Just took better pics today during the daylight... FYI.. the tires on it are just rollers.. as i cant fit it in the garage with my H1's

Okay.... After a long delay.. I finally have some pictures of my progress..

Well, after many beers or twelve... i finally finished fabricating a custom transfercase crossmember /skid plate for my 09. it give me about 2-3" more in clearance and will fully protect my doubler.... Just got done painting it with some rustproof primer and some good ole kryon OD green camo...

If i were you... i would use ORD's Steering brace, and possibly the Frame repair/ upgrade kit first... than maybe hydroassist.. This will at least strengthen your components, as these body style trucks are infamous for having... "weak" steering, especially if you do ANYTHING above a stock...
