You know I'm there to help if you need it. I went ahead and ordered up the metal for my sliders.

When do you think you'll get around to installing them? I want to see how they look.

Will probably get around to the weekend after the fourth. Going to mod up my rear pinion skid Saturday afternoon if you want to cruise over to Ron's and hang out. I got my uni body stiffeners in today. Waiting for Casey to deliver the metal for my rocker skids.

Don't think I can trust my KM2s with there crappy side walls. One of them is already dead. Going to pick up 5 new MTRs tomorrow or order them if there not in stock. Shackle relocation brackets are on the way and I need to call up ruff stuff on Monday to talk to them about a new trac bar setup

Well go big and go broke. I bought everything to do my drums on the 44 then decided it is time for a bumper and a winch. Pockets are going to be empty for a minute.

It sure will. The MTRs were on a five week back order so I went with the pro comps and the 130 dollar no questions asked warranty.

Got my shackle relocations in the mail today. Took my Jeep to a local rear end shop. Don't know what's going on. Got it back and it heated up so hot I can't touch the diff cover after doing 70 for about 6 miles. Its turning out to be a nightmare.

Well after a lot of in and out of my 44 everything is good. Said F it and spent some money on some cro mollies for it. Due to the hassle the shop is going to press everything on for free. Just got to pull the old shafts and drop them off with the new ones.

Got my stiffners in today. Rockers tomorrow. Removing that under coating was a very miserable experience
