    Oh, and speaking of taking guts, I've already looked up the part number and cost for the trim piece. Just an $85 mistake if it happens. ;)

    Ordered some amber switches for the lights. The blue ones I have are reversed where the top light lights up with the headlights instead of when the switch is in the "ON" position. They don't have the blue ones I want in stock so settled on amber. Will match the dash lights better but I do like the soothing of the blue.

    They're not the best wash either. I have been to Los Pollos Hermanos. Well, the building anyway. It's actually a Twisters in the south valley near where I used to live. Damn good burritos, no chicken at all.

    Anyone here installed a U-bolt flip kit? I just ordered one and I am curious if I even need to jack up the truck to do this. My logic says just chock the wheels, unbolt one side at a time, install the new kit and repeat on the other side. Any reason the truck needs to be off the ground for this?

    Seems simple, but I had the truck off the ground to install the AAL before so not sure here.

    Thanks in advance.

    You dont have to jack up the truck but having the tires off and truck on stands makes it easier to work on. It should be a quick and easy swap.

    So I encountered no mud at all when I went shooting yesterday out off of Cabezon Road. A few new ponds, and lots of gnats, but no mud.

    I shot 354 rounds of ammo, all through my chronograph. I now have a blister on my trigger finger. :facepalm:
