    Ya I can't wait. I have had a few trips were I have wished I had sliders, there have been a few close calls. The flex should be amazing on the trail, compared to the previous shocks.

    Ya my buddies girlfriend has spring break then so that is why we are going. Then I am going to head down for rock therapy in may. Lol

    Yes I took the pics while filling up at the gas station. It took a while to wash the truck and I was running out of day light. The way that I look at is that, these pics are better then no pics. lol

    That's the gas station where I always fill up.

    And it's apropos that you're pumping gas into the truck while showing off pics off all the armor you've put on it. :eek:

    Well that is kinda funny, but I had a feeling you filled up around here some where. I am actually young Brett's roommate. So I kinda had an idea where you lived. lol

    Ya I thought it was kinda funny. Ya that armor takes a little millage off the truck but it is worth it in my opinion. It helps with the look that I want out of the truck.

    Well I felt pretty accomplished today, got a few things done that I have been meaning to.

    First I cranked my coils up about a 1/4 in to fix the settling I had from putting my bumper, skid plates and sliders on.

    Before

    After
    [​IMG]

    Now the rake is not huge and it looks a lot better.

    The last thing I got done was mount my rotopax, fire extinguisher, and eyelets to my tool/parts box.

    I would have got the truck waxed today but I helped my buddy go get some leaf pack so he could build a set and the temperature did not want to stay consistent.

    Well I just did the second vehicle mod today. Hopefully I can keep a lot of my work miles off the truck and have some better mileage out of this car.

    Well today was another good day for my truck. I ended up having to run down to 4wheel parts today to pick up some gears for a buddy and saw that they got some smittybuilt 10000 lb winches in. I had ordered one about a month ago, so finally got mine. :D

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]
    comes with 100' of synthetic line and wireless or wired remote. (sorry for the pic being upside down flicker decided to rotate it but when i download it, it is right side up)

    While I was there I decided I needed to finally get some weather tech floor mats, because the stock ones suck.

    Now I am just waiting on my recovery kit that did not get delivered yesterday because part of my address was missing on the shipping label but will be here on Monday. But saddly I will be out of town for work that day.:(
