New sway bar is an amazing difference. I'm super happy with it so far.
Got the upper light bar and the gmrs antenna installed after powdercoating the mounts today.
Took it on a drive to the gym, and holy wind whistle. It was bad enough I stopped and got some tape to make sure I could get rid of it before weatherstripping it out.
It's so much quieter without the rack on and I'm glad I pulled it.
I'm ready to head up to Ouray tomorrow!

Day two, Arrastra Gultch and the Mayflower Mine.
I have a ton more pictures, but this was a super fun run, and the mine is astounding.

Day three, Memorial run to the Miniehaha mine for Terry Lane, a good friend that passed last year.
@Broski, @Mesa Woman, @POTATO LAUNCHER, @TheBlackSheep, and a few others.
We were lucky enought to be able to bring Shay, Terry's widow along with us for for SAS, and this was a very fitting sendoff for our friend.

Day four, ladies run (I let my mom and sister run away with the cruiser lol) and fixing @Beardzilla82. Not many pictures that day, but I did get stuff back broken lol.
It's probably my fault, but I had a sway bar end cap back off and the sway bar arms and shims fall off the driver side.
A few washers and it was all fixed.
We ended getting Chris fixed up and went on a night run up to Silver Lake to go look at stars. It was a little too cloudy, but a fun run nonetheless.
The singular shaky picture I got of that run lol.

More rear bumpering. Got the corners in and welded today.
I really like a lot of rake on bumper caps, but it makes it a lot more of a pain.
I decided to challenge myself and get gaps close enough to tig.it makes grinding and finishing so much easier and it's good practice for me.
