Took the transfer case out and took it apart. Everything is in good shape except for the shift fork pads. Picking them up tomorrow, parts store was closed by the time I saw they were bad. Then it should be a quick put together

I'm really happy with the product and the price. The guys did an awesome job and it's a prestige system. I needed the alarm and I got the remote start because I hate gettin in a cold car in the winter. I've done some pretty complicated wiring and no way will I ever install one of these. Not because I don't think I can do it, but because I really have no desire to do it because I know I will go crazy by the time I'm done. Underneath my dash there are probably 30 wires there. It's a fairly complex system. It has codes that it tells you with the led and with how many times it honks/chirps when you lock and unlock it. Like I said, I'm really satisfied and I feel I got my money's worth and that's what matters to me. The guys at the shop took like 6-7 hours to install it

They won't even let you drive into the yard.
That sucks man. I haven't found one here yet that won't let you drive into the yard and the smallest one we have here (within a reasonable driving distance) is about 35 acres and not any place you'd want to take a 2wd car.

There isn't anywhere around here that'll let you drive in the yard. Just ain't gonna happen.

Tar? i know im a tar heel but not that bad. lol. naw, its bedliner. paint on the roof was crap when i bought it plus it was starting to rust. so i put 3 coats of duplicolor with kevlar on there. and yes it was there last time you saw it. it's just hard to notice when its clean. i like it, all the trails around here have very low hanging branches so its nice not having to hear the paint being scratched on the roof.
