    A bunch a cool stickers, a bada ass MetalMiller Tx Longhorns grill emblem painted Hemi Orange, JBA long tube headers with o2 sims, Diff breather mod, Red LED interior lights, Fancy head unit that plays ipod n movies, Also DIY install factory stuff like, factory cruise control, factory intermittent wipers, OME nitro struts with 886x springs and toy tec top plate, JBA high caster UCA's for better alignmnet and dey beefier too, Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs in da rear with the gear, U bolt flipper, Ivan Stewart TRD rims with 33" K Bro 2's, some bad ass weather tech floor liners so I don't muck up my interior, an ATO shackle flipper for mo travel in da rear wit the gear, also super shiny Fox 2.0 shocks back there too, all sorts of steal armor for bouncing off of the rocks like demello sliders, AP front skid, trans skid, n transfer skid, demello gas tank skid, and a tough as nails ARB bumper with warn 8k winch, I'm sure there's more
    4.56 and I got power back driving the hill country. I need to buy a few more tools and make some tools as well to make the job easier, but other than that, the process went well. The Detroit TruTrac I put in the rear was a good decision for me as well.

    Yea
    But I did give supervisor a heads up a month ago when I applied. I’m on call next week so they won’t fire me,maybe. He’s asked almost daily if I had heard anything.

    In my trade I’ve found out over the years you either have pay or benefits. Haven’t seen both. Was in a union shop here long ago but wasn’t worth having to watch your back constantly

    It helped me get this place and was about it. Now we’re fast tracking our plans to move so it’ll cut drive in half

    7:30 to 4:30 Coffee is doing nothing for me. I just want to go home and do an oil change. Now that is fun.

    No, I've never owned a 2wd truck at all. I've always had 4wd's and my current ones are what's in my sig minus the 82

    Thanks man. I'm hoping to replace it with a bender. Then I can hopefully start making myself sliders and racks and whatnot. Maybe even make a few things on the side etc.

    Happy Sunday everyone. My big plans of doing my suspension this morning have been thwarted. Got the garage cleaned out enough to have space to work. But it seems my hydraulic lift doesn't go high enough :facepalm:

    Unless someone has a better suggestion it looks like I'll be getting a Hi-Lift this week. Might as well I suppose. I guess I should have one with a lifted truck anyway
