    the only ones u will here at fort carson are at 0630. thats revellie with the flag going up. then again at 1700 which is retreat and the flag comes down. if u here one at 2100/2200 its probably taps being played.

    at 0630 u will also hear the 4th division march which is the 4th ID song that soldiers sing after saluting the flag

    Hey thanks guys. I figured It was no big deal.

    Hahahha well shit. They sent it back clean... but that's it lol. Super fucking amped to get this installed. I gave up aftercutting the passenger LCA off. But came into the garage this morning and the left one just dropped out easy peazy. Spent 50$ on devil blades for no reason at all lmao.


    Now whiskey to ale my soul until the pb blast is done soaking the diff mounts.

    I got a couple cans of 99 cent hardware store paint we can use

    It's almost a match for factory black on Toyotas, Fords, and Nissans

    I’m planning a last minute trip to CO this coming weekend & there’s a friend up there that wants to learn how to drive a stick that I’m meeting to show me around.

    If any of you are near Colorado Springs & Denver area we plan to do some off-roading while I’m up there. Would absolutely love to meet some of my fellow enthusiasts that are willing to help give her an opportunity to learn a new skill & meet more people that enjoy what we do.

    If you can make it, I’ll be driving up from TX on Thursday & coming back Sunday - Friday or Saturday would be optimal. Please message me what day u can make it & we can arrange a meet up location before then. Not sure where we’re going as I heard the best areas were closer to Woodland Park for off-roading.

    Any of you animals have experience with these? Pleasant experience? Poor ?
    Take the L and buy the 250$ replacement from Toyota?
    The 21 day lead time does not fit my schedule.

    It appears there aren't any real "upgrade" options for me for this piece. But my bushings are fucking shot.
    Also trying to source the intermediate steering ujoint bushing.
    TIA

    The Ecoflow with extar battery ran the fridge all weekend, no problem and still had 30% left when i got home.
    At the same time, it took all weekend to solar charge the lifepo4 battery, then I used that at home to recharge the ecoflow, in about 3 hours.
    I'm ready for full time off grid living.

    And then I saw this last weekend mowing the lawn.
    PXL_20220731_021210329.jpg

    I try to be careful mowing up there and in the backyard I'm always worried I'm gonna run over a baby rabbit...

    Who new basic simple lawncare was so hazardous
