    Looks good! What rack are you running and how close is the tie rod to the coil?

    Let it dry out then try tapping the alternator case with a hammer or something hard. Lots of times when you do mud, the inside of the alternator gets caked and wont produce juice for the battery. A tap on the outside will some times break that stuff loose so the alternator can function properly again. If that doesn't work its probably the alternator. Mud kills alternators on lots of vehicles.

    Nope. I gotta replace the one inside the house so that I can have the old one available outside for my dryrot crew that's coming over. And they only get one square each!

    I’m using this inner tube and it works well enough. It lasted a couple months before it made a small tear but it’s so cheap and easy to replace that I don’t mind. I tried a shock boot but that tore too and was more expensive.
