Awsome i can't wait till i can get it on plus i only have a 6 in ram right now so my steering is limited... I got the trail gear orbital goin to probably get the trail gear ram and mount! I have the factory pump but its drilled out and has a smaller pulley on it.

Got some work done. Ball joints done and shafts disassembled with new Spicer lifetime joints installed into inners. Just waiting on my 35 spline stubs and drive flanges to show up Monday to finish putting it together.
I also got an aux fan switch wired so I can run the fan while I wheel to keep the trans and steering cooler temps down.
Going to go mount my new winch shortly and put my synthetic cable on it.

I'm finally doing those shock hoops next weekend lol... I've been looking at how the mounts will be effected when I stretch a little for one tons.

LOL depends on how you stretch it. When I did mine I just welded the shock tabs further forward on the spring plates to make up the difference.

That's exactly what I was planning on doing whenever I get to that point.
