That issue came out in January or February, if you were a subscriber then you should have received the issue by now.

Yep. The run was Labor Day 2012. I do believe it was jan/ feb 2013 magazine it was in.

It's the one with the ugly camo tacoma on the cover. (That's my best friend.)

Washer wasn't going with me (I don't even think we had it still). I was only dropping the dryer off at my sisters place in SA on my way to Alabama.

Diamond axle has been ordered. Brian said 4 weeks. We'll see what happens but I've got plenty of other stuff to order while I wait for the axle.

Another quick checklist..
So far I have:
Oil pan stuff.
Front 5.29 8" HP.
MC steering arms w/ 25mm pin kit.
Ifs hubs, knuckles for the front housing.
4" AP springs.
Frame plates.
The diamond axle was ordered today.

What I still need.
Steering box (ford forward swing) with shaft/ pitman arm as well as hydro lines.
Shock mounts/ shocks.
Front hanger kit from front range.
Front Taco brake kit from front range and brake lines.
Probably a lot of stuff I'm forgetting.

Rear suspension stuff will most likely be 5" pickup springs/ kit from Allpro.
Need to pick up a tundra/ T100 rear axle.

I can tell you're tired of waiting to see this thing with a solid axle.

No way! I'm excited to see that, but I've always loved seeing you conquer things with your setup. I just see it as a transition and the next thing that you want... And you're going to have it... with some super nice stuff therein... That just makes me happy ... Oh, yeah, it doesn't hurt that you are not an ass hat! Lol

I'm sure I'll just start conquering trails that people say "man you need 40's+ before you can do this trail.."

You want a picture of my bank statement? How about a screenshot of my 45 minute call with Brian at Diamond?

After watching you wheel that on trails some buggies have trouble with, that is a prophecy that will come true

Well, a bank statement won't work cause apparently he hasn't charged it.
But I'll tell you this much, I sure as hell didn't waste 45 minutes of his time for nothin.
