I don't know what damage you're talkin bout Matt, those are performance modifications! Haha

But eh, I don't know if you remember how they looked before I left Blacksburg (pretty squarshed), but I guess it's just been gettin worse. Jus cause I only 2WD don't mean I aint been still wheelin hard :thumby: And then the other day when I was out helpin with an emergency search for somebody up in the mountains, I got a little stuck down a little spur trail. Spun my way outta that, but tapped a little rock I think as I was gunnin it up a hill...

Next thing I know my axles floppin around. I had to back it all the way off the mountain cause it kept wantin to ride back into my fender, haha. But I guess I coulda used my winch to hold it forward...

:roll: You're such a fucking redneck Matt.

Use that nice garage you have and fix your shit before it completely falls apart.

HA! :flipoff2: well all my redneck friends back here at home think I'm some kina city slicker!

But I been tryin to find some new axles altogether to throw under there, and you're gonna love this Alec... Think I found a set and they're from a Bronco :cool: That gonna be enough Bronco/non-TJ to grant entry into your shop?

And I can't very well use my awesome garage from back here in SW-by-God-VA y'all, but I'm doin my best!
