Cool, I won't turn down a hand, but it looks like it should be something really simple. Wait, unless you are looking for an excuse to come up here and hang out. In that case, yeah, I think this replacement will be brutal, at least a three man, 1/4 barrel of beer job.

Deffinetly a 5-8 hour job that involved a lot of modification and beer!

My boot looks exactly like this after yesterday's trip. First time out with lift and discos. Checked the boot half way through and all was well unless the "one last trail" syndrome set in... I heard an awful bang on the way down one last hill and I thought I broke something up front or a coil somehow magically slipped out (I had just seen and heard that happen to a stock sahara using the momentum technique to get up the same hill and it looked painful) but turns out the front breather hose popped off with authority. I'm actually heading up to Fredericksburg VA today until the end of Feb and I don't plan on attempting to wrestle with the pinion nuts with a breaker bar in the Hilton parking lot in the middle of winter so no DS until March.

wrestling with pinion nut with breaker bar= no fun.. Picking up a cordless impact= lots of fun.

Took about 5 minutes of feeling like I was gonna break the bar and off to by an impact I was
