    I've noticed that every pic I've seen of the LBJ fail has always been on the driver side. I wanna say I've seen at least 10 different pictures posted on here and they've all been on the driver side. I've yet to see a passenger side go out. I'm sure other have probably seen a passenger side go out, but why does it seem to happen more on the driver side? Is it due to the slight extra weight on that side?

    I am sure the extra weight of the 35s didn't help. But not main cause.

    Dammit! I gently tossed a package of skid plates (120 lbs) on my tailgate and broke my tailgate straps. Now I have a nice crease along the outside where it hit the bumper.

    I'm pissed at myself because I almost bought new ones a couple weeks ago, but I was leaving on vacation and wouldn't be home to receive them. So I guess this is what I get when I get home.
