    Went out & got more bolts today. After dinner I was able to get the cab rack rails drilled and then assembled the thing.
    I'll get it on the roof tomorrow hopefully. :eek:

    Thx for the heads up - sorry we missed you this morning. :eek:

    Was a productive day though - wrapped up all the fab work in my current batch and even did a Grillcraft insert install for littles. :D

    Nope - never took them off.

    I started with a few on the back doors then added the big TOYWERX ones & filled it the rest.

    I want not 100% sure if I liked it but once I had them from wheel well to wheel well I decided to keep them.

    Made a decision today: before the next wheeling trip in Va on 10/3 I'm going to get new tires. I would like to get the 36x13.5x17 interco iroks but that would set me back like $1700 or so. I've got a brand new Nitto 35x12.5x17 on my tire gate so if I go get 3 more it will be around $1000 all said & done.
    Going with the interco's I'd need 5 and the brand new Nitto would be useless.
    My other 4 are at less than 1/3 tread life now but one of them will do fine as a spare.
    I'll run the 35's through winter and then next March/April step up to them.

    Someone will get a good deal on 8 Nitto's at that point! :D

    This is on deck for this coming weekend:

    Should have done this before when Jerry & I rebuilt the suspension but hindsight's 20/20 right? :eek:
