    You meant to say Gears of war right? Haha I'm on leave today at home with nothing to do. Might have to pay my old friend XB1 some attention today.

    Also I'm a huge fan of those airborne tablets. I take one every three hours when I'm sick and I swear I kick a flu or cold in 2 days or less. Taking the good tweaker desired sudafed helps too.

    That flu bug went through our house and circled back around a few time during the holidays. Its sucks. Good luck.



    You could also wash your truck or even better, go hit a trail and get it dirty!

    I have one that is sick and one that isn't, I am not sure if they are going to kill each other before lunch or not.

    Father in law gave me his old canopy. It's super sturdy and was one of the original pop up canopies before the Chinese took over the market.

    Should do wonders for the camper temps at the lake.

    So after wheeling with @JeepAndrew on the Chiva falls night run a couple weeks back I knew I needed to get rid of the exhaust crossover and cut the low hanging part of my all pro t case skid off, I managed to smash it pretty hard a couple times leaving me with this...1459788918785.jpg after more inspection I found several broken welds and the whole belly of the skid is pushed up in the center. The plate across the front of the skid that mounts to the crossmember is also tweeked pretty well and there is a small crack in the crossmember itself.1459789744363.jpg1459789944891.jpg 1459790052145.jpg1459790206937.jpg so, do I try to straighten, strengthen and re weld? Or do I just have a sweet paper weight? Anyone have any suggestions? I thought this skid was stout as fuck but maybe I was wrong. Theres no doubt in my mind that this skid saved my t case and exhaust but should I rethink this protection or maybe try a new design?

    I would recommend the Pelfreybilt 3 piece design instead. I had the AP before.

    Yea, reroute is definitely in order. I've been happy with my all pro skids so far and I picked this one up from @05Aztacoma awhile back for a good price so I'm not at a total loss but I'm thinking pelfrey going forward. Better lines, bigger tires and less beers are all things to consider going forward as well. Probably rock lights for future night runs. Lessons learned.
