    Did some searching, but didn't come up with much... Any idea where to get a rear driveshaft boot for a 2nd Gen? I managed to tear mine today when I accidentally rotated my axle too much during rear leaf install and the drivesahft fell out.

    Hmm, so I'm not sure what to think about New Mexico... I think I'm just too tired to comprehend things correctly haha

    Get some sleep. Sort it out in the morning. No, you are not on Mars, nor the Moon.

    Haha I start class at 7:30. Hopefully we'll get out at a reasonable time and I can go explore the area. I drove through the Lincoln National Forest, beautiful! I'll probably go up to Cloudcroft this weekend and explore.

    I don't like the major elevation change though, I have chest pains right now...

    I'm stationed at Whiteman AFB, MO but I'm TDY at Holloman for 4-5 months.

    Might want to get checked over at the clinic.

    Otherwise, a good night's sleep will help.

    Heh. you're only at 4k feet. My apartment is at 6k. Top of the Sandias here in ABQ is at 10k. Even more fun is going up into Colorado and some of the mountain passes are at 12k. Beautiful and dizzying views.

    Cloudy, I may need some fab help. Still working out a mounting scheme for the ARB compressor. Might need a small slab of steel welded to the cruise control bracket I'm attempting to convert.

    Chest pains happen when your not use to the elevation. I had them when I came here from florida and im like 23 feet below sea level. Every one in Clovis at the base complain about the elevation and say they have chest pains. its a norm.

    Turqoise trail.

    eh, shit. NVM. I guess the road to the top of the Sandias is closed as of Jun 10. Maybe we'll get awesome rain and they'll open it back up.

    I'm not a medical professional. People say chest pain and I don't screw around.
    I've done a lot of traveling at various elevations and never experienced chest pains so can't speak from experience.

    From what I see at my base just hit the clinic up and they'll figure it out.
