    I'd be mad, too, if I was bouncing around on the washboard with no leg room.

    Which is pretty much what I'm trying to do, with saving some ridiculously expensive TC axles. Exchange is brutal for a Canadian right now...

    Took me an hour with a 8lb hammer and a brass drift on my RCVs.

    Others have told you, but having done it, I would run them until they break. Especially if you carry spares.

    This is how they were worn as well so idk how much new balls will help if the star is chewed up.

    This thing feels so bottomless. I've never felt anything like it with just a coilover in the front. So glad I got the compression adjusters. I really want to play around with the bypass tubes in the back

    On different subject, how many of you guys are running fuel cells? Something like a jeepspeed fuel cell?

    I just went through a full tank in under 200 miles which makes me believe going on camping trips would be hard as fuck considering this thing gets 9.5mpg average on the highway.

    I'm in Cali so I know it won't pass smog

    200 on the odometer. I forgot to include that my truck is not calibrated for the tires. It reads 14mph slower at highway speeds
