Got the truck back from ORW with a new stack of deaver springs and 40" Procomp Xterrains, put on a Maghytec rear differential, chopped my exhaust that used to come straight out the back but was interfering with the rear heavy duty winch bumper that I just finished laying the last bead on (still needs powdercoat), took the swing away tire carrier I fabbed to line-x, welded up a pair of fox 2.5 bump stops and 3 ply limiting straps in the rear. I've been working since 6am. Now I just need to paint the bump stop mounts and limiting strap tabs. I'll save that for tomorrow.

First time here .... I removed and remodeled my SkyFi XM set up, cleaned a little, loaded up some trash, took wife and dog to supper dropping trash off on way, then we took a ride through the evening and got ice cream cones in a small town Tastee Freeze.

After driving around for 17 months without a front license plate I finally got stopped buy what appeared to be a LE Officer fresh out of the academy. No written ticket but did receive a verbal to get it on. I decided to go with a retractable type.

Finally got my X-pipe put on. No it wasn't glued on, that's some kind of anti-corrosive paint.
