    Things run a little different now I guess lol. I got to apply for ONLY pilot as a civilian trying to go OCS which is cool. The only way I don't go Pilot is if something happens with the flight physical even though medicals were included with the stipulation of pilot on my application. Or if I fail out of flight school... but I imagine that to be hard to do when you can really devote your whole life and time to 1 thing only.

    The goal is to end up in Fallon at some point LOL. Its also shocking to think of how different my life is going to be compared to the Commercial Insurance career that I was about to begin..

    As someone who's spent nearly 20 years in commercial lending/credit administration, I'm a bit envious. Desk jobs aren't for me but I'm so far into it my only real option is to ride it out for another 5 years then hopefully retire.

    My guess would be mid-late June if you want it mostly snow free. Just based on past experience in similar snow years, haven’t been up there yet this year. Only way to find out for sure is to go :)

    Good prongs, decent length, terrible mass. Pass.

    Bought 2 OEM CV's for the GX almost a year ago. One finally started making noise in the last couple of weeks, so I figured it was time to finally replace them. Made pretty quick work of it. Figured I do the hubs/bearings and seal while I was in there...

    I was on track to get it done in a couple hours, until I opened the CV boxes. I didn't notice it right away, but both are pretty fucked up along the hub race. Hard to believe that they are both mangled in the same spots...

    Hopefully Bell Lexus will help me out. May have to go to the parts store and buy a cheap one for the side I took off until I can get this resolved. Pretty shitty as I was hoping to go out for the weekend.

    @RelentlessFab build me JKU sliders and a rear bumper :mad:

    I sold the hybrid bumper to a guy in Carson, he was stoked to get it below retail price. Keeping the sliders

    If I had a bit time! Been real busy focused on new product designs lately on the 4G Taco, some Ranger stuff and also on our 3rd Gen Colorado so I haven't even gotten to my own projects
