Finally got around to making some slimline nerf bars from the stock mounting hardware and 1-1/4" steel pipe. I primarily.made them to deflect rocks and road debry. Hopefully they will protect the body a little over having nothing at all. Also got part of the bug out kit and rear tire rack back on. Sent from my SM-J327P using Tapatalk

Yes, trans can be service/rebuilt. Unfortunately when reverse goes out its usually, but not always, a condition of the reverse clutch drum snap ring failing and this cant be fixed unless the transmission is disassembled. This is a common issue with the RE4R01A automatic transmission on these vehicles

Went on a weekend shake down trip for the new suspension in the Cascades. I can really see why I’ve never heard a complaint about the ARB OME struts & HD springs. That’s a 97# bumper on there and the truck has never driven smoother or tighter. I’m looking forward to an A-Arm poly upgrade. I find the Land Rover 9448s a little rough but they improve with some load.[mention=37543]TowndawgR50[/mention] thinks part of the rear issue may be my Tyler Morgan control arms as his truck is smoother in back. I’m running his old Bilstein 5100s while we figure out the right 5165s so that may be contributing as well. I think I’m getting a little top out now & then. Thanks again to[mention=37543]TowndawgR50[/mention] who consumed three whole afternoons (until Midnightish) working with me to change everything over. It honestly would never have happened without him.
