    Same.

    Curious of cost. Are they welding yours in Andrew? Just wondering if this would be "weld on" out of the box.

    Mounted the pelican vault 730 cases today. Damn, they are sturdy and built well. Also took another half inch or so off my front fenders. Used a Dremel this time and came out a bit more straight. Used trimlok this time. Going to do my rears Thursday hopefully

    Yesterday and today I washed and reoiled my K&N air filter, added a lexan window to the filter housing and cut and drilled some steel pieces to make mounts for my traction boards. Also did my part to stimulate the economy and support small business by ordering 886 coils and OME struts and shocks (@HeadStrong Off-Road) to replace my current 885 and 5100 combo since I'm getting ready to install a bumper and winch. Also ordered new lca bolts and cams and an ARB tree strap. Now just have to figure out what to do about lca bushings.

    I looked at 4 wheel parts website and they are 450 free shipping. Going to check Amazon also. What prices have you found? 4 wheel parts is also close to my house and I would want to be able to take it somewhere if it shits on me.

    Upgraded and relocated my trailer connector into my bumper. The new plug also has a sweet 5pin built in so no need for an adapter. I smashed the OEM one wheeling a while back 74C295D3-95BB-4020-81B0-1FA9CBFD0B44.jpg B42BC611-BE63-45EB-951D-D48C58DC6A87.jpg

    How well do the license plate lights work on that side with the adapter being so big? I just picked one of these up and wanted to mount it in the same place but I figured it would completely block the one light.
