Just my temp ride, but I washed Drews truck ( think it's the first bath it's had) I needed it clean to see how much body work I have to do. Found I just a few sm dent besides the cab/tailgate, and a ton of scratches....lol
LOL, I usually just rinse off the mud. I'm not sure if I've ever washed it.

Funny how ALL the damage is on the passenger side, huh?

Sounds like you need a better spotter in the passenger seat to me :)

Same thing I did with my Fox coilovers. I swapped out the 14" coils for 16".

lol.... I'll do what I can, most are easy fixes. I tried to get that nasty film off the inside of the windshield so I could see but Damn.... :(

A little denatured alcohol will do the trick. That film has taken hours and hours of offroad driving to develop.

Shit...I think it's past that point, my cousin has some 24" rims with boggers that I'm thinking about mounting up and taking to the mall...lol

Yeah, I just pulled in, and Randt send me a text about his diff leaking oil when he got home.

After we left the shop, I went to McDonalds, then slept in my truck for about an hour and a half. Driving home sucked ass, but I loaded up on free coffe at NTB, so it wasn't TOO hard to stay awake. But I haven't slept more than 10 hours in the last 72 and just popped 3 benedryl, so I'll probably be asleep till tomorrow morning.

When I blew my diff in "The Hammers" there was a guy in an FJ that would 'bleed' on the rocks with his red BB's.
