Also want to add that everyone should get an Aussie locker for the front and 4.56 gears (for 33's). Best mods I have done so far. Love the traction and power difference from stock.

Oh....forgot.... I like your updates of the first post. It reminds me of my Xterra forum that I'm on. They've got a section of just whoring out your rig/project log and everything is nicely setup in the first post. Makes for a perfect, easy read first post full of info.

Looks good man. I will vouch for that aussie up front. I miss mine already, although I will eventually get this D30 all locked up and maybe go selectable.

Nope, Jacob was supposed to bring them when he came to Roswell for Thanksgiving. I have not heard any more so I don't know what's going on. All I know is that I still don't have them. I think I'll just ask for a refund.

Yeah, I know.

Thanks! It rides great, much better than stock. The bumps are much smoother. Definitely worth it!

Not yet, I have not been able to get home from work before dark. Not for lack of trying either; I will get some soon though.

I'm sure the highway will be good once DOT blades it and puts down sand. There is no way you could make it with the way the roads are now. Be sure to let me know when you want to meet up for some pics.
