Annnd it looks like I'm gonna be officially out for this one. Work won't budge and is going to force me to work.

So are you going to prep that bumper? It's only been 10 years or so?

Dislike, but if anyone gets it I do. The prep continues. Is it even a desert trip if you aren’t fixing/installing stuff up until the last second before you leave?!

Asset protection detail on high alert for neighbor pets this morning.

Nice Brad! I still have to make my solid-ish trans mount (urethane bushing like the engine mounts), fix my bumper light wiring, nut n bolt check, check hubs (pretty sure they need to be greased), possibly change the diff oil, some sound deadener, sound deadener front and rear firewalls, and top off with gas! Getting really excited. It doesn't look like Mojave area got much rain these past couple weeks, and should only get a fraction of an inch between now and the trip.

Get it son.

I'm trying to make this trip happen myself. Wifey just got a new job and she'll be at work so it may be the first Daddy Daughter trip and her first time camping in a tent.

We'll see how it all pan's out though.

Nice. My wife will be there in case her mommy instincts need to be called upon.

Checked out Soda Lake bed when driving to the Mint last weekend. I can confirm it looks like lake Havasu.

They are going on AccidentSon’s Toyota. 35x10.5 tensors already mounted on ‘them bitches. Just need to convert his front pussy 5x4.5 hub to 6x5.5. Maybe wheelspacer adapter, maybe T100 2WD upright/hub, maybe mod 4x4 uprights to work with his Amplified Performance sickboy LT kit, I dunno.

Anywhooooo, thanks again for the wheels!!
