    Oh nothing...gonna say we found lights but there s min limit per order. Shipping is a kick in the pants so if I order I'll make post about a group buy of sorts.

    Anyways. No I go through Lexington.. basically straight down 75 like we go to Harlan.
    If you guys are planning to get down around noon fish than maybe I'll work an hour or two on Friday am. I had plan end leaving Thursday eve but I'm flexible.

    As for trail lead.. are we rolling w some peeps that u already know of or where u implying that I was leading?

    Axle issues. Drivers side shaft ins't long enough to reach the carrier and engage. Someone didnt notice the splines didnt engage into anything when they installed them.

    Currently he is gonna have one made today by Moser Engr. :cool:

    Well Nick today we discovered it probably is the locker..... I called the guy and he measured my old driver side shaft and it was the correct length.. he said he inspected the locker but never disassembled the carrier to take it apart. Ford 9 has a closed carrier to it's really hard to see if any damage was done but ah who am I kidding. Burn the truck down! :D

    Hey guys I am from lombard IL. I just joined last week and got my truck this past saturday. 2012 Red Baja. I figured I would stop in and check out the regional section. I am not a big off roader. I hunt and fish so there is definitely a need for a truck.

    I already posted some pictures in a different thread, but o well. I am excited about the truck!
