Over the weekend I drove it home. Took my kids to McDonald's and on the way home hit my 6yo's favorite "Big Bump" Its a part of a back road that is sinking deep into the side of the road and everyone goes around ... but me

I have a set of Currie LCA to install on the front and rear, and fender flares should be here this week. I also have 4.56's to install........

I would like to say, that Jeffrey from Rough Country is GREAT. UPS had some issues getting some of the parts to us.........One call to Jeffrey, and the issue was taken care of.........

Also, the Hard Rock Tire Carrier Rear bumper is a work of art. Everything fits well, construction is top notch, and over all quality is EXCELLANT........I highly recommend.

I'd post pics, but I haven't been a member long enough yet.

Take Care All,
Steve

Check for the correct bump stop..... I suspect that your shock maybe acting as if it is a bump stop..... that will only work a few times

I installed the missing tailgate exhauster (vent) I thought it had fallen off somewhere , that is untill I went to install it... You have to remove the spare tire bracket or at least lossen it enough to get the exhauster behind it, cause it won't fit through the bracket holes oh well go figure why was it missing...

that is cool! never seen that before. I wound up carrying 2 extra packs of valve caps with me because they wind up getting left behind when I air down or back up.
today, I just drove it to the grocery store
gotta finish up the bondo/paint job on the back this weekend
