I probably would, just around the neighborhood and stuff. But I am really not wanting to get caught driving and them take it again!!! It cost me a good chunk to get it out of impound the first time.

We had an "agreement" and you didn't keep your word. So you call it whatever you want. I'm not sweating it, **** happens.

I've seen a rear tire come off a jeep. Scary **** right there. Must be a jeep thing, we wouldn't understand. lol

I'll let you know if I want em or not.



Gonna get back into working on the truck tonight, seeing as I've only put about 3 hrs into it. lol Maybe I can start installing things tonight instead of just taking stuff off.

Got a little more done last night.

These were waiting on me when I got home.


Rotors off. They put up a good fight, but I KO'ed em. lol


Popping the tie rods off. They both have a little wore spot on them in the same spot. I don't know if they need to be replaced or not, but it's probably time anyway.



ABS sensor


Hub waiting to knocked off.


That's about it, we'll see how today goes.

That's the way the guy was selling them. I'll probably end up selling the third leaf.
