Oops. Sorry man.
On a silly side note I want to do this mod. Then the insurance money will go towards bumpers and such! Lol

'Today' (over the past week or so)....
Added a 30" bar behind the lower grill, changed my poly sway bar bushings to the greasable ones with zerk fittings, and greased the driveshafts.
Starting a complete suspension overhaul on my wife's 04 limited tomorrow morning. No lift, just new shocks struts coils end links sway bushings upper and lower control arms and cam alignment bolts, to refresh her 110k+ mile stock suspension.

I printed off the pattern and traced a couple I still had left and made them, I've made them a couple times using different materials but this time is by far my favorite. Your gonna trip on this for all of the splash guards it cost me $7 bucks from Harbor Freight the U.S. General Tool Box Liner it's not your average rubber/ribbed drawer liner, it's a heavy smooth semi gloss matting just like a yoga mat and has a coating on it that you can wipe grim right off. I've some expensive materials and this by far is the best. BIf you need the templates just let me know.
U.S. General Matting 18" x 72" $7 bucks and 1 roll does the entire rig and some.

I haven't had issues with them so far. Used several of their bulbs for 6+ months for various applications. Only one that died is my fault because I shorted it out. (And blew the fuse for my tail lights and center console at the same time
) I wish the combined wattage were closer to the 5w on the stock '04 bulb, but the extra 2w over stock '04 wattage shouldn't be an issue Eventually I'll replace all the lights on the circuit with LEDs to lower overall power draw to below factory specs.
Well I can say that out trailer hitches are pretty sturdy. Just got rear ended and the guy hit the hitch. No damage to me but he has a nice dent in the front from me, and his rear bumper is bent from the guy who hit him. The only thing Im worries about is that 2 hours later and my neck is stiff and Im a little dizzy. Im thinking that since he hit my hitch instead of the bumper I took the full force of the impact through the hitch and into the frame. If its not better by morning Im heading to the Doc.

As someone who's had a spinal injury: don't be a tough guy. Go to the doctor!
Also: Mesa in the winter? Were any blue-hairs involved? :yuck:

How about I place an order? I love what you did man. I need some new one because the previous owner removed mine due to rubbing. But I want some exactly like yours. I'm talking exact.. I like the cutout for the coils and the fitment and everything. I'll take the template! But if you would like to just make extra for me I'd be more than willing to add some extra cash into your pocket! Lol, fine ass job If I must say!
Surprisingly no. Guy was maybe late 20's. Happened right at the infamous Mill ave on the 60. Anyone who has to drive that area knows how bad that little stretch of the highway is.
What did you have before? I've heard bfg at ko (the original all terrains) do well in snow but not great on ice.. Moving to Alaska on Sunday (from Phoenix) and a little worried
