I didn't participate in any parades today because I don't have it off and recently rearranged my vacation time so I could help my brother move to Ft. Sill next month. But....I did bring my coworker and vet friend Dave to Texas Roadhouse for his free Veterans lunch. I gotta tell you that place...
I'm going down this road with my Jeep TJ and the M-151 shackle mounts (Thanks Armada!) and wanted to share what I've been doing to make the Mutt mounts fit.
As you can see the bracket holes don't quite line up with the tow hook's so it requires drilling, but I wanted to preserve as much metal...

I'm thinking the "blue" diesel you picked up from an Irving Station or US distributor. For the Southern folks, Irving is a Canadian fuel company and their refinery is in St. John New Brunswick. Supposedly Irving diesel is specifically refined for winter use vs U.S. produced diesel which gets...
Figured the Alternate Fuels forum is a good home for this.
