Basically finished my long arm install. RK offroad pro - joints on both ends, 7075 aluminum arms. Ran into some tuning issues - all but one resolved. (front axle is pushed too far forward and pushing out the grill at full compression and lock - going to cut down arms). Skid has to be modified as interferes with relocated passenger converter. Some highlight pics.
Used a Currie bridge and cut down Artec 3 link rear mount
Front 3 link mount
Not fully flexed, but no more joint/mount binding again.

Lookin' good. That last pic has me convinced to strip/blast all of the black paint off my set of TRB's and slap at least some 37s on instead lol

Anybody take advantage of these crazy sales going on? I haven't splurged on mods since last Christmas so did a little shopping this week....
1. VKS Prerunner sliders - thought I'd help out the local boys out in Fresno. I will never go with a body mount slider ever again. Was originally going to get the Nemesis boatslides but decided to go the EVO route instead then remembered last minute about the VKS version of the EVO's. VKS was having some killer deals ($80-$100 bucks off sliders). Saw these and picked these up instead. Glad I held off on the boatslides...
2. JWL Speaker 8700 J series -- J series not on sale but Northridge has/had an awesome deal on the 8700 Gen2 versions if you're in the market.....I think they were $400 without the anti-flicker harness
3. Trek Armor Seat covers black/black -- Got from Northridge also
4. EVO Rockskins in Aluminum -- Got from Northridge
4. Debating if I'm going to drop some coin today on the PSC steering pump kit...

Vick runs a great shop. He built me .25 wall sliders and kept the frame mounts off so as I could fit around my cage attachments. It's great seeing a shop willing to modify their products to fit your needs. I suspect very few of the big shops out there would likely do so... Thinking about switch my front bumper up for one of his while the sale is still around.

Hell I would if you guys did weekday runs lol I'm booked solid every weekend. I guess that's the tradeoff I get for being pretty damn good at what I do lol.
Plus I've been in Asia that last month tending to the family farm. Dealing with some b.s. squatters on our land and corrupt officials trying to move in on it. Planning another trip out there for February but we'll see...
At least my rig will look good here in the driveway LOL. I'd like to ship it out there though. I'd be off-roading everyday.....
