i landed a lucrative contract awhile back that enabled me to recover from
the money lost on selling my house. with that im able to keep my rubicon
_and_ buy the new work truck that i need.
interesting enough, i tried hard to sell it for what....8-9 months(?) and
within 2 weeks of recovering and deciding to keep it i was offered what i
was asking for it. funny how some things just work out for the better.
were i a religious man i would swear someone was looking out for me.
so im moving forward with project rubi and loving every minute of it. fact
is im happy at stock height so ill add the winch, heavy duty custom bumpers
front and rear, and then spacers to bring me back up to stock height. i
have no intentions of lifting it like i did my last one. not only is she
awesome at stock height, but i dont want to sacrifice ride quality and
stability because im off camber a lot.

Nathan, have you changed out the TC skid, or do you have plans to? An inch
off the belly is worth two on the tire!
