Winterfest2017 Pictures Days 2 & 3
This MJ was gorgeous.
Flexing on some 38s
Ignore the orange peels
Couldn't even make the entrance to this rock garden last Winterfest. With some good spotting and those lockers I was able to finish it
Group shot! (Minus me of course)
Got new ball joints, but my dumbass forgot the rent a press. So we literally beat them using a hammer, a socket, and the jack. Not proper by any means.
Right when I fixed mine Jon decided to break his driver shaft on the same obstical. 4 of use broke driver shafts that weekend, all on the last day.
Bub drove Brandon's jeep.
Things got ignorant
*Insert AresFab add here*
Time to go

We had a nice week of weather, only to get hit with 6" of snow randomly in early March, then back to 60° not 2 days later.
Added the broken shaft to my pile of things I've broken. My H.D. Offroad no-lift shackle relocation boxes arrived the other day. And my 1.5" Boostwerks shackles are being processed right now.
I'll have the new lift components ready soon, still need to do an SYE with a new rear driveshaft, but I won't know the measurements until the new coils and shackles are in. Will be throwing some new meat underneath too.
As for long arms, I've been bouncing around a few different companies, but I'm going to settle with more of a custom set.

Definitely! It's awesome with all the different rigs.
I'll let you know when they're up for grabs, it'll probably be a few months. Buying from my buddy, and at the same time I'm also trying to get him a deal on some new ones, but they're on back order for a month. And expensive lol.
