For anyone keeping up with my misadventures heres an update. I bought a hydraulic ram from harbor freight and tied it to a tree to straighten the body along with a small ratchet to make small tweaks to it. I also got my arb bumper bent back to better shape by tying the tube to a tree and hitting reverse.

I rebuilt the suspension and took it to get aligned but the wheel is 2" back. Guy told me my spindle is bent so I'm getting new ones and I'm gonna weld some totals chaos gussets to them. With the new spindle/ steering knuckle every suspension component in the passenger side will be replaced lols.

I think I might have bent the lower control arm mounts so if the new spindle doesn't align the wheel I'll take it to a frame shop to see what needs to be done.

I'm out of money with the reduced hours at work and all the expenses so next month I'll be sending out my kings with the external reservoir to rebuild so I don't look like a poser with fiberglass fenders and el cheap-o shocks lol

Bunch of Basic Taco mods.

Since this nonsense started I’ve been working remotely from a home office, so my projects are confined to the weekends.

-New tires, Cooper AT3 4S’s in 265/75r16
-Diode Dynamics Selective Yellow fog lights
-Bought and installed a used OEM roof rack
-Sanded and repainted cross bars on rack
-pulled every rusty bolt out of my bed, wire brushed, VHT Rust Converter, three coats of flat black

Next up is trying my hand at making kydex knife sheaths for a custom project a bladesmith friend of mine made for me.

Now looking for more projects, preferably of the free or cheap variety.

Bought meat on sale! We ground all of our venison this year, so we don't have a lot of other meat at our house at the moment.

Smoked a ham, turkey breast and pork butt. Vacuum sealing most of it.

We planted 2 gardens this weekend, too.

Thanks man! I appreciate it. Been a fun little project. The kids love it. Can’t go to the park so bringing the park to the house haha.

Good luck with your refurbishing project. Your 1 year old will appreciate it!
