    Thanks guys, still dreading the install but it'll be well worth 12 new holes in the roof.

    Build Update: I'm a 4x4 again!


    Stub shaft, where it belongs!

    Also, got around to installing the EBC stage 4 kit, I can finally stop again.


    Gears are fully broken in so it was time for fresh oil. I decided next time I'm going to use an electric pump, this hand pump is a POS.

    Appreciate that man, it's been a lot of fun building this rig, can't wait to put her to use this summer.

    Thanks! so far so good but I'm in break in phase. No harsh stops for another few hundred miles but after that I'll make sure to report back.

    Whatcha get!? What we talked about earlier?

    Yeah buddy!!! I bought the mid skid to give me time to either take my truck to an exhaust shop, or buy the URD y-pipe, but yes exhaust reroute for sure.

    I was curious about those EBC brakes when I had my 08. Did you do brake lines already?

    Thanks! getting faster each time I rip this stuff apart. haha

    I've only racked up about 30 miles so I've been light on them for break in but can already tell they're a huge upgrade. Still slacking on the lines, I've got them but they're not a priority just yet.

    Next up, I have another date with the sawzall, grinder, and jigsaw. :sawzall: It's time to get rid of more chrome.

    Whoa.. that's the most impressive tumble weed I've ever seen.

    Build update...
    Bought lots of things, installed a few things, went down to CA for work, now back in WA and have hundreds of TW notifications.

    Just brewed some coffee, I have much to catch up on.

    You've never driven through euphrata or Moses lake in the summer time then eh? Not uncommon to see tumble weed blow across the highway. Granted they aren't quite that size, maybe half, but they take a few miles to grind out from under your rig if you hit one and pray it doesn't catch fire from your exhaust. o_O

    Negative, never been out that way in the few years I've been here. Still blown away how drastic the climate changes across this state.

    true story

    SF bay for the annual Game Developers Conference. Got to check out some pretty sweet new tech and see old industry buds, good times all around.
