I just looked that up on urban Dictionary and broke out in laughter, all alone, its kinda weird. the best part is them using it in a conversation:

Andy: "Hey Brian, wanna come give me an alaskan pipeline?"

Brian: "You know I can't do that again. Dad will spank us!"

Andy: "Aww shucks Brian, you know how much I love those."

Brian: "I know Andy dear, I know."

Granted Im about 12 drinks in for the night, but I just did the same thing.

On another note though, every man should have a blumpkin at least once, what could be so refreshing!

that is just angle steel welded to the stock tierod.the factory tierod is complete and in intact. yea it is a talking diff cover lol
 
Yeah I just welded on the angle Iron to the Tie Rod, some guys up here do it and claim it adds some strength to the Tie Rod for hitting rocks or whatever. Anyway I wanted a little bigger tires so I traded the 38's and some cash for this set up/ They are 39.5x13.50 Iroks on DC-2 rims. I didnt want or need rims, but it was a package deal so I popped on it. I like the stance now alot better, the 38x12.50 were on a skinny steel rim with not real good off-set. I didnt want to go to big and wide so the 39.5x13.50 I thought was a good compromise. These rims and tires are probally HALF the weight as the old SX's and black steelies.

they look good on there. but your right the rims dont match very well with the truck.
you should paint the black sections orange to match the rest of the truck.
 
Man, I dont know about painting on them purdy aluminum rims, I'm afraid I'd jack it all up:D. I'm thinking about finding some all black wide rims and putting these pretty ones on my Dodge mike.
 
Also the black trim on the bottom of the truck helps a little with matching the rims to the truck. If the truck was all solid Orange I would think it would look really weird.
 
BTW Mike, I'm still pretty sketched out about what happened yesterday. Do you think the whole set up was a bad idea with the XJ being so far back on the end of the trailer? Did that have anything to do with the excessive sway you guys experienced?. Was the Excursion overloaded or was this just simply Hitch component failure?. Either way it fffffffffin sucks balls man, I still cant believe it:eek1:.
