No I haven't, I don't know of any local places that would order me a XRC Bumper for a decent price, and I vow to never go to Trick Trucks again.
I just got them for 499.98 from quadratec for the bumper and bullbar.
Was about to buy Crosby Shackles from them but he told me that they will be chipped because they ship them in a bag, no protection so they just bang against eachother. I wonder if I call Crosby they can ship them to me in a protective box.

Debating on staying sway bar less or not, haven't really noticed it being gone, I just drive nice and easy. Though justin did go through the trouble to make the discos so why not I guess?

I'm still having issues with overheating, I can sit at idle with the defroster blowing and the electric fan on.
System is properly filled with fluid
Missing my mechanical fan shroud
Mopar 195 thermostat
Water pump has less then 200 miles on it
Need to do hood vents(just to lower umderhood temps)

Thank you. They WILL extend the life of rubber and plastic parts by keeping ambient temps down, and will help with heat soak. Coolant temp...not so much.

By the way, this may sound very stupid but how do you guys calculate your MPG? I hear of people saying they get 17MPG, I don't see how thats possible as I believe i'm only getting 9-10. Do you guys run it to empty, fill it up and run it back down to Empty? Or is there a better/cheaper way.

Never really thought of this route but my Jeep is also my Daily Driver and not saying that a fab job won't look good but, a machine weld is alot nicer. Plus by the time I get someone to fab, get it powder coated etc I'm looking at the same/more money to get done.
