    Wow.
    Awesome.
    I've never seen anything like this thread. The welding and fab work is top notch.
    And the end result speaks volumes.
    Well done OP!

    So I took the truck out to Pismo again for a buddies birthday.

    The revalve I did before the trip made a big difference but it still not where I want it to be at yet.

    Was having a blast in the dunes then bang!

    So that led to a couple hours trying to get out of the back of the dunes due to our group but we did it and had a blast doing it at the same time. @Happysmiley old 4Runner saved the day on that one with having v8 power.
    Had to call the chase truck for ride back home. Gotta love aaa

    So now my plan is to finish the bumper and skid plate, paint it finally, do another shock revalve, and of course fix the driveline. Anyone have any ideas on a stronger fix? I know the 4x4 version of these trucks use a cv joint up there. I'm starting t wonder if the driveline shop screwed up the yoke when I had them rebuild it. Looking closely at the yoke it has had a grinder taken to it and there was also a flat spot on it too like it was pressed wrong. Part of it had been cracked too because there was some rust in there.
