    LOL I know what you mean - there were times when I just gritted my teeth and, as John said, "mashed it!" LOL

    I took my truck to the car wash yesterday and the guy that checks in all the cars said that this was "loco" - but with a little upcharge they got my truck looking like new again - but I have not looked under the hood!

    awymoore have you found replacement mirror(s) yet? My replacement wheel comes in tomorrow and I'll be ready and steady again soon... I def need some steelies if I'm going to do this more often!

    Man you're so lucky. Theo nly reason I got to go is that I promised the Mrs. that I would have new hardwood floors installed on the main level of our house this weekend. Have fun wheelin'... bastard, LOL

    Yeah I wanted to do the polite thing and clean mine since I'm due for an inspection and I'm taking it in to get that new wheel put on - I'm also taking it to the muffler shop so I can get that tail pipe out of the way for next time...

    well..here are the carnage shots. by next meet, i should have UCA's, 3" leaf pack, coilovers, armored everything underneath (gas tank, rear diff, exhaust, trans, and trans skids), as well as hopefully an allpro front bumper and maybe something else for the rear...not sure yet. might also make a trip to unbreakable for a driveshaft skid...we'll see...but also none of that would have helped whe carnage from this trip...lol...and also my wheels are skinned to shit as well

    A few bolts are different.
    :eek: Sorry to see that. I didnt get carnage from the trip but the car wash brush gave me a pretty good line from tip to tail.

    Which part of the trail did that? Did you also go through the mud pit and hit that bank like luni and tiger? I don't remember you doing that -

    ...just wondering...

    Keep us posted on where you'regetting your armor. I have the fever for an all-pro front bumper BIG TIME and I'm picking up some freelance work to fund it. Help with sources, especially with others in our area, would be helpful. I'd also be interested if anyone that wasn't too far away could help with the install.......

    Is this somebody that's a custom fabricator? I'd be interested as well. Is he local?

    I'm trying to work a deal now on an all-pro front bumper... we'l see what happens - but I also need to armor up big time!
