    No rims yet. Got to get the axle fixed and bumper shipped up first. Then we'll see how much money I've got left over. Stupid toyos are $300/ea for the 285/75R17s I want

    Dropped it off to get the axle fixed this morning. Progressive only cut the check for $2k... I was told I should fight it, and try and get more, but I'd rather this just be over with.

    Shop called... frame was moved up 7mm and a leaf spring was bent. They ordered a new spring and straightened the frame already, but need my truck for another day to replace the spring. Luckily the Insurance is covering all that

    that's sucks dude. Goes to show even the smallest accident can cause frame damage. I like that blue lake off road bumper.
