    wooohoo! Should be lots of awesomeness! :D

    ARB order came in today! ....too bad my compressor wasn't on it :mad: turns out its backordered for a week or two. damnit.


    heading off for the long weekend today. so i brought her in the shop and gave her a checkover and did a few things.

    balanced tires
    greased shafts
    lubed hinges
    checked fluids and such

    Noticed I've got damage to my radiator. Not leaking at ths time, I believe it has been there a while. New rad if I start to heat up this summer.

    Good times with my dog and truck..
    [​IMG]

    My thoughts exactly :D

    Got busy! Waited till the misses fell asleep and I went off to work to install le bumper. Luckily with the right tools(hoist/engine crane/air tools etc), I was able to do it myself.

    Thanks a lot! Yeah I'm lucky to have my work to do this stuff. I'm going to test the winch under load and see how it moves. Those reinforcement plstes may be in order. A question for you, what did you use those extra brackets supplied with the bumper for? I think I put them in the right spot. Lower front mounting location, then the bracket lines up with a hole in the subframe. Doesn't line up well though. It doesn't seem 100% right.

    Try putting on a 140lbs 3 hoop on alone. Used the hoist and engine crane, and practically drove the truck right into the bumper.

    Thanks dude, can't wait to try the winch tomorrow.
