Separating from someone you care about is hard and there's really nothing good about it. All you can do is stay positive, lean on those close to you when you're have a rough day, hold your kids tight/tell them how much you love them, and pray.

Before we got married Katie and I both read "The 5 Love Languages" by Gary D Chapman. I highly suggest everybody read that book if your married, in a relationship, or want to be in a relationship. It talks about how all people have a different love language. It can range from touch such as hugs to acts of service such as washing the dishes or close. I struggled before reading this book and it helped immensely. Now it didn't cause a light switch to flip but it did help me figure out what katies love language was so I could be a better person for her.

Aside from all of that, I'm very sorry you're going through this Corbin. There's really nothing magical to say other than we're all here for you when you need us. And as I've said before, don't forgot, I'm only a phone call away and can jump in the car and be there in 4hrs if you ever need anything...
No matter what...

My pastor made my wife and I read that book too! It's a great book and I would suggest it to anybody. Many times people often love there spouse as they want to be treated, my big one was words of affirmation. I need to hear a simple thank you for your hard work or I'm proud of you. Well my wife's 2 big ones are quality time and acts of service. I would have never guessed and I was loving her all how I wanted and words mean practically nothing to her.

I don't know the whole story Corbin but there's a good group of guys here for ya. If In any way we can help feel free to shoot a pm or whatever!

So back to your regularly scheduled programming of corbin having a vehicle problem..

I sold that silver Lly and got this jeep for a deal.. My older sister put a hard 150k on it and sold it to my younger sister who I bought it from.. 05 grand cherokee v6 210k on er and running strong.. As we all know I can't leave anything alone.

Here's how I got it...

Well damn pics aren't working..


Anyway I put a 3" lift on the front, 2.5" rear, painted the wheels, cleaned up the underside with some shiney black, added 2" spacers and put some used 285/70/17s on it I picked up.

Kinda like this thing and Im going to try and keep it a while so I have something to drive.. Hauls the kids nice too..

Id like to get the windshield tinted and the back windows a little darker.. But that's about it..

Unless I find a wrecked 4.7 the same year and I steal the diffs from it as they are 3:73 and this one is 3:07

Corbin, you remind me so much of my brother. He has had his share of vehicles, tractors etc. which I have too don't get me wrong. He always says I'm gonna keep this, always wanted one. 2 months later it's gone, lol. Those Jeeps are starting to grow on me. Looks better after what you did to it.

Mind if I ask what wheels are on the truck on the first page? Also how did you prep your block and paint it?

The black truck? 22" bmf novakane death metals.

I just brake cleaned the block and scrubbed it with a brush, sprayed again and dried it with an air hose.
