Went ahead and installed a catch can after breaking the factory PVC connection. Next step is to clean the TB and get the rest of the new intake on once parts come in

Color match LineX??:)

Nah, gotta have some black to break up all the white. Was never a fan of those rigs where everything is color matched lol
I have thought about having my rear fenders color matched with line-x to protect them from road rocks and stuff, however white line-x is tricky and will look like crap if it starts to yellow lol.

Let’s play a game, who wants to guess why we’re stopped in Amarillo on our road trip to Denver?

Ahhh the famous old question, the answer is it depends! Are you doing the work? Or is a shop? Dana 44? Dans 60? Coil springs? Leafs? A built locked axle or an open axle? The answer is it can done for less then 5k doing it yourself buying an already built Dana 44 or you can spend 30k it all depends

I didn't want to say anything until it was officially in my possession but im too excited. So barring any hiccups, I am the new owner of a used rancho lift kit. Only bought the front from the seller, didn't need the leaf springs as ill be doing a spring over in the rear (and they only add to the shipping costs). Its missing some pieces like bolts and some bushings, but the big parts are there. I'm going to have it cleaned up and re-coated while i collect parts. Wasn't really the order i wanted to do things in, but the deal was there and I had to pounce before someone else snagged the kit.

Yeah I thought about that but we’re in Estes Park and definitely need 4wd. My H3 is sitting in my buddies driveway until Tuesday when we can dig into it, until then I’m driving an xterra... 5speed and supercharger model, could be worse. We’re thinking it’s the tcase now

Exactly how I did it. Buy new grade 10.9 bolts from McMaster-Carr or reputable seller. There are a few things to modify before you get started. Good luck.

Exactly what I planned, was basically going to walk into a fastenal with the bolt list and say...I need this lol. Going to modify the cross-member to make steering rack repairs easier.
Is the rear lower control arm busing the same as the factory one?
