The front Dana 44 in that pic looks upside down. So, im not positive but I think its HP44, and im pretty sure the cast wedges could be cut off. Not easily cut off, but not impossible lol

Nice. I have yet to see anyone's rigs running these winches so I'm anxious to see how you'll like it. I won't be putting mine on until my bumper is finished all of my bodywork/undercoating/rust repair/Monstaliner is done.

Is it possible to move the control box to the center of the winch instead of off to the side? Just wondering. I kind of like the side look though.

It depends on how long the wires are. It can be moved but on my Engo the wires were pulled way too tight when the box was centered.

Still looking for used tires to last until I can afford new. Have any of you guys ever used Remington's? There's a cheap set on Craigslist but the reviews I've read said their ok but the sidewall is weak.

Fill the jeep up with some shell gas. On my drive to work I saw a manche, which in NYC is like a unicorn, and realized I NEED one when I get a driveway lol

Installed new Accel Performance Ignition Coil. Needed to the adapter which was an extra $25. Made a big difference in throttle response!

Also got a parking ticket this morning. I forgot it was street cleaning day. $42 oopsie.

If i got a ticket just because i inconvenienced someone doing something of such little importance, I'd tell the courts to shove it up their you-know-what, pay the fine and move to another state. Just saying.
