    Okay soo from what I can tell Moab damage goes like this
    -Bent winch fairlead
    -One horn doesn't work
    -Bent belly pan skid
    -Knocked out of alignment
    -"Possible" Transmission problem(seems fine but gave me an issue in CO on way home)
    -Weird electrical issue (Ultragauge starts up like it would when first plugged in, every time I start the truck up. And my radio changes from FM to CD everytime I turn it on :notsure:

    Overall not that bad as long as the cam tabs are not bent

    ... and I calculated cost for fuel for the trip came out to $1160, thought for sure it would end up $1500

    Took the truck in for an alignment last night got there today and found out the LCA Bushings are fucked so they couldnt get it in spec, so since its there i told them to qoute to replace bushings and to qoute replacing the entire LCA assembly to save on labor. I guess I find out tomorrow

    I'd try and do em yourself man. Just full LCAs. Don't let a shop just replace bushings. Even jace doesn't fuck with em.

    Like 2-300 in parts. And a day of wrenching. Call up your PA pals to help ya out :p

    So I guess some beer out if pocket too..:p

    You can do EETT!!

    The bushings were so seized that They destroyed the cam bolt when they tried to align it the first time so the truck is immobilized at there shop so I'm sorta stick with them doing it
