    If it ever gets warm out. Thanks to @theredofshaw for the generous TWSS gift!! Tried to get out there to install today, but the cold set in quick and instructions said to wait for 65 degrees anyway. Getting impatient with some of this stuff.

    running that long cable along the frame is definitely bone-chilling in your weather. i didn't have a creeper when i did mine and it sucked.

    People are always surprised you can drive on the beach in NJ. That's because we pay.

    I'm researching tires now and you keep popping up in all the threads. Would 255/75-17 fit my truck w/ no rubbing? From what I can tell yours isn't any higher than mine and seems to be doing fine.

    Yep you shouldn't have any problem at all. In fact alot of folks run these sizes with stock suspension. I had them on this one for a couple of weeks with stock suspension and they did fine with only minor rubbing now with the lift there's no rubbing at all. The 75's will be even a little shorter so I wouldn't expect any issues. No need for a cmc either. It took a bit of convincing for me to go to the skinnies but now I love 'em

    Light covers were already turning yellow on my fake ARBs. Decided to finally bite the bullet and see if the real ARB covers fit. They do.
