    Hard to tell in the picture but put a nice hole in my transfer case by the fill hole lol. Thanks to @rngr giving me jb weld we got it fixed and back on the trail. Unfortunately I tried putting on a show which failed and rebroke the case haha. It was fun and I regret nothing! Also the tie rods held up very well! I know for sure I would have broken a factory tie rod. The new springs are night and day difference! Truck rode better than ever and now acts more like a crawler. Overall the few changes made make me very pleased with the truck now.

    Update. Got my fj case in and currently split in half and working on the twin stick. Also need a battery as my yellow top has died. Then on to power steering upgrades!

    I used to get "steering fade" while wheeling and added a power steering cooler. That seemed to have remedied that problem. Are you sticking with an OEM rack?

    Awesome! I've been eyeing that rack also. But I figure, there's no sense in buying it just yet if my OEM rack is holding out so far.

    Painted the front a rear to give the truck a much needed face lift.
