    I remember this story. I'm glad they took care of you. :thumbsup: Don't let it scare you to get out there. Shit happens in the dirt, just be smart and use your resources.

    Been busy as hell but no complaints. Rather that than the opposite. Doing big things to the truck now. It's well beyond time.

    Working on some good trips over the summer. :bikewhoops:

    I haven't seen that setup before. Definitely gonna be strong as fawk!!
    Yeah busy is good for sure, between the construction projects I have going plus a shitload of Toyota truck stuff I cannot complain.

    What else are you doing to the rig besides that, are you also doing the Tundra rack?

    Im prepping my off-roader as well. Im currently searching for some Dana 60 axles so I can start re-building the drivetrain on the Spider Jeep. Going to do a stretch to get the tires at the corners for better approach and departure angles and also gonna add some bypasses to the coilovers.
    Also gonna swap in an LS motor as well, should be a lot of fun. Id rather build the Jeep than buy a side by side since it is street legal and has A/C!

    It's the newer JD Fab LCA relocation kit. Hopefully removing the cancer that cause me not to get a decent alignment before and beefing everything up while in the process.

    A lot. Haha. Doing this kit install, adding coil bucket gussets since I found some cracking at the welds, re-cycling the rear suspension and trying to pinch out some more up-travel, and adding some hydro bumps to the rear. Also trussing the rear axle because why not, I'm already in there. ECGS rebult my rear diff under warranty as I had some howling coming from the rear. The list goes on per usual.

    Doing great Jason! The CMC you did on my rig has impressed a few, but more importantly, impressed my bride, MaryAnn! She says you can work on my rig anytime. :)

    Ouch, glad to see it hasn't put you out completely! Can't say enough about your quick tie rod replacement you did on my truck, just in time for a big road trip. Hope you're doing well brotha

    ugh. What I would do for a garage.
    Seeing all your mods makes me feel jealous.
    I wish I had a safe place to do my mods without worrying of getting run over.

    Yep. My truck won't fit in mine either :annoyed:. Taco's are "small" Big trucks. Almost as big as a last model Tundra's.
