    I have some friends moving on saturday. let's do sunday again. Your shop? That way we aren't SOL if it rains :) I'll bring my tools! And be sure to bring the grinder this time just in case :p


    Bring it on by! I have the extra long extension that makes the spark plugs easier :)

    Sunday can work. I have one garage space that could be available there if we need to use it. Mind starting early? I'm going to have my baby girl around 3 or 4 I think, so I'd have to skip out by then. If its just us 2, I think it can go alright. Didn't realize before we were just bolting on complete sets.

    Both are correct, most trails will start to get crowded. At least up in that region. We do need to figure something out though. I want to tear some crap up with my runner

    is anyone willing to swap taillights? i pulled a noob move and bought an after market tail light. to the untrained eye, it looks exactly the same. unfortunately i can see that the right turn signal is a bit lighter than the other OEM tail light.

    No meets planned currently, sorry I've been out of it a while guys, been crazy busy this summer not to mention wrenching on my own truck. Sounds like ill be building the whole thing the first week of next month and then fine tuning it when I get back from hunting.

    Deposit first to cover materials, then the rest when it's done. I think everyone's paid up now and we're getting ready to ship. We'll need a bit more for the crate billy has to build. I may try and salvage some wood off it this time.

    Right on. I'm feeling a bit left out. I should have just hopped on the bandwagon and got myself a new bumper. Didn't have the cash to spare at the time though. Oh well.
