Wrapped up the weekend with the EVO Protek System and Adam's 1350 driveshaft.

Front PS Diff Cover to match the rear.

Dirty Dog pet barrier

Not bad transformation in 2 1/2 months

Is that an RTIC 45 or 65? I ordered a 65 and wanna see how well it'll fit in the back... Also nice transformation!

Good looking upgrades and well chosen.

It's the 45, I know the 65 will fit but with my other gear it would be tight. I'll throw the 65 on the hitch basket if needed.

I bet, there's quite a few things I would do different if I started over.

How hard was the pinion nut to remove?

Looks good, I gotta keep my eye open for you. Not too many Commando Green rigs running around.

On my red jeep I didn't have any issues but this time it was either over torqued down or too much locktite. I could not break it loose with my impact or breaker bar. Moteaux came over with his C02 and impact, then it broke free.

I've only seen one other one in the Houston area so far. I'll be on the look out as well.

Interesting, I had the same problem on mine. I needed and extra long breaker bar and floor jack to apply upward pressure in order to break it free. Maybe just all the 13 CG rigs?

I had issues with my front pinion nut too, I was able to take it off with an electric impact, I had tried with a 24" breaker bar and put a jack on it underneath and that sucker wouldn't budge.
