got bored last night, my buddy Ryan called, i had grinding wheels and an XJ on 33's...

here's last night's shenanigans... the dude in the pics is my buddy Ryan, or hippie metal on sisoffroad.com, cutting one side to show me how it was done since i'd never cut fenders and was scared shitless of doing it. of course he leaves me the side with the washer bottle... i nicked it a bit and it had a tiny tiny breach but some JB weld fixed that.

These are some preliminary flex tests on a small wood pile near my barn... i maxed out on my Skyjacker shocks but within a week my new remote reservoir Edelbrocks should be in

lemme know what you think for my first time near a grinding wheel
