    Got my 30" lightbar installed in my front bumper today with the help of @EatSleepTacos

    Nice and bright. I missed having a lightbar in the front. I'll get some daytime pictures tomorrow.

    Man only 11 months for it to go from nice and anti seized, to rusty as fuck. Glad we caught it.

    Yeah. If you mark where your alignment currently is, then just put the bolts back in where they were you'd be fine as far as alignment goes.

    It honestly wouldn't hurt to get an alignment that often with as much as we bounce around on rocks.

    We need to do cam tab gussets for you one of these days. Or at the very least lay some beads of weld behind the stock tabs to reinforce them

    There are a lot of things that need to happen. But I agree. That should probably move up to the top of my priority list. along with a full size spare.

    There are just so many "little" things ($60 here, $80 there) and they all add up real quick. Cam tab gussets being one of those things. Makes it hard to save for bigger things.

    Nope. Never. All the scrapes and dings are from running into shopping carts and such.

    Installed stiffer coils in the front and rear to support all of the weight I've added.

    Decided to go with 886's up front and 889's in the rear. Looks to have gained about an inch in the front and rear.

    A lot better. It doesnt bounce nearly as much as it did with the 885s. It feels a lot smoother
    Yeah I cant remember where it was, but I think I remember it being in front of a friend's house.
