Default Awesome time!

First time putting that thing in 4wd and it was a blast! Everyone was very helpful and I was impressed with what I could do with the stock Rubi.Thank to all you guys!

Looking to work some overtime to get that lift and new shoes on quicker...

Kim and I had a great time as usual! Thanks Tom for the bumper help! 4 hour drive home...load pics when I get there. The car wash guys gave me the wide eyes and sent me to prewash in the bay! Can't believe how much mud was on him!

Home by 3p, power washed the thing and applied scratch x! haha Scratch X did a great job to "mask" the days activities from the wife. I do have the "list" now for upgrades. I just have to convince the boss that they are must haves vs must wants.

Just wanted to post up and say thanks to everyone who came out! It was great making a ton of new friends, and catching up with a few old friends while wheeling and camping this weekend!
