Either that or when you finish up a mod or a repair and get the tires back on and lower it back down only to realize you forgot to do something like 10 steps back.

Oh and my favorite, when you add a mod and then take it for a test drive only to realize that you now need something else done for it to function correctly :face palm:

I'm thinking 529 @ hw6 which is about 15-20 miles from me but that should be good for everyone north of i10 since that's where the majority is

so DailyDriven, you are totally right. i had the t-case mounted everything ready to go, & i get ready to drill & tap the shaft......finally found out one of the reasons they have you do a hack & tap instead of just the tap.....that hardened steel shaft is a PITA to get through. so now i have a seal flange kit on order from iro so i can hack & tap it. should be here this week. so i won't be able to drive it until next week i'm sure (or the weekend at the earliest) shoulda known, lol

i heard you could use grade 8 bolts, i forget what size. that's why people take the doors off before they cut em, and pop out that pin to flip it (i think)

I live in Montgomery and although I wouldn't mind meeting up where ever my suggestion would be to meet at County Line on Lake Conroe on a Friday night. They have live bands during the summer and then do some night wheeling at General Sams. Or something like that, get the best of both worlds....hanging out and wheeling. My two cents
