Yeah I was pissed. I called a couple times before they even sent them out. Good quality other than their mounting plates being plasma cut. Figured they would be laser cut by now. Overall i'm happy with it though

Picked this up. Tomorrow i'm going to start cutting to make room for the tires and start rear shock hoops.

Once I get the trac bar bracket everything should come together a little faster I hope.

Trac bar bracket
Rear shock mounts
Hydro assist cylinder mounts
Steering cooler
Shorten front drive shaft
Mount front bumper and winch
Mount a pillar light brackets and lights
Make rear tube bumper
Weld beadlocks
Wait on stuff to come back from powder coat

seems like a lot but mostly small stuff left.
