    Yep, had to rescue my truck from the fabricator who had it.
    My wrap got destroyed, battery is toast, my spare set of spindles was “lost” and the bumper that was being made is still not done and may not ever be...

    So I moved the truck elsewhere and have the front suspension coming off this weekend so that the buyer can take it. And hopefully my 4.5 kit will be done in a couple weeks?

    Then it goes to Mcneil for fiberglass front and rear fenders.

    Then to a new fabricator for the roll cage and 4 link set up.
    Then hopefully I’ll be getting close to coming home.

    The biggest hiccup has been orders on parts taking forever and not staying in the deadline given.

    Otherwise I’m just going to the gym and doing physical therapy and working with vets out here from time to time

    Yes,
    All stock and LT suspension/shocks from the front is sold.

    Now I’m just waiting an eternity for my solo XLT kit to be ready for pick up
