So how many of you have installed your chistmas presents yet? My crawler box is still sitting on my workbench. How about the beadlocks and spools Camo? Anyone else get some goodies for Christmas installed?

my list is looking like this:
Replace both broken birfields
Replace bent tie rod
Install crawler box
Rework drive lines
Install wide rear axle
Install york compressor (collecting dust for too long)
Install front axle shims- need better pinion angle

Maybe i'll be done by next christmas..

I mounted one just for shits and giggles. I'm repainting the rings black, but I wanted to get an actual height.

Rims and tires are mounted on the truck and the one piece rear d-shaft is on it's way. Just have to figure out how to get the heater motor to work and I can get it out and play in the snow.

Yeah... The word "CRISIS" is in Blood Red letters.. :) She also had coveralls made with that slogan ironed on the back... can't say she doesn't have a sense of humor.

I'll post a pic when I get the sign hung up in the shop.. :D

Bob the back end, sand everything down mostly smooth, prime it and paint it, and you'll be lookin 1,000% better...

That's what I did to mine. You can hardly tell the passengers side was dented up so bad the door wouldn't open with the new (flat) paint:

Didn't get any actual truck parts, but i got some clamps and stuff that I used to make my flatbed while I'm off from school. Still finishing up a few little things (needs recovery points, a hitch maybe, and back up lights, i've been driving it around for a while though). I'll post some pics soon.

Yup - not until the shop is done. Tape and Mud left... Then paint, benches and toools!

BTW - why don't you just build yerself a whole new frame - it'd be faster ...
