Hey now! 😬😬😬
But I know your taking care of her. Enjoy that DTD why you have it.
Next weekend if Naboo is not up and running take her out and stretch her legs. 🤘

Yep that thing needed a balance after touching the gas tank skid and a couple rocks. So thanks for swapping it with Naboo and getting in the shop. Nicely done!

i will figure that out on the first test drive. however Naboo is already loud with the soft top and half door anyway. so i probably wont notice.

you should join us since you will have your axles all set up around the same time.

I think Mel told me to drive 500 miles but Drew told me I was fine to drive to Moab, wheel and drive back to LA which is what I did. I think the bigger gears aren’t as sensitive to miles as the smaller ones but to help the front just keep your front hubs locked the whole time.
