    Anyone up near Antigo need an OG TRD skid? Not mine, found while searching for Danger Boy's cap.

    So. Many. Stickers.
    Lol I see you left the shocks in. Should have unbolted those.

    You didn't use a table jack or a transmission jack or a even just a floor jack to hold them up?

    I have to drop my entire skid, as well. Not a big deal. The front skid is custom, so it would have been pretty expensive to have an access panel put in.

    There is a jack under the pumpkin. The shocks didn't need to come out and that top bolt is a PIA!

    Done! Hammer Hangers are in and the new springs are too. had to use some special tools to get those long Alcan's to fit. Sit is ass high... hoping this settles down some with a few miles. If not them I go with a three inch up front... Shocks need to go they are the current limit strap in the system... springs drop at least two inches beyond where the shocks say nope. Seems to ride fine-I thought it would be a lot stiffer, but seems fine. Looking forward to hooking up my trailer and seeing what that is like... bet it is much better!
