    I reckon I've got enough going to start up a build thread - will update this post as things develop. Want to make this as helpful as possible so feel free to ask questions.

    *I do want to disclose that I am an ambassador for TruckVault and CBI/Prinsu.*

    Started here: stock 1794 I grabbed off Carvana. I've bought and sold on Carvana. I'm glad I'm not in the dealership biz. Great service.

    I blacked everything out with parts from Sparks. I didn't get photos of that process but you guys have seen that plenty. Swapped grill as well.

    Added the Halo 9 HU. Big fan of it. Also did most of the AFT Designs blackout. AJT billet shifter.

    When planning for the suspension my main uses are mobile basecamp for western hunting. So I wanted to be able to handle rough BLM roads, carry all my gear and YETIs, and (eventually) run a RTT. After discussing with my homie who builds baja trucks, I landed on the full ADS system from MCM.

    3.0s up front with MCM UCA, gusseted the spindles and cam tabs too:

    ADS triple bypasses and custom Deavers in the rear:

    Wheels and tires are SCS 8s, 18x9 and a 285x75 Toyo AT3. (35x11.50)

    IMG_0797.jpg


    Armor, racks, and skids are all CBI/Prinsu. Baja front bumper, Overland sliders, full underbody skids, Prinsu roof rack and top rack for the CBI bed rack.

    I have a custom TruckVault drawer system in the bed, the weather sealed version. Need some more images of them.

    I also have the Morimoto XB headlights and Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro yellow fogs in the bumper.

    Still to come: RTT, likely the GFC v2, more lights, maybe a regear and whatever else you guys talk me into.

    Fire at will with questions.

    Cheers!

    Nice rig.
    I do have same kind of build too(hunting, off-roading)and we need More lights for sure.
    Once you out there it’s getting very dark.
    So I got 2 lights bars, ditch lights, rear bumper lights and side lights on the bed rack.

    Oh yeah I've got to get MORE LIGHTS. I swapped my reverse lights to the high output LEDs which I forgot to mention but I definitely need more. What do you have on the bed rack?

    I do have Baja S1 working lights.
    Very useful when you doing something behind the truck.
