    hahaha I've been pushing that back so much. I may hold off until after the Baja trip in Jan since I know it'll get beat up lol.

    Quick runs over the weekend from Sand Lake. Terrain was super choppy from everyone there but still a good time. Mid field area had some decent rollers 2' or so but of course the camera doesn't do it justice. Had no problem cruising at 65mph through this.

    I have no frame of reference for that kind of thing but it looks like you gliding over the sand. Pretty amazing. And looks like a huge party scene too!

    Yea it was packed for sure! Felt like a big caddy first time the rig build has really felt like it’s getting dialed. Super happy with how it’s coming along.

    I think if you're not doing full LT doing glass isn't worth it. The install is a pain then paint/wrap costs etc. Also, for now there's no fender liner (working on a fix for this). Fit and finish with glass is never as good as oem. Does it look baddass with LT 100% lol

    It looks super cool, I just can't have it any taller since the garage I regular visit won't fit any taller, right now I have about 1" left, and I have no need for LT (no desert here), BUT it may make it go faster since its lighter!

    what’s funny is I think it actually sits lower than it did when I had my mid travel kit on. Parked next to an icon tundra today and hood lines were the same height lol now width wise is different lol

    also, those 37s look fantastic.

    the 3rd gens look SOOO much better/more right with a lift and tires - the OE setup just looks....wrong. never thought that way about the OE 2/2.5s

    I totally agree! I’ve not been sold on the new look until seeing them getting done up. Can’t wait to see one long travel on 37s hmm

    Both of those scare me:eek: Your video driving through I was just waiting for someone in a RZR not looking to pop out into the middle. And Cruz’s little sluice video I watched the other night had me puckered and saying “oh sh*t, what’s he scraping up down there” just before the winch came out.

    Yes sir! I actually tried last time but didn’t have enough torque to go up the face of a 2’ tall boulder. Next year I’ll have plenty of torque after I install an Atlas TC.

    Build Update 9/26/22

    I'm starting to compile some of the final items for the trip In Jan. Ordered the Evil MFG 3rd brake light. Next to order are the baja s2's, antenna, and switch pros. I was able to get out for a bit over the weekend. Suspension was working really well. Played with the tubes and tire pressures. Hoping to get out a few more times before the PNW weather comes in. Also, sent off some measurements for the custom liners. We'll see how those work out once they arrive.

    have you thought about getting the coach built steering kit? One thing they talk about is allowing for full and better articulation of the suspension travel.

    I seriously could put that suspension in action on loop and watch it all day :popcorn:
