I made up a list a few days ago of all the stuff I had/wanted to do before the trip to clayton, and **** there was alot of stuff on there.
So my question is, just how much stuff do you still have to do to be ready? I know a few of the people I've talked with lately have a pretty long list
I have a short list...
"Certainly there is no hunting like the hunting of man and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never really care for anything else thereafter."

you still don't have bumpstops?
nope, dont need em with the 33's. i thought the driveshaft would hit the trtanny pan, but once i got it on there it didnt. if i go to 35's ill have to do something to keep them from rubbing the rear of the front fenderwell.
i've got quite a lot but not quite as bad since i have decided to leave the front 44 in for one more trip
unfreeze front right bleeder screw and bleed brakes
install zero rates
fawk with tie rod some trying to straighten it out a bit and protect it
finish new extened,heimed radius arms, and mounts.
new front ujoints
build rear antiwrap bar, if time allows
change oil
redo exhaust hangers
replace header gasket
wire up rock lights
install cd player
im sure there are more odds and ends
He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
I got all the parts, I just gotta do it.
Install-
drag link
front shims
rear u-bolts and spring plates
rear driveshaft
front driveshaft
power steering pump
p.s. hoses and fittings
change oil
head unit, 6x9's, and my old ass 10"

It's not too bad considering I have everything and it'll only take me about a full weekend at home to do it.

thats all robert? I figured the way you were talking you had much more to do
as for me, the only things I have to really do is clean the bastard off, check the fluids, and go, but there is a lot I want to do. I want to fix my leaking PS system, as well as add some more tubework and storage. Maybe even get ambitious and add a roof and hood in case its raining
