    Haha Yeah that's me :p:rolleyes:
    Question...Can I still utilize the bushings? How hard are they to remove from from my old control arm and still keep intact?

    Wow Nice jump Blake. The front looks like it hit real hard though.

    Yea you can just grab a deep 16 0r 17mm socket, put the arm on its side and tap out the inner sleeve and pop out the bushings. It should be pretty easy.

    Well that's how the original design was but for some reason when it was made it didn't come out that way. When i take it in next weekend I'm going to get that skid for it.

    Towing her down to chorpus to South Texas 4x4 on Thursday. She'll be going under the knife friday morning. Along with getting the front fixed and a custom bash plate she'll also be getting some addicted off-road sliders and rear bumper if they make it to the shop on time. Pray for her.

    Sounds good man! If you dont mind me asking, why are you going all the way to Corpus to get it fixed? There has to be a shop closer to you.

    Update: She's finally fixed and drives just like she did before. No pulling or wobbling. Ordered a spanner wrench so I can adjust my coil-overs but until then she won't see anything crazy. Used a jack and some heat to straighten everything back out. Lance at South Texas 4x4 did a great job and I honestly think if it wasn't for him no one else would have touched it. Also added trail gear sliders and a rear bumper while I was at it.

    Nice! Just make sure your truck bumps with more ground clearance next time or bigger tires ;)
