    Hey Sean! Your truck keeps getting better! It's looking good and I'm digging the new suspension. Have you had a chance to tune the valving on the coilovers/bypasses and dial it all in? Besides the added bypasses, any feedback between this LT vs your old setup? Feeling, response, noise? Thanks, and keep up the good work.

    I've noticed a shift from Rigid to Baja Designs a lot recently too.

    My guess for the switch to Baja Designs is the fact that they now have amber daytime running lights built in, are also 5000k light for much less fatigue on the driver with 4000 lumens of light per 10 inches of lightbar, and they also now offer a much greater spread/distance due to the reflectivity of their interior housing.
    In other words, they beat all the competitors, so anyone looking for light bars, get Baja Designs S8 Series, I wish I had a set myself!!

    I think Sean will let us know the reason for the switch in the coming weeks :p but that's my guess!

    Out of curiosity, what did you use for the non-skid on the tops of your sliders? How well is it holding up?

    I tried some non-skid tape that didn't stick at all. I'm wondering if I just got an old roll with bad adhesive...

    Thanks in advance!

    I prefer just beer when off-roading. Margarita's are too much logistics...:D Blenders need not apply...:p Great for a Cinco de Mayo though!...

    I've heard the craziest stories from it's Ponzi scheme to outright fraud from Kickstarters 2nd largest project at over $13 million. For as much money as been raised it's amazing that they aren't shipping any of the original backers coolers.
