Public trails? Looks a little muddy.

Yes, there’s a park 1.5 Miles from my house. Unfortunately, the trails don’t dry out until June...

Some of the ground was still frozen that day so it was actually muddier my next time out

I always liked the emblems on my wife’s 75th anniversary compass so I ordered a set of Black ones and tried to customize them. Not perfect, but they’ll work.

Those are sharp. Where are you mounting them?

Thanks. I’m either going to put them above or below the factory Wrangler / Unlimited sticker.

It was a pita taping them off to paint. Definitely a project that sounded easier in my head then in actual application.

Added some color to the WillysWheeler today. I’ve had everything gloss black or flat black for so long, it was time for a change.

Used satin army green on the D-Ring pins, EVO cutout, badges, and the rusted Method bolts.

Looks good! I like how your new badges turned out!

Today, I left my baby in the care of someone else for the first time since I brought her home. My wife actually asked if I was going to be okay as we pulled away. I’m not completely sure she was kidding.

That’s funny shit! Couple weeks ago someone other than my wife and I drove mine and I watched it leave until I couldn’t see it anymore. Lol

Wouldn’t you know it, I was. Dropped off for a regear and got the call that the Mopar LSD’s teeth were chipped. Guess I should’ve expected that running 37s...

Since I don’t have the money for a selectable, and really don’t have the money for a selectable + 35 spline shafts, another LSD is in my future. [emoji35][emoji35][emoji35]

That sucks. If they are available, the TruTrac is about the best you can get. Loved them in my TJ. For that application they were about 500 each.

Unfortunately, time is of the essence. I need to be able to wheel and tow in 23 days so I’m up against it time-wise.

I need to complete the break-in before that so I’m going with what they had. It’ll be a Yukon Dura Grip to go with the Yukon 5.13s.

Better get busy putting some miles on her so you can tow up to Coopers Lake :thumb:
