just fyi, having your front plate on the dash is about the same as not having it on the front at all.  also since you have out of state plates, no cop will give you shit for not having one at all as they have no clue if  ND requires them or not.

Yeah, honestly I just set it up there and forgot about it. I haven't taken it down completely because I'm pretty sure the security forces gate guards on base would give me grief about it. If it weren't for that, it would be gone.

Love the exhaust! I need something like that for my X. The tailpipe on the Goon is in horrible shape. I'll probably need to get something custom made for the Gen 1.

If you have a bender at the shop, it should be pretty easy to fab up.

Went a little higher this weekend.  Cranked the coilovers up in the front and added PRG adjustable shackles out back (also added extended Bilsteins from PRG and Nisstec extended brake lines).  I think the front feels a lot better.  I was expecting a harsher ride, but I think the added pre-load seems to help smooth out the ride a little bit.

Got some awesome shots this weekend at Rowher Flat OHV area.  Pics added to OP.

Well, it's official, TS sourcing has begun.  Already have used Radflos on the way, UCAs and LCAs are sitting on my wish list at Amazon.  I'm just waiting for a reply about used extended CVs.

Right on! Looking forward to seeing how it goes.

Rik, you have one nice rig there that's for sure!

Thank you! The thing is never done. I thought I was done, but the Titan swap was sitting in the back of my mind.  I finally conceded and decided to do it. Plus, after actually using my truck, I think it needs the extra travel that comes from the swap. Not necessarily for high speed stuff, I think it currently handles that well, but for climbing. I'd like to be able to climb things, without getting three wheel action on every single obstacle.
