I wont be able to make Saturday (sucks, I love running Forest Lake), but I should be at the Chevron Sunday at 10:00 for Mineral basin. Damn, that reminds me, I forgot to snag some cash for the entrance fee. Add one more thing to the to-do list tommorow. I'm looking forward to getting out and wheeling with some of the crew, its been a tough summer, too many things have been getting in the way of getting out and playing.

That looks absolutely killer on your rig, no offense to Cory, but it looks 100% better black.

When you do some new mud flaps, do some version of a cotter pin disconnect - it'll be worth every moment of work it takes to set it up It's like Tipper Gore says, "All mudflaps get destroyed when you go rock crawling with them on." At least I think that was her...

^^^^^Yes.
Definately a Tipper Gore quote, I believe she brought it up during her hubby's presidential run.
For the record Ryans were a pin style quick disconnect, I'm guessing the excitement of getting on the trail must have been their undoing.

thanks for the compliments on the bumper I am definatly happy with it.

one question... I have the np242 transfercase, the H&T SYE flange it starting to get loose on my output shaft. its not the bolt or threads the plate its self is getting play in the splines. is it worth getting a NP231 transfer case and doing a true SYE or should i get another flage for $100? any opinions?

If you have the money do a 231 with a True SYE and a 4:1 kit while your at it....with your Hack and Tap can you use a front driveshaft as a spare??? Ive heard rumor's about that and that would be a pretty sweet 2 bird's with one spare part!!!
And yes your bumper looks killer!!!

There was a NP231 on KSL a day or two ago for around $200 if that helps.
