yeah its a deer, it would be a dead deer too if i didnt live in the city. The most ive counted out there is 40 at a time. They go back there together and graze. Found lots of deer antlers and bones etc.

Update for 12/26/07

Got my Curt 2" reciever mounted.




Now i just need to get a D-ring and the mount to put it in the hitch

This took me about 3 hours to do by myself. Only problem i ran into was i forgot to put the heat shield back on. Do i REALLY need this? I dont want to find out the hard way. I can always fab one up i suppose. But is it absolutely no questions asked necessary?

As always your build is a few steps ahead of mine. Looks good.
I just wish it wasn't so damn cold here so I felt like working on mine.

Stupid torx bolts? When we took my friend's fogs off I had to put vice grips on my torx screw driver. Get a torx socket...so much easier. One of them we stripped and we had to drill it out.

Tried... after breaking 3 sockets i gave up. Ill probably just drill them all out. Anybody have any input on the heat shield for the gas tank?
