    Nope. :brianr:

    Also - I owe you a call. Been going non-stop recently, but I haven't forgot.

    It was annoying immediately on a fire road. On the trail it wasn't too bad.

    Yep. Go back to page 100ish and go up from there.

    My build is a disorganized mess, and it'll stay that way. :rofl:

    I think if I just wait a little bit longer, I won't have to cut off the IFS stuff for my SAS. :bananadead:

    His biggest issue is he keeps LOOKING for cracks. Ignorance is bliss, duh.

    Just found that one on a quick pre trip inspection. I'm more worried about the ones I haven't found yet...


    Anyways, I welded it up and still enjoyed my weekend.

    Not sure exactly, but soonish. Still trying to decide what I want to do with both trucks and when.

    I have the mounting hardware from GFC sitting here. Need to get some new bedrail tops too.
