sorry i have been such a bitch on pictures. i ran over my phone with the moving truck AND the ex so the cameras are ruined, but i ordered some new ones. I lost my actual digital camera in one of my many vehicles or places i lay my head. Therefore, i have no pictures of it painted... Or the ram setup... or the new stuff i got for the broken interior stuff...:sad:

I did take it playing a little more on some family land. Found out i can run over/through a barbed wire fence 4 times without puncturing a tire. (Don't ask... I have a shitty sense of direction... Why i own a GPS)

Also found out my drop pitman arm is hitting the ram. This is not good. Going to the JY Tuesday to see what i can find that will correct this problem.

The plan is to raise the whole draglink up 1/4-1/2" using misalignments on the knuckle side, and higher arm on the box side.

Truck also has a really hard starting issue i haven't plugged into yet.

you and me both bud! I can still wheel it, just have to be careful. I am hoping to get it knocked out here within the next week or so. I drove the ol gal out to the shop today. Tires ride like shit, but real stable thanks to the Hydro-assist

finally have some shots of the ex painted. Still need to raise the drag link, hoping to get that done this week, as we are heading to meet John next weekend.
