Well thanks to all those that voted for me in the RuffStuff Contest.

unidentifiedbomb took the grand prize but I'll settle for second.

The $50 was enough to fund my shock relocation project.
Plans are to raise the shocks flush with the axle tube then angle them in more like the JKS relocation kit does.

I'll also be doing some exhaust work when I start the project.

Be like me and make towers. I'm going to use F250 towers and the shocks will mount to the u bolt plate. More angle equals worse performance.

I contemplated towers however, I'm just wanting to keep it simple for now.

Well I unfortunately don't have any picture updates due to drowning my phone in the washing machine when we got back from the last trip.
However, the Jeep did good aside from it was way overloaded plus on 37s.

I'm going to try and squeeze a few more ponies out before I regear again by dropping in some bigger injectors.
I have a set of 703s 22.6lbs but I got a deal on some "12554271 25.5lbs" so figured why not try them out, both sets are 4 holes.
