Braynsfab is currently in the process of building my fenders so for now I have cut stock ones courtesy of Lance.

I think they are suppose to be bent towards the body and attached like the others with nutserts. We are going to hack them off...

No. our only run were gonna make this year besides that New Years day run will likely be TJDaves Little Naches run in October. Just too many expensive projects at our new house taking up too much of our time and money... I have a ton of play in my drag link and track bar. I need to replace those before October or else I wont be making that run either...

Originally they were getting them but after we installed them I decided against it.

Looks fantastic! The word "tactical" comes to mind. Maybe add a gun turrett...


You may want some kind of mud flaps or flares in the rear to keep the popo from bothering you.

These would be good, too: http://spicerparts.com/products/axle/automotive/ultimate-60

You're going to be taking dirt baths without rear fender flares and possibly a few rock shots as well.

Not a good idea on a street driven vehicle. It's not legal to have your tires stick out that far without some kind of flare. Maybe make them detachable so you can pull them off when you hit the trail.

After FS1302 a couple weeks ago I finally got my power steering fixed. It turns out it was the pump that failed. I "Got in the zone" and picked one up from AutoZone but while attempting to pull the pulley off the old pump the flange broke so I had to buy a new pulley. once the pulley arrived it turns out the install tool one of my techs here at Nissan has doesn't fit so I had to run it over to Lithia so my buddy Pat Clark could walk it on the new pump for me. just my luck, he has the same install kit as every technician in town and his doesn't work either ><. at that point I checked with their parts dept only to find out that they don't sell the pump as an assembly, only separate as well... Holy mother of god what the hell am I gonna do now...??? text Brad with Snap On and asked him where he was. drove like a bat outta hell to meet up with him at West Coast Auto in the AutoPlex. showed him what I was trying to accomplish and what tool I needed and he says "no problem" and proceeds to grab the same damn tool kit that every technician in town has and guess what...? no workey >< At this point im about to cry. As it just so happens he has an "older" kit on a top shelf in the way back of the truck made by Blue Point that had the right adaptor in it and $131.00 later I have the only kit in town that I'm aware of that can press on a pulley for a 2010 JKU. :lol:
