    4 Wheel Parts now in Louisville had their first "Meet & Greet & Eat" last night.:thumbsup:

    It's called "Jeep night in Louisville". :eek::(

    I see where their loyalties reside. :annoyed:

    We need a Toyota based shop and/or group in lower Midwest area. :cool:

    Got my Pelfreybilt aluminum front bumper installed the other day. Pretty straight forward install. I wish they would put a video on their website to aid in the install. Ran into a couple issues, but I'm happy with the results.

    I'm on my work phone. I'll post a pic when I get off. Bill, I didn't use any washers between the studs and bumper, but did use them between the bumper and nuts. I'd think that would be a requirement. The aluminum is too soft to torque the nuts down without washers.

    I had to shim mine to get proper fit. 2 washers before bumper.

    Sometimes things happen that put other things in perspective.

    Yesterday morning, on the other end of our county, a little girl, not quite 3 years old, wandered out of the front door of her grandparents house. They have custody. She apparently left with their pitbull. Once the grandmother realized the child was gone, a massive search began. Troops and helocopters from nearby Ft. Knoxwere even employed. 30 + hours in, about the point where everyonewas about to give up hope, she was found very near the house. Alive, dehydrated, and covered in ticks.....but alive.

    Sort of took my breath away for a few seconds when I heard. Make all the trivial everyday crap seem so unimportant.

    Like to see justify win for Mike Smith.

    Starting the stretch of 6 weeks that makes me wish my summer away.

    7 events on 15 total days. 44 days from start until last one is over. 85% of our revenue for the year.

    Grind.

    Then I start taking vacations!

    Question Bill. How do you like the 887's. I'm debating on making the switch from toytec eibach 2.5" coils to 887's. Running 5100's as well. I don't think I'm sitting somewhere around 2"-2.25" with poly spacers on (3/8" on both sides and a 1/4" staked on top of the driver's side 3/8). I didn't take measurements before putting the 80lb skid on... should have. I just don't think I'm happy with these coils anymore. Your thoughts?
