Spent a couple hours up close and personal.

Unboxed these beauties.

Took it back to the shop. Member that popping sound I mentioned? When working on it they bent a mudflap somehow. The wheel rubbed on the mudflap when turning left. Crisis adverted.

Got the rpg brackets installed. FYI not a fun project to do alone LOL

I did the same thing on Big Blue by myself and the whole fcking hood shifted on me, it was not fun. Nice job.

At least it sits nice.

Looks great. I'm assuming they also aligned it too? Be sure to do that, if not already done. You did the Eibachs up front, did you do anything in the rear? Are you planning on running 37's? If so, I think those mud flaps will pose a problem.

Alignment getting done this week. It already needed one.

I won't be running 37s. the 35s are plenty sufficient. Mainly my truck is going to be used for overlanding and light trails in the PNW whenever I don't take my OBS bronco. I plan on doing the deavers in the rear eventually but that is down the road.

I’m 850 miles into an eastbound 1000+ mile trip and stopped for gas (again).

My lie-o-meter said I had 20 miles to empty, I have a 26 gallon tank. Never trust, especially when towing.

a credit card and a phone will get you out of that situation. just do what 99% of people do and call for help you know, instead of being prepared. i always carry 10 gallons of spare gas in my bed as well as a tool kit incase something breaks.

Was it the Raptor that lied or the gas pump? I wouldn't be surprised if that pump meter was off.

Since I’m not staying still much these days, I can say I have all of these items, except only 5 gallons of extra gas.
