Measure Once, Cut Twice: A Story of Excitement and Impatience

sucks. i should be loaded as well and meeting you on the road.....................next yr. be safe and have some fun.
Yeah, I was looking forward to you making it. But, like Rich, you have greater things going on at home now. We’ll take and post as many pics as possible for those left behind.
 
Not near as much ass dragging this year with the Savvy vs Motobilt rear bumper I ran last year. Also put the hardcore upgrade I put on the rear to use as well. It certainly helps my drive by braille.

i didnt buy the hardcore corners when i got the bumper i figured i'd pick them up later............but not now, i got on their site the other day and those pieces have gone up 50$. guess i'm makin my own.

They are technically for the front, but with my LJ overhang, I thought they’d be useful on the rear as well.
 
Neat, I didn’t realize they could work on the back.
I didn’t either until I asked Blaine. He physically checked fitment with a set, so I ordered another set for the rear. If you aren’t blind, then you probably don’t need them lol.

Ever since you posted yours up done that way I've wanted to do the same. Too bad I can't order any of that stuff.
 
In other news, Nephew blew a head gasket in his XJ. He had a shop clean and mill the head. We’ve been working on it after we both get off work for a couple days. Almost put back together. He lost the manifold bolts lol. New ones arrive tomorrow. I think he has 250-260k on this motor.
