    Makes sense. I might put some anti seize on the bolts.

    Any suggestions for new splash guards? These ones were ready for retirement after 4 years.

    We saw them in 2019 for Legacy of the Beast Tour. They've already announced their next global tour for 2025/26 that will pretty much only cover songs from their first 9 albums.

    I'm just impressed that Bruce can hit those high notes song after song at his age. Rob Halford can't. It was well mixed, and I thought all the lyrics were easy to distinguish from the music. It was enjoyable.

    I've only seen 3 bands more than once: TOOL (2), Iron Maiden (2), and Trans-Siberian Orchestra (3). All 3 I'm likely to go see again.

    I stopped by his shop on the way out of town - picked up some stickers and a shirt. Didn’t talk to Rory but Mike and Shawn were cool and let me wander around and take some pics.

    I hear that. That was my first trip, back in 2021. I used my Tundra to haul my T100 out, as a just in case. It worked out great because we hit Fins & Things and the very first decent obstacle, I bent the hell out of my steering on the T100. I was able to semi straighten it out, but not enough for it to be drivable on the highway. That's what started my SAS build on that truck.

    My second trip was this year, we were in the Tundra only this time. I didn't hit Hells in the Tundra, we just did a lighter trail, Chicken Corners.

    He joked around with my buddy, gave him a "frequent flyer" discount for the recovery as this was his 3rd pull lol

    Chicken Corners was on my short list of trails to get on but we ran out of time. We did Schafer, Long Canyon, the dirt road into Arches, and Hells Revenge. Need to go back for Fins and Top of the World.

    We went in July this year as we were on our way to Colorado - what time of year have you been? Seems like August / Sept would be a nice time of year when it’s a little cooler but not flooding from runoff.

    The mistake I've made both times is going in June. First trip was fathers day weekend, second was middle of June. Hotter than hell both times. Once I get the SAS done on my T100 I need to get back and get revenge on Fins. It was embarrassing...

    Who's resurfacing your rotors? I'm having a hard time finding anyone down in SW CT who does this anymore. I'm about to toss a set of rotors for the daily driver. Thanks in advance.

    Just a heads up... ICS plate and Rago dash mount combo (at least for me) have been rock solid. When I see any vibration it's not in the dash mount itself but in the pieces holding the phone or whatever. So, I'm currently using RAM mounts and will see vibration in my phone or other devices when I"m off road and the source of that appears to be at the 'ball' of the RAM mount where the mount holding the device connects to the arm.

    Also you have to swap out the taller tower from your Tundra filter housing.

    I'm not sure now, but I think he charged somewhere between $150-250 for that short pull. We were within a mile of the parking lot, so it wasn't terribly far.

    Definitely noticed the difference with the ICS plate. That plus readjusting the RAM mount back a bit helped. My Tundra won't see much off-roading so I went from minimal shaking to nearly none at all :thumbsup:

    I’m wondering what the variance of accuracy is from the OBD ports.

    lol definitely calculated. You’re also showing boost but have no boost. Not sure on the varying port accuracy.

    I'll have to go out and measure hub-to-fender. But my estimate is 3" of lift. No settling as far as I can tell. And it hauls well too. This is with 1200 lbs of gravel in the bed:

    Are they actually ripped? And did they fade like that or are they just that dirty? I’ve wanted to get some Arks to replace the shitty OEM ones, and they’re local. But they’re expensive if they only last 4 years.

    Yes, they ripped from the mounting holes in a few spots. They could probably be pressure washed back to black but the ripped holes make them flop around more than I care for and with the 35s they rub on one side where they flop.

    Not opposed to getting another set - but also open to better options. I got these ones on a group buy if we need to put on another… they offer custom logos.
