I actually pulled the door sensors out and unplugged them there. Really easy that way.

I finally got the ole girl out to see some rocks


even if it was with a vehicle of the enemy... toyotas :annoyed: better than a jeep tho


some videos of the trip

and some of the aftermath:
I am really glad I made a beefed up trail driveshaft


and I really need rock rings



I also smashed my rear diff pretty hard in that second video


so I finally stepped up my game


shouldn't have to worry about that anymore.



More pictures and videos to come! Thanks for looking :beer:

You'll love that cover. Bullet proof. I've got one on my 8.8 as well and it's well worth the money. I just need one for the 44 now...

The only thing that was odd to me was that some of the welds on the outside of it were cold and no tie in to the metal. The ones on the inside seemed to be fine tho, so hopefully no leaks...

I didnt notice it till I painted it. It looked fine before, but it was definitely visible with wet paint on it.
