Not up here it ain't!

Shhhh! Mike doesn't know that!

You want the pics? You can't handle the pics!

First off, I got my belltechs and got a bumper of a buddy's Dakota at work.

This is my camber issue.

And the build pics, in a loosely chronological order. I have one pic of the passenger's side tossed in there. I did them on separate days however.

My welds wont win any beauty contests but they will hold the washers from slipping.

New shocks up front.

The finished product, positive camber FTW.

Notice how I chocked the tires, tired of driving past people working on their cars on ramps and jacks without chocking their tires. It's sketchy stuff.

Yayyyyyyy positive camber!

P.S.- I handled the pics.

So I picked up a little round 6" light for a reverse light to mount on the last tab of my light bar. I also figured since I was going to paint my tailgate I would have some fun. I wrote "Jeep Recovery Vehicle" along the top in a sharpie. Let's see how low until dad notices

Also looking at buying a little cheapo $25 class ABC fire extinguisher to mount somewhere in the truck, building up a rig like this I'm scared off ending up in the middle of nowhere and having some stupid incident make me have to watch my truck burn to the ground because I didn't want to spend $25.

Smart man. I don't even mess with my truck all that much and I still keep one in my tool box.


Just keep an eye on it, the pin on my first one worked itself out and the dang thing discharged in my toolbox. It's a good thing it was in it's own little storage tray compartment, otherwise all my tools would've been turned yellow.
