    I agree. I have the coaxial cable already routed but I am waiting to do the lights and switch so I only have to tear apart the dash once.

    Well done!
    Do it in front of a cop again! Lol
    You sure you're an asshole kid? You don't apologize after giving someone shit! :smack:
    Its the opposite where I live. I think they believe I'm what we call a flatlander. In the span of a month of flown past a sheriff and 2 CHP going way over speed limit and they didn't do anything

    I need to start being more careful :anonymous:
    @MuricaTaco :thumbsup:

    Don't drive it like that. That's nasty..it's not supposed to come out that seal. I'd pull the DS, clean and re grease it. You can just take the zero out and that will allow the excess out(messy).
    Ujoints can be pumped like that but not the slip yoke. It isn't designed to purge that way.

    Got the full belly skids on Maricela courtesy of RCI Metalworks. I went with 1/4" aluminum over steel to save weight and match the intended use of my truck.

    Need to do that myself! But I'll opt for steel since I use it as a jack point.

    I've read just to disconnect brake line braces and sway bar, then just drop the axle. I'll have a compressor.
