    Went to the workday at Uwharrie yesterday and got some wheeling in afterwards with a guy in a FJ Crusier. Had a ball, did notice my cv boot starting pissing grease and the ball joints are doing the same so gonna have to do those here soon. Any recommendations on cv boots, the ball joints are going to be oem but not sure on the boots.

    Some pics of yesterday messing around on poser rock.

    Mr T, do you have the source for the mount?

    Another thought on your clunk just came to me. On my SAWs the upper "trunnion" bolt that fastens the shock to the alloy adapter must be really tight. Tighter than one might think, it has to pinch that adapter down really hard on the hiem spacers. Just a thought.

    Finally got the bumper to fit. Such a tight fit but it came out better than I had hoped. I like how high up I got it.. Turned it into a high clearance bumper lol.
    Just got some more welding wire so now I just need to weld the rest of the body panel back together and grind it all down :D

    cost, don't have to wait for shipping.
    what's not right about using a longer line with an adapter?
