    Eric and I winched him out and back up on to the trail but the truck wouldn't start so I think they're going to roll out with a new starter tomorrow. Then he can put put down and out. Fun way to spend a Friday night!

    Been in a bit more contact, wasnt starter actually. The guy that put the new battery in put the terminals backwards, seems to have fried the distributor, maybe some more. :doh:

    Exactly! Would have made extraction of the rig much easier had it been under it's own power to aid our winches.
    Oh well, Matt and I got it free still

    I'll have to take a peek, I know some came out blurry from the lack of lighting making focus difficult, but there should be a few at least

    Well looks like we're leaning on the 30th for the mod/ meet and greet day
    With that being said anyone willing to help me install a rear HC? :oops:
    Never done a mod that required chopping

    I'll help. I'm going to build my own rear HC soon so it would be a good learning experience.

    For sure I'll give you a hand I swapped out mine to do an AAL like a year and a half ago now I'm going expos for all the weight that's going to begin to add up in the back they should be in soon but I'll probably try to do that myself if they come in

    Yeah the AAL is good until you start adding weight with the rear HC, swing out, spare tire and bed rack I'm looking at 250lbs on at all times and more if I add camping gear and what not
    Checked on my expos and they are expected to arrive Thursday so I'll try to get them on this weekend and it'll be stiff until I add the bumper
