Personally, I like the strap idea. If you use a cummins turbo diesel to pull on it you could just end up replacing everything anyways, or was it a powerstroke, I can't remember.
Be sure to position your vehicle so that it's near impossible to move first though, that way it doesn't just slide and you get the best overall result when pulling on the axle.
No offense Jake, just giving you crap and I always laugh at that video of the guy getting tugged out and his axle twisting out from under the jeep.......

Thinking of making 2 runs, one down each side and branching off to sensors. Also thinking bout doing away with computer and going msd ignition

Got the rest of the metal today for the roof rack, so PTMike, tomorrow at My Three Sons at 3 sound good to you? also, cheese or pepperoni?
Also, a question of painting it, should I just go and buy bedliner or primer and paint it (either way I'm spray-painting it)
