Great thread. Awesome informative write up. And lets be honest a great front bumper you installed. Keep modding and keep posting.

Thank you for your service mam!:usa:
 
new project today. I purchased the devil horns emblem from diaz fabrication a while back. I nearly forgot that it was coming because of the processing time. The emblem showed up yesterday while i was painting.

Paint it purple!!!!

Has 10 days past yet?

I actually called the powder coat shop early this week. They left me a voicemail some time today (no cell phone allowed at work) and said my shackles AND emblem were finished (color is "candy purple"). UNfortunately I cannot pick them up until some point next week (closed for the holiday tomorrow and Monday). Maaaayyybe I can coerce my "jeep" friend to pick them up for me since they are an hour from me and he lives 10 minutes from the place. [emoji13]
 
Picked up some used BB sliders and Trail rockers from AlexT4R today. More paint stripping is in my future.

Also.... since SOMEONE (ahem... you know who you are) mentioned my truck looks like Rhonda Rousey in ballet shoes.... I ordered tires and wheels today. [emoji13]

Lol. That right there is a great analogy! Can't wait to see it fitted with proper shoes!
 
Getting my sliders painted. Don't look closely, my painting skills suck horribly. I figure they'll get scratched up at the Cove anyway (not to mention the freakin neighbor's lawn guy started mowing while I was painting... ugh). I will not be stripping these bad boys again. That was a PITA.

Tires and wheels should be here Thursday or Friday just waiting on a shipping notification from Tire Rack. Woot! [emoji57]

HAHAHA....I was biting my tongue. I know you're getting new wheels but I don't think Ive ever seen a lifted Runner with the stock tires on it. Holy shit does it look ridiculous.

Yes... Thanks for that. I know it's ridiculous. [MENTION=65614]Antman[/MENTION] already reminded me of that. Lol. In fact you might refer to the earlier Rhonda Rousey analogy..... in ballet shoes.

So.... who's sending me cash to do my next mod so it doesn't look "silly".... ? Anyone? [emoji13]
 
Careful, that fuzzy stuck on grass debris look may catch on and put the plasti dip folks out of business. :biggrin1: j/k

I checked on the sliders before I left for work this morning... they actually don't look bad at all. The primer was pretty dry by the time the dude started mowing, so I'm hoping they will be fine. The hammered paint works pretty good at hiding things too. :biggrin1:
 
[MENTION=112177]4RnR Grl[/MENTION] - what measurements did you get out of the lift? looks pretty high but not sure if its just the tires...

Asking bc I'm installing my billy 5100s soon and may need to wait on the tires for the moment sooooo.... I may be in ballet slippers for a bit (hope not).

I did not measure, but Scott at high tech did after the alignment. I believe he said it was around 39 or 40 measuring from the ground to the fender. I knew I would have to rock the ballet slippers for a short time but also knew that I needed the lift with bigger tires. I might also mention that my stock tires are nearly bald so it looks even more terrible. :mmph:
