Did your front driveshaft come off easily? Mine still wont come off. And how was drilling into the frame crossmember and bolting in the support brackets? i still need to do that.

Your wheels are a little big for my tastes, but the truck still looks good.

As for drillin the holes, its cake, I just tried going to big too quick and caught the burr and... well... the drill kicked my *** !

Not too mention I was just dog tired. I am here today and tomorrow. Friday, I might be down at the shop real early (we are closed Friday) doin last minute tweaks on the Samurai, so thats an option too, but tryin to get out and up to the Mountain as quick as I can. PM me or give me a call !
