    I think it's vehicle specific. But it'll work.

    More shit then I ever planned on doing
    I actually paid about $20 more for mine. @Overlanerd i can give you the actual part number when I get home.

    Edit
    If anyone does buy one of these I would leave the USB cable hooked to it and coil it up under the dash so if you ever have to re calibrate you don't have to take the dash apart to get to it :anonymous:

    Stock nuts are used, but there should be an additional brace that goes behind the bumper as well. Can take pics later if needed

    Thanks guys! Good idea on the USB cable.

    Since my speedometer now shows that I'm going faster than I am, 40's would also correct my mileage.

    Just need to remove the doors, move the body mount, trim the bumper, cut the sliders, trim the frame, 2+ TC LT kit, carry 5 spare cv's, a bit of sheet metal work, empty the savings account, and get a divorce.

    Maybe $229 ain't so bad...

    Pretty pissed right now. Ordered Daisy's arthritis meds a few days ago. Went to pick em up and they wouldn't give em to me. Said I needed blood work done. I'm like wtf she's been on these pills for 60 days and missed the last two. GIMME THE MEDS! Started raising a stink and wanted to talk to the vet. Out to lunch. Right. So I gotta spend $93 just so they can tell me I can spend $111 on the pills :mad:

    Dude vets have become the biggest racket around. They are a bunch of money hungry pricks that take advantage of people's affections toward animals. Since when is it more expensive to take your dog to the vet then it is a person to go see a physician. Dirty pricks!

    I like how "get a divorce" is at the end. That way there's no money left for her to take. Smart man :cheers:

    in my auto its a huge difference 4:56 better power but you cant go over 70 with out high rpms and burning a ton of gas. im on my spare diff right now (3:73s)and I miss the 4:56. although its nice going 80 on the freeway again, but its seriously lacking power. and at 55 it wants to down shift on flat ground. I wouldn't go less then 4:56 if your paying for a re gear but I drive an AT

    Had the opportunity to see these before the kickstarter launched today. I'm sure the videos will come out soon, but it's primary use is as a deadman anchor if nothing else is around you to anchor to. Yes, you'll have to dig but its a whole lot better than nothing. Doubles as a rock and tree saver also.
