    Looks like a DB to me. Hard to make out, but you can see the DB and the UCA/UBJ...

    Definitely wish it was solid front. But I just recently had to put 120k down to buy my first home here in hawaii, and any side time that I have is spent completing projects around the house i.e. no side time to go wheeling like I used to. So I feel like it would be a waste of money to do all the work completing a "sfa" all to drive to work and back with the occasional lumber haul.

    Being a 4x4 V6 with a locker it’s fairly safe to say I have 4.10 gears right?
