    Anyone seen my wallet?
    Ive seen 4footers in action and its pretty underwhelming, 6 def seems like a better option. What happened to the foxwing orwhatever it was idea?

    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    A 4ft fits perfectly off the back of a Prinsu and is great for covering the back for cooking and such.

    6Ft would work for the side as would an 8ft as it should cover from the back of the prinsu to past the rear doors. The foxwing is still a possibility, just a good chunk of change for it. So thought about just doing an ARB as it would be easier to setup and take down instead of having the foxwing setup.

    Little fun fact, I saw @Jamart5 on Tuesday and he actually called @MellyMel Mallymel... he had to stop and correct himself. Ok carry on in this thread now.

    Not much going on this weekend, rock climbing tomorrow, then I think some family is coming to Tyler for a little bit. Got a couple things to do around the house.

    And get ready to go camping next weekend.

    After lunch I'm going to install some extended brake lines and flush all of the existing brake fluid that I have, then I'll get all the parts and tools together for the front end suspension overhaul tomorrow.

    I also need to get ready to camp next weekend!

    Well, that was some bullshit. Rear brake lines are done and front passenger side is done. Driver side broke before I got it tight. :annoyed:

    I was sent lines with fittings that didn't fit into the mounting brackets so I had to finagle them a bit too. A simple two hour job turned double that and I wound up needing to pick up more brake fluid during the process. At least all the speed bleeders are in and all the old fluid is flushed. I hope the other three new lines last...

    At this rate I don't really feel like messing with the front suspension tomorrow. To quote one (actually 2) of the greatest movies of all time, "I picked a helluva day to quit drinking." :drunk:
