    I'm good with it! And he said he'd have it done same day

    The Cherokee? Naahh... I might add a plate rear bumper and swingout for a spare but I don't have any plans for it in the near future aside from bushings, bearings, and seals. And I need to figure out where that stupid vacuum leak is but I keep forgetting to buy starter fluid. Maybe this will help remind me...

    :hungry:


    I wanna try Mah Jong, it sounds delicious

    Chicken sounds good, I think I'll make fajitas tonight. Does it feel like the mine at home right now with the crazy winter storm blast we're getting?

    No! The crazy lady was practically paying for a family member to take them away not two weeks ago and now she’s all hem hawing about how the roads are dangerous and she doesn’t think I’ll make it and isn’t gas hard to come by right now etc, etc, etc. She has FIVE old military units and three don’t work. I offered to BUY one for $500 in unknown condition and she said I should just turn on the burners on my stove :censored:

    She’s an in-law. I said next time they need something I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it. The roads are dangerous and gas is hard to come by and I don’t know if I’ll even make it so she can just go ahead and lose my phone number.

    That said, our power just came back on. We’re cautiously optimistic. We also just found out that until yesterday CPS was only showing 6 houses in our area without power. I can’t figure that one out. There are a few hundred houses here. The whole neighborhood flipped their shit when they heard.

    me too dude
    I didn’t work on it at all during snowvid-21 and I’m really itching to get the lift finished before the crawl box gets here. They said they had all the materials on hand and they’d have it built in about two weeks and the order is already processed

    I like that the rims don’t have a machined lip that holds onto mud like the SCS rims did. That shit was a pain in the ass to clean out and made the wheel completely off balance until I could get it all out.

    I decided to go with the Toyos because the sidewall is so much better than the ProComps. That and I’ve only ever heard very positive feedback from people that run them.
