    Truck looks really good Sam! I really like the tucked-up look of the SDHQ sliders over mine, however I do like being able to use mine as a step.

    Thanks man! Yours look awesome with the paint matched mirrors. Sliders are totally personal preference. I can still use them as a step but I'm a female and wear a size 7 men's shoe so my little foot fits just fine. I don't think my husband has tried yet. But I do like the low pro look

    Finally took it on a somewhat technical trail today. But we didn't use sliders so apparently it wasn't hard enough haha

    This is Box Canyon Florence, AZ. The last picture of me spotting is the waterfall obstacle. It was fun, but too easy. Next trail is Elvis haha

    Thanks!

    We sold the brute force today. I wasn't in love with it but a local friend was. So I got his blue steel factory bumper for the time being. We'll either do a Demello look alike or Coastal Offroad. We haven't decided yet

    Eh it was a nice bumper but not my style. It was too bulky. Demello isn't making us anything so we have to make something similar ourselves. So we'll see!

    I always feel bad when people get excited about stuff we do because it takes us so damn long :rofl: rear bumper might come first, I haven't decided. But my husband, Aaron, keeps saying we need mid skids. That sounds lame haha

    Got some sweet drone footage of the waterfall climb at Box Canyon. Here's the full video if anyone is interested.

    And posted up at the SDHQ grand opening. I kinda miss the Brute Force bumper, but I'm excited for the future bumper build.

    I think a smaller bumper would look great. The truck looks meaner with the stock bumper. Just my opinion.

    That's a cool clip by the way.

    I agree! My husband is still getting used to the stock look. I like it and it'll look better with some retro headlights.

    It was the stupidest rock stopping him. So I told him to back up and I'll move it. Eff that shit :rofl:

    I dunno, that bumper was awesome. I'll get one eventually. But I'm sure whatever you buy next will be great.

    I didn't realize your truck has a sunroof. I like it even more now!

    I prefer no hoops, so the 3 hoop was too much for me. And I can't drive a vehicle without a sunroof. I have to have it haha

    Exactly!!

    It's been a minute. Not much has changed on the truck but we did get a new toy that's been taking our time and money. :bananadead:

    Tried to find some snow but the mountain was busy with idiots getting stuck. So this is all we got. These RTs are amazing in snow.

    I think your truck actually looks sharper with the factory bumper back on. It really cleans up the lines. :)

    Thanks! I agree. It took my husband a little bit to get used to it. He says he's going to start scanning the front end soon for a bumper though haha

    What does he use for scanning it? I'm really interested in the process. Being a welder, I've kicked around the idea of building a bumper but I'm not very good with the design end of things.

    I think a hidden winch mount and subdued bumper like Victory 4x4's Blitz bumper looks the best but doesn't provide the protection of a full bumper. Since you do more technical wheeling, you'll definitely need a full replacement bumper though. Wouldn't want to bust up a factory bumper. Looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with!
