OK now Im at a dilema, which one to get. Il see how much crap I gotta pay of, and if i got the money I need for a side draft, then side draft it is. If not, then my-fi here I come. On a lighter note, my RRO coil conversion / 8in lift came in yesterday (to the cousins house) and it looks amazing. Great welds, great materials, all around awesome. My coils aren't in yet, I called Kyle over at RRO and I requested some higher rate springs from him, for all the extra bumper, spare tire weight. Hope you guys like it.
     Oh and I'm thinking of powerdcoating it all like a black or dark grey. How should I "treat" the diffs???  Any suggestions, something durable, and "cool" looking. I do have about 3 gallons of bed-liner at home, if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Looks good.  :)

I would just paint the bottom parts with some primer and spray paint.  That way when you scrape the coating off on the rocks it is easy to re-paint to the same color.  :)

Yeah that sounds like a good idea, cuz I damn sure will be scraping the bottom of that thing across every rock in the western USA!!!  And there is no point ruining perfectly good powercoat.

Ok, money came in, and since I have a whole lotta stuff to take care of back home, I went with the my-side II intake. its a hell of a lot cheaper, and I have yet to hear a single complaint about it. I also got the t-case and tranny bushings that are made of brass from ZOR, has anyone tried these things, are they good??  I'm sort of getting tired of carrying spare bushings.
     Also does anyon know....

- go with a dual battery mount, or move electicity to the back??
- a good intake/snorkel system. I dont mind going pvc pipe, but I prefer pre-made.
- tube door, I saw a topic about one of the guys here that made them, and they look bad a$$
- Rhino line the entire inside/outside, or just inside?

I have the brass shifter sheet in my T-case.  It made a huge difference in how my T-case shifted, super smooth and solid feeling.  Defiantly a good upgrade!

Some club members are running the aluminum t-case bushings.  The only issue is if your drive lines vibrate at all, usually due to u-joints going out, you get a lot of noise transmitted to the chassis.

Did you buy the new carb with the MS2 or are you looking for a used one? For your tube doors both TT and Desertrunnerfab makes a set.

Yeah I got the new 44mm carb to go with the package. Should be fun to get home and see how much of a difference that makes. Thanks for the info on the doors il go and check that out now. And im not too worried about the driveline vibes cuz of u-joints, I love all my trucks, and take better care of them than myself :)  you guys know exactly what i mean 8)
