Another update for you guys. Everyones diff covers have been shipped, except for those that requested paint. Those I am letting cure a little longer before shipping due to the extreme cold weather we have been having, so I wanted to make sure the paint set right so it didn't stick to the packaging.

Rear bumpers, well, still working on them, but they are starting to ship out one at a time. These things are a lot of welding. Each one takes a full day of welding and finishing, on top of the jig fitting and test fitting each one to an actual KJ so there will be no fitment issues when they arrive.

Skink Sliders. Those take a long time to cut out all the pieces, and with my full schedule and slow bandsaw, I decided the guy that does the bending of the super skink outer tubes for me will also cut out all the parts for the sliders as well since he has more time and several industrial size bandsaws. To give you an idea of how good of an idea this was, it took me about 3 hours to cut out one complete set of sliders. He just knocked out seven sets for me in four hours today. So now all I have to do is throw the pieces in my jig and weld. Much more efficient, and wish I had thought of it sooner. So expect it to take less time to put these things together and get them out the door.

So, I am trying to get things moving much more efficiently, and contracting out the slider parts alone took a huge weight off my shoulders.

I can vouch for the quality of Marty's products, my skink sliders have saved my @$#% plenty of times, and I haven't even wheeled with 'em that much. If I was keeping the KJ I'd definitely be in line for some bumpers, those things look schweet.

Just keep up the good work Marty! No problem waiting for good quality stuff. I know I got a great deal so no way am I going to complain yet. Matter of fact, if anyone behind me in the ordering process just can't wait anymore, you can send them one of my rear bumpers and send mine later.
