    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    Alright. It's not a hi lift brand but same thing. Unfortunately they are kinda useless unless you got bumpers or sliders. I'll bring it for sure.

    brian ive got hose clamps and teflon tape im bringin for the diff breather mod.

    went to wal mart and got my paint for the bhlm. only question is i couldnt find flat so i went with satin black instead. also didnt know what kind of clear to get i.e. gloss satin or flat so i got satin clear to go with it. do you think satin will look alright or should i take it back and try to find flat??? let me know what ya'll think.

    Cool, thanks Justin.

    Satin will provide a little bit of a shine. Considering that it is a "chrome" already there, it shouldn't be as reflective as what you have now and will of course change color. I think it would be fine.

    Paul, I have sliders, just nothing on the ends.

    oh yea.. that bridge in a few pics is like a few minutes from my house. which is 45 min to an hour from the meet. but yes it would be a good location for pics. as far as everyone driving in a line. its not illegal as long as were doing nothing illegal.

    Cancelled my wheels and tires order. Most likely will end up buying a set of tires from a guy locally and will try and grab some wheels a little after that. So I won't have them to install at the meet, but things are looking good.

    I used satin black and gloss clear on mine and i love it! Now for the clear satin i'm not sure but the only think i don't like about flat is the color on the can is slightly off from what it will really be.. All my flat applications always were greyish.. but to me satin keeps true to black. Also i wet sanded my headlights and then washed them and blew dry them for a better hold for the paint... I sanded most of the chrome off period! LOL! So i had non showing through on mine.

    And yes thank you so much for the hose clamps and teflon tape!!

    I wasn't sure if it was or not i just remembered hearing about it somewhere. I'd be down for a picture setting out there but we might not have everyone with us..

    I want to do a short trip somewhere so at about noon we could go take quick pics grab a bite to eat then back to Brian's house to chill talk hang out and finish up some loose ends.. I know my08yoyo might not have headlights but he might if we can set up a makeshift heating booth! LOL! If not then we'll take pics as everyone roles in before we go out for a cruise...

    AKA stay away from Redstone!!! LOL!! I wouldn't put it past Huntsville giving us a ticket though being the end of the month.. LOL! JK guys.. Like Gotlift said... as long as we're not doing anything illegal then I HIGHLY doubt anyone will say anything to us except drop their jaws in shock an aww! We deffinately have to go to the Toyota Dealership though just to freak them out! LOL! (Maybe)

    Well good to know...

    Man have i got a deal for you Paul!! LOL! JK!! But seriously i might have found another set of wheels!

    Between 8:00 and 10:00 if you're gonna be doing any mods would be good if not you'll be cutting it close... but at least everyone need to be there NO LATER than 11:30am... I want to make sure we have everyone when we go get something to eat...

    Wait i just thought of something..

    Did someone mention bisquits for everyone or just for Brian? If not i'll have to check the funds but i can pick up a few chicken bisquits from "Bojangles"!! WOOT WOOT!!!

    Well, I have to run the dog and stuff before I get there, so 8am means getting up as early as I get up for work. :p I'll get there before 11, I'm just not promising 8. No mods on my truck though.
