Returned the battery I just got because my buddy's dad hooked me up with a free one
Also got an application for a second job so I can actually do some stuff to it

Kind of a crappy picture, but you get the idea... Trimmed up my rear fenders this morning (cut and fold minus the lower 1/4s). I'll get to the lowers a little later when I have the extra time and resources to weld in new metal. they're pretty rotten...
I also think it's just about time to step up to some 33s

Had a rattling coming from under the floor board and you could feel it at low speeds for the past week and could mimic the sound by playing with the front drive shaft, so today I took out my front drive shaft to find that the yoke to the transfer case can wiggle a hair, I'm guessing its the bolt that keeps it in place but it's much quieter now without the weight of the shaft on it

Sure is. I'm surprised at how sturdy it is.. I got it for $50 too. It was already on sale for $75, but the box was open so they said $50 LOL I said SOLD.

Nice. Local store has a few left and I've been thinking about one, save some times versus building one. Would you mind sending me over a couple of closer pics? lol

This is identical to mine, same CB too haha. What did you use for a bracket? I used a metal ruler, cut down to size, drilled holes for the sun-visor screws, and painted black.

Still getting used to this phone.. can't reply to your message.
I just picked it up from the hardware store. Can't remember exactly what it was but it already had a bunch of holes in it. Of course none of them came in handy, I had to drill more.

Yeah, no worries! I'll snap a couple tomorrow morning and shoot them your way. I strap my spare to it when I wheel and it works great. The oem rails are crap and shakey though lol check out the last page of my build, theres some pics up there with the spare on it...
