very happy for its first trip out
... did i mention i changed a few things?
sophia snapped a 5/8" grade 8 bolt in half off my ram.
it is just a ****ty design, i will cut it off and just put some tabs directly on the tie rod.
other than that the only carnage was a motor mount bolt went missing which was causing my shift linkage to pop out of its frame support (****ty jeep design) ... my pit crew took care of that throughout the day.
