build update... SOA in rear completed with my previous leaf packs, which dropped from 8 to 5 leaves. along with a few customized parts and new shock mounts. SYE installed along with new rear driveshaft. new Maxxis tires are in, with Trail-Gear rims coming on Wednesday as per UPS Side note - Drove Brutus around the neighborhood, shocking children and scaring their mothers. Left to do... - add a little fluid to t-case (some drained out during SYE install) - install front 20" Limit straps - adjust front bump stops. - mount tires on rims and torque a crap ton of bolts, a task I will greatly enjoy!. - then do a check of all fasteners on the truck. load truck and spares for trip to PA... it's been awhile. |
