Yeah I do, I haven't punctured a tire or anything. But the tread is tore off in some places and stuff like that.

Thanks, a local parts house has a "special" on them. $2 more than the Mobil1's regular price.

What was wrong with the monstaliner?

It's shizzy I hated it. Both times I've used it, it never lasted longer than 5 months. Spray can Bedliner is better than that stuff lol

The other day I did an oil change to rotella t5 10-30w with a wix 51515 oversized filter. Attempted to change the shocks, they actually came out smooth. I did soak the bolts in pb a couple of times. The only issue I ran into was the fact I ordered too short of bilsteins. This lead me to realize I really have around a 4" lift despite the fact the po told me it was a 3"... now I have to go through the hassle of returning the shocks and getting the right ones.

Got around to fixing my broken hinge on passenger side. Also cut hinges to make door removable. Now just have to do the rest!

One of the pieces I welded in.

Just realized I didn't take an after shot! Haha

Holy ****ing ****. Front leaf spring bolts working solo with no lift, no heat, and no cutting tools...

The D44 is out after 5 1/2 hours. I'm so done for the day.
