bumper. I removed the roof rack, caulked the holes, and painted the roof white. That should help keep the cab of the vehicle cooler. Noted a minor change in drag with the roof rack gone, based on hill coasting speeds.
The MPG has been between 22 and 23 the past few fill ups with the new tires. I have been too excited to check MPG to run it to a full tank, which would take me over 900 miles, so I have been filling it between 100 and 200.
I have ordered a new steering gear, the stock one has deflection in the output which translates into steering slop. From a drive-ability standpoint I still need to swap out the drivers seat and fix the cruise control.
