Road grime, moisture, sand, salt, mud, ect. All things that get stuck inside the boot and will kill the shock.

Installed new RE u bolts, fixed my leaf spring center pin the correct way, swapped yokes on my 8.25 and moved the pinion guard thing to the one I'm running now, finished my frame supports for my sliders for now, painted my sliders, installed new .75 leveling spacers (yay for long arms, no work at all), installed Detours A pillar light brackets and Olympus pods.

Busy day.



All I have for now lol
