That looks good. This mod is on my radar, but I'm still not sure about it.

 That's the last time those skids will look good

True that...in a good way.

Picked these up on the forum a few months back. Had them stripped and powder coated satin gun metal. Thinking of putting a Nismo decal to make them knock off Nismo wheels hehehe

Wheels are killer. Where did you get the coated?

I took it out for one of its favorite activities - a long road trip.

An 8-day 2,140-mile road trip. We started from San Diego, spent a night in Phoenix, a night in Albuquerque, 3 nights in Santa Fe (with a day trip up to Taos), then a night in Las Cruces and finally a night in Tucson before returning home.

We saw a lot of cool stuff along the way, and had a lot of great food, but almost had the whole trip unexpectedly cut short on the third day when we came upon this. 



It was a close call, but in the end we got past it, and we were able to continue on our way.

I'll post some more pictures of the trip in a picture thread.

installed my Dep Hep molle panel Mrs. Fourxfunk got me for my birthday.  Seems solid and now I've got some room to mount some goodies!

So after having a little vibration on the highway that I have been trying to track down, I finally found the culprit.  Someone installed the tender coil underneath the main coil.  That little spring was pretty much all the way compressed bouncing all over the place on little bumps causing the vibration.  I removed the sway bar to allow full articulation so the springs were not compressed and swapped them around.

Took advantage of my wife napping with 2 of the kids and got the Dephep Molle installed.  Not pictured is kid 3 who was busy using the Olympic rack as a grill.
