D'oh! That sucks. I'll keep an eye out for deals.

Love this shot of you guys airing down so I thought I'd post one from my recent trip:

Here we are airing back up, re-connecting our sway bar links, and buttoning up our soft tops . . . really, I promise.

Not sure . . . was cleaning Wilbur today and noticed he had a awful case of rock rash on his tummy. Got him taken care of though, and sprayed some nice soothing Rustoleum ointment on the worst of it. He looks and feels almost good as new except I can't get him to stop whining about some bug he says he swallowed on the drive back home from the park.

Thats to funny! I need to get some good skid plates also, my gas tank skid looks like shredded cheese. I think it holds less fuel now that it has so many dents in it. Oh well thats part of it. You think you'll go a little higher on the lift?

Not sure. I've thought about it, but I want to keep a low(er) center-of-gravity. Could do that by going with larger tires, but then I'd need new wheels, a body lift, fender mods, etc . . . what a pain.
