    Sounds good, do you still have the cut off tool that you used to do yours? All I have is little die grinder

    I used a 4" cut off wheel on my cut off tool. But I need that for my metal project I am working on.

    I'm sure I can just buy a cut off wheel for my die grinder and make it work. How long did it take you to do all four of your fenders?

    Took me all day Saturday and part of Sunday. But I had to glue/weld a bunch of the fender tabs after I removed them because they ripped away from the fender. So go easy on that part for sure. Then I also primed the sheet metal I cut and then painted it black. So there was down time while shit dried. I think some beers were drunk in there too!

    So I did a little bit of research trying to find out the weight of my big stupid front bumper and it looks like the bumper plus my winch with the steel cable is probably somewhere around 200 pounds :eek::eek:

    @thefatkid I went out wheeling The t-33 plane crash on Saturday and now I have that same alignment issue that I had last time I came to you where my steering wheel is to the left and the truck pulls to the right. Do you have any idea what could be shifting that I keep getting the same issue?

    That could be an issue with the rack itself.

    The pull to the right makes me think something is shifting. Like one of your cam bolts is stretched or the threads are galled not allowing proper torque. Or it could even be the SPC arm, though I torqued the shit out of that guy.

    Alright, well next time you're free I need another alignment and hopefully we can get it figured out. I remember you putting extra torque on those SPCs but if I need to spend the extra money for total chaos uppers then so be it

    I would look at @Gramps setup for upper arms. Better than what TC offers in my opinion. Rokmen has a lot of cool features and they are local.

    That is what is going on my 4th gen 4runner when the money is right.
