Mojave Road preparations in progress.

Removed all the skid plates
Changed all fluids
Raised the rear end
Re-Installed the rad skid.

Going bottom less for this run. Hopefully lightening the load just a bit.

Na... just me. I took them off to do all the fluids. I just left them off. I never removed the gas tank skid and only reinstalled the rad skid.

That is the factory lower mount, sheared in half.
   Spent the weekend in Kennedy and Troy Meadows. Did some wheeling and fishing...then noticed it yesterday night. I'm not sure when it happened but I drove it home, 5 hrs, like that.
