    Maybe they improved it for second gens? All I know is that I will get around to it eventually. I have had the union sitting in my drawer for months

    Yes.
    I'm more likely to bottom out on rocks, than have to pivot against a tree. :)

    I would go with sliders and then skids. You have factory skids at least already

    Funny thing. Your sliders make more contact than your skids. Thing I learned at Jambo is your either close to the wall or off camber and your rocker is closer to the rocks than your belly is.
    congrats!!!

    Matthew - if you get the right sized hosing it's an easy 20min job. Or if you have hose that's too small and you're stubborn like me to think it's just a 'snug fit' - it could take 2 hrs.

    In other news, my sliders are at Fastnal. Picking those up tomorrow morning as I got home too late from work to get them today. Plan to at least get them scrubbed down and primed tomorrow.

    I bought 1/4" fuel line from O'Rileys - and spent probably 45mins trying to get it to fit on the union once I had installed it on the diff. Finally gave up, went back to O'Rileys, got there, tried putting the breather end on the now very heavily worked end I had been trying to install on the union, and it fit, so I figured I just needed more elbow grease, so went back home, tried it some more, got it about half way on, then cut and tried the breather end, wasn't even close to going on - so cut the zip ties, went BACK to O'Rileys a second time, got 5/16" fuel line, finished the job in 15mins once I got home.
