Today I was almost able to pull the head, but decided to wait to first get the old manifold disconnect from the exhaust. I'm going to replace the exhaust header while I'm this deep in the motor. I was very surprised and happy to see no sludge, I thought it was pretty good for a motor with close to 250k miles on her. Later tonight ill pull the head so tomorrow I can change the valve seals and clean everything up.

I love them, great road manners and no issues yet offroad. Air down to 20 PSI and they do awesome.
I was due, last time I went I didn't get any. First time I went I got this raspberry.

I would like to build some sliders for it. I need to get a better welder, though...

Well, didn't get everything finished like I'd hoped I would. Two of the nutsert holes on the passenger side don't line up. My drilled holes in the tank skid on both sides don't line up, so the passenger side of the hitch is only held on by one bolt right now
Everything seems to hold tight for the time being, just can't tow with it like this, haha. Driving around tomorrow without a rear bumper 
Here it is all taken apart.
