Additionally I have no clue how to crank the T bars. So at this point should I go ahead and purchase those steering components and the add a leaf? The AC T bars would have to wait another couple pay checks if I went with this route. The calmini ones would even be a little further out if that was the recommendation. After said purchases, get in contact with you for installation assistance?

I would start off with the steering components and we can take a look at your front/rear ride height after we get those torsion bars adjusted properly. The single add-a-leafs that you have now may be enough.

We also need to figure out how I can get you that old centerlink so you can send it to Grassroots and avoid having to pay that core deposit. I'll shoot you a PM with contact info later this afternoon.

If we end up doing the meet and greet March 1 or earlier, you can hand over the center link then. My only concern with March 1 is I will be smack dab in the middle of a two-week jury trial, but I could at least try to make an appearance. I need to check, but I might have my old AC idler arm brace lying around somewheres

Whatever is clever. I threw out March 1st as a tester date and to give Captain Morgan enough time to have his rig ready. However if he thinks he'll be ready mid-February that's even better. I'm not sure if it'll be 4 of us total (Rok, NMTerras, Cap'n, and I) or more but it should be easy to find a workable day.

I'm good with whatever too, just let me know what you all want to do. I will be up to my neck in a locker/diff re-gear/transfer case re-gear for the next couple of months so y'all may have to excuse my semi-naked Sleeper build.

That's a very good question! Initially I was thinking like a BBQ hang out type of thing and just kinda getting to know everyone but I'd be down for whatever!

Very cool... if any of y'all need a place to stay, we have a couple of guest bedrooms here at rancho rokdaddy and a couple of acres to camp if that's how you roll.

I'm sure that Cruecible, NMTerras and I can come up with a good wheeling itenerary as well. -Rok

Well, if that's on the menu, I might get stuck riding with someone so that the wife can take the vehicle and go do something else, I'm not sure... I'm contemplating trying to spin it as a valentines "get out of town and go" weekend trip ;)

Guys, I start a two-week jury trial on Monday, February 24 in federal court. I will be neck deep in trial prep that weekend. I can maybe come out and meet everyone, but wheeling and extended partying are off the table for me. After the first week in March, I'm down for whatever.

2nd weekend in March then! lol, we'll figure this out eventually. I'm just anxious to pick up your goods Cap'n, which is probably affecting my decision to get the M&G earlier. I'm being selfish, and seriously though, March 8th or 15th will be splendid.

Either way, too late/too close to kiddo's 3rd birthday, no extra funds for trips like such then... :(

I figured that was probably the case ;) It looks like my timeline is being stretched a little anyways so this will work out great. Diamond Axle had a huge order come in over the holidays so there is a little delay. I am making up for that delay by possibly having a rear bumper with tire carrier built!

If you wanted, you could always head down and jump in someone's rig as co-pilot.
