So me,Marc, and julie went down to Robs (Rajharley) to do some mods weve been wanting to do to our rigs... so we head out their butt as early sat morning.... All i can say about the weekend is that i had a great time... i hope to do it again soon...although we didnt get to do everything on our lists we still got a lot done... here is a list of what we did

Robs Rig:
  • Ball Joints
  • Installed Ranch Hand Bumper
  • Installed Recon Dually Fender Lights (smoked)
  • Installed brighter Xenon bulbs

My Rig:
  • Wired up My winch :)
  • Wired up all my off-road lights on my bumper
  • Installed my front driveshaft
  • Fixed a loud crack noise under the front end (ended up being a washer put into the wrong place during the lift)
  • Wired up my fan on my secondary tranny cooler
all we didnt end up doing was install my cab lights and door sill.. but that should be done in the next couple of weeks :)

I want to say thanks to Rob, Marc and everyone else that played a part in this weekend....

Ill post up pictures later once its dark enough to turn on the lights :)

-Raul

I rented the tool from Napa for free and it took two evenings to get the ball joints out and back in. Only reason it took two evenings is I broke the first tool. Then took it back to Napa and they had to send out for the tool from another store so I went to Chinafreight and got one of their tools. Bent the harbor freight tool like it was putty and by the next day had the new OTC tool from Napa to finish up the project.

The hardest part was making the seal driver for the knuckle.

Otherwise just basic time consuming wrenching, nothing brainy about it.
