    i hear there are some real hidden gems in Mezcal but I don’t even know where to start. How did you pick that one? Or have any other favorites?

    This is the only one I’ve had in a very long time.
    My roommate gave it to me for helping With a tree he cut down that almost fell on the neighbors fence, propane tank and shed. We used the winch on my truck to RE-direct it around another tree and then winched until the offending tree snapped off near the top.
    It was a smaller Douglass fir maybe 8 inches in diameter at the base.

    Toast them today... honor the sacrifice every other day. It’s up to each of us to be worthy of it. The promise of our country lies in each of us.

    Yeah when I installed my AAL I dropped the diff that same bolt caught the plastic gas tank skid on the way down. I’ll check too see if I hit the actual tank tho.

    It may be because your Diff is so big compared to second gens?

    Hahaha...that's a good one. Rear diff is slightly bigger(8.75 vs. 8.5) than second gen. So, I got under the truck and loosened up straps holding the tank and pushed the tank forward as much as I could. Let's see if this makes any difference. Quarter of an inch is all I needed (Said no girl ever).

    RAAAH! Fly our Flag proudly and remember our Hero's! Thankfully I didn't lose any of my close brothers. But some of my buddies in different units and branches did. Today is not about bbq'ing for them, but a day of rememberance. Cheers to our boys who didn't make it home. God speed!
