    I wish. I'll have to tear this all apart again after I get those. Needed to re-boot my CVs and replace my LCA bushings, mainly.

    After I removed the LCAs I backed up the alignment tabs by welding them. I've also got the alignment cam eliminators.

    Bull bar with LED lights. It's brighter than the LED fog lights. It's great to see it in action..

    I'd say these are going to be a bit of an upgrade.

    Anyone who's ever drilled these f'n holes with a hand drill, certainly has my respect... because those were an m'f'er with my drill press.

    I was just looking at the steering rack thinking it's going to be a pain to get that rear most alignment tabs in and the factory ones out. I think I'm going to wait until after this next big trip coming up so I don't feel pressured to rush it and have it aligned
