Well it's been a good run, it's been a long process and it's been a fun road getting my truck from when I bought it until now.
Day 1 delivered to my in-laws house:

Today as it sits:


I've had a lot of help, a lot of assistance, and a lot of people who have helped me make my decisions along the way. Some I listened to and some I ignored, but I think it came out pretty good. There are many people but the members who stick out are [MENTION=127788]USMC_0316_RAIDER[/MENTION] [MENTION=156902]Brian@TruckImage.com[/MENTION] [MENTION=156901]Billy@TruckImage.com[/MENTION] [MENTION=127892]2012platinum[/MENTION] [MENTION=63858]KingRanch4Life[/MENTION] [MENTION=12340]Desert Dawg[/MENTION] [MENTION=50229]smcox1[/MENTION].

For an unknown amount of time, it is looking like I am going to be very limited on the mods I can do to the truck. After an injury sustained during my first deployment in 2009, an injury I still fight to deal with today, I am going to be medically separated in the next few months. It sucks, I'm not looking forward to it, but unfortunately it is what it is. That being said, the order I had placed with RaptorRetrofits had to be cancelled and any big plans have been put on an indefinite hold. Still gonna be around, and still gonna hopefully be able to help others out but the Screw is gonna sit this way for a while now.

Again, thank you to everyone I've enlisted the help of, bugged with questions and comments and helped increase my knowledge to get my truck to where I have it today.

All's well that ends well I guess.

-David

Thanks man, I just had a couple big plans left but they're gonna have to wait now. I'm hoping for a quick ish recovery but it's been 4.5 years since it happened so I'm not crossing my fingers.

Thanks man, I hope so. Hopefully the 120-180 days they've said I have left is all I need to get this fixed and can then get back to modding this thing parked in my driveway.
