Yeah, last weekend was pretty awesome. I think we did ~700 miles, almost 200 off the pavement. Saw like 3 other vehicles.

Looks awesome. Million dollar que$tion: how much did this cost? Also: any body work involved?

Last weekend sprayed it with Raptor liner Dove Grey. I used 4 bottles, but really needed 6 to do the exterior and the bumper.

I like the color, and would love to do mine with that, while leaving some sections of the red showing. Did you get it already tinted, or buy the tint locally?
Got a delivery. 1.5 hours later, fully installed. Including 30 minutes to find the TEQ sticker.

Over the weekend, I drove from Atlanta to Moab. My wife hit the easy button and flew in and out of Canyonlands Intergalactic Airportal. She was a good sport and went with me and one of the Cruise Moab trail leaders to pre-run Top Of The World. And yes, this is as far as she would let me drive toward the edge.
2350 miles so far. Only problem was a no-start while on the trail at Elephant Hill. A 2x4 up against the *new* starter, and she fired right up. I'm not sure what was going on there...

Wife is going to kill me but the supercharger is ordered
Forgot to mention... 15.7mpg on last fill-up. Take that, suckers!

This happened yesterday. Not the weekend, but so many aren't...
It doesn't look like much at first glance. While changing out springs I had the wheel off and the Jack stand positioned (improperly). I disconnected the sway bar and when I removed the shock the axle dropped hard. The Jack stand slid along the curve of the frame and caught on the swaybar bracket mounting bolt. That's why I still have a head attached to my shoulders.
I lifted the axle with a couple of bottle jacks, got the tire back on, and took the picture once everything was stabilized.
Moral of the story: remember propper jack placement and live right.
BTW: I hate these tires. They were on it when I bought it. Anyone who buys this rig should upgrade. They are soft little baby tires.

Glad you're ok. That's fxxxing scary.
This has been going on for a while, but lots of work this past weekend. Continuing to cut and chop my way around the truck. Started by cutting out the huge empty cavity in the rear quarters.
Big difference in clearance
Than it was time to seal up the openings
Then it got serious. Cut off the frame right in front of the body mounts. With the initial cuts I made for the 4x4 Labs bumper, the frame is probably a good 15" shorter now.
Bolted a 2x6 plank to the body mounts. Will add a small bushing here later to isolate the cab from the steel plank. Essentially this will become a rear bumper with integrated body mounts.
The sides under the rear quarters will have another 2x6 section which I plan on cutting at angle like so. Simple with lots of clearance.
