    OME 3" lift with Dakar rear leaves and 883 front coils. 36x12.50 Super Swamper TSL/SXs on Pro Comp Series 97 15x8 Steelies, Bud Built Front Skid, 4xI rock sliders, 4.88s and an Eaton True Trac LSD up front, 4.88s and a Detroit Locker in the rear, LED cab clearance lights, Sway Bar Delete, Rear Diff Breather Mod, Autometer Monster Tach, Cobra 25LTD Classic, Roof-mounted 3' Firestik Firefly, Garmin GPS, HiLift Jack, Flush-mount LED pod lights in rear bumper, 28" light bar in the front bumper, rear shock relocation (Ruff Stuff brackets), u-bolt flip with Ruff Stuff Anti-wrap perches, CBI rear frame reinforcements, 10" travel Bilstein 5125 rear shocks, heavy duty front crossmember made by Allenfab, Rear shock mounts/crossmember (for upper mounts), spring perches, frame plates, and front crossmember welded in by Allenfab, CBI Ditch Light Brackets, Ditch Light Pods. AllenFab Custom Hybrid front bumper and recovery points. Drivetrain lifted 2" in conjunction with a 2" BL. Modified Trail Gear transmission crossmember/skid. Warn Xeon 10K winch. Large left side body mod.
    Well...it's after the Annual Citrus Meet so I'll go ahead and make it official, I can't make this one. I'm hemorrhaging too much cash trying to keep the OGT battle-ready. I've got a blown rear shock and the eccentrics in my LCAs keep moving around on me for some reason.

    I'm gonna have to do a ubolt flip to see if I can reposition the lower mount for the shock a little further away from the spring (it hits the spring during full articulation hard enough to leave a nice dent in the shock body). That and I need to have a stronger front crossmember made. The current one isn't stout enough to absorb the impacts to the skid.

    If I have enough left over after all that, I think I'm going to finally break down and get a light bar.

    As far as the eccentrics, I think I might have went overboard with the anti-seize when I replaced my LCA bushings and they are lubed a little too well. Gonna have to take them out and clean 'em off to see if that clears up the issue.

    I hate to miss this event, but it is what it is. :pout:

    Well all the money is spent for gulches now. My pocket hates me, but I can start a build thread going so I've got that going for me.
