don't need it.. My 3 link uses drivers side drop so I'm cutting the passenger upper link off to make room for the truss and move the panhard mount further out closer to the coil bucket so my panhard bar ll be little more longer.

I replaced the damaged hood light with a Mopar model I got from eBay for under 10 bucks. No more fiddling in the dark while juggling a flashlight. I know there are better options (like LED lights) but I went for the cheapest as I hardly open that hood in the dark. Nice to have just in case, though.

New fill of T6 in the old bird. Gotta try to snag a few pumps of the grease gun on the driveshafts soon, too.

Just replace the stock bulb with the corresponding LED one, best of both worlds

Trimmed the fenders, and drove around the yard to test the new brakes. Still waiting on my rear drive shaft to show up, so drove around in 4Hi
