Is that the 3M protective film? That is some great stuff, if so!

Love the lights, BTW.

Mine has the gas tank skid plate bolted to those holes and then i have some more holes along the frame rail too

Replaced the Pitman arm lower shaft seal- and what a job it was. Getting the pitman arm off was a b%tch. To get out the seal had to start the engine, turn the wheel and let the pressure blow it out. Replaced all components, added PS fluid, steers like new. TBH I helped my shade tree mechanic- he was the star.

Z, your truck is going to look awesome with those L wheels.

99, my pitman was a real pain too. Especially since the pickle fork can damage the pump. Feels great when it's done though.
