    You get any of the cans or rack stuff figured out? And were you able to use those mounts I gave you?

    I am thinking about getting my coilovers and UCA's around Christmas time and then the leafs and rear shocks (and HC rear) in July or so. I may need to humbly ask for your help again :rolleyes:

    Sweet, I'm glad someone could capitalize on those things. You thinking about getting Frontrunner to do two seperate racks or one that runs the full length of the cab / shell continuously? And have you read up on mounting the cans on the roof (I think I remember someone saying that it should be a no-go) or you thinking the bed for mounting?

    I'm about 95% sure I'll eventually go with the Baja Rack. (non-OEM rack compatible) (Probably in a year or two) I'll be using it for stuff like mounting the TJM TRED's I'm also eventually getting.

    Do you have cutting wheels for that time of thing? I definitely wouldn't mind buying an extra or two for you if they get eaten up with cutting bedside type materials.

    I am planning on never getting rid of this truck, at least not in the next ten years.

    And I didn't even think of stuff like the bolded above. :anonymous: I do go into parking garages...then again, I have seen full sizes in the garages I've been in, so I shouldn't (key word being should) have a problem.

    If I don't fit, then I'll go mall crawl somewhere else :D

    Why not go with the die hard platinum. It is literally a rebranded odyssey.

    I'm going to pick up a 25 and 35 ( reversed terminals to avoid the 'x') whenever I get around to mine. I'd love to get a Spod I just need way more than 6 slots and two of those things doesn't seem like a viable option.

    You said you didn't put on any CB drop or shims with the Expo's right? Does it come with longer center pins or would I need anything else other than the actual leaf pack?

    We didn't trim the U-bolts on my flip kit when we put it on, so I think I'm good in that department. That's good to hear about the other things. I'd rather not mess with them if I don't have to.

    Do you get any vibes from the rear though?

    Some Goodies. And the shipping dissapointment. I like to scratch my things. Just some friction from them tossing around my cans. Rubbed the paint right off the side. Oh well, shit happens.

    Start playing this and then browse.

    Looking sharp...did you say you were going to mount the jerry cans in the bed or just until you have a HC rear or what?

    Excited to see the Frontrunners get put on... :popcorn:
