    I'm not justifying anything. Giving my opinion about them. I bought them and I like them, if I didn't like them I would let you know. I'm pretty open if I don't like something I buy.

    Mine rig is mine. If you don't like it, that's cool. At least it is mine and I did what I wanted to it. I do use the form as a guide, like using you to research the Relentless Fab DIY kit.

    One thing driving me to relentless is I haven't seen a 3rd gen with one. It will be nice to have something different

    Toyo MTs are awesome tires. How much PSI you running in them? If they're under filled or wearing down they howl a little more.

    That will be cool. I love being a bit different. I always try to add small customizations to things. Even a lightbar cutout or something.

    Relentless won my permanent business due to the sliders I got. I've gotten parts from almost all the fabricators on here and the quality of welds on those sliders takes the cake. The rest are good, but holy crap those welds from relentless are gorgeous. Plus I really think their rear bumper is the nicest looking, I wanted a dual swing out and theirs is available!

    Doesn't hurt they got back to me really fast when I messaged them on TW about lead times. As soon as get my replacement card I am 99% sure I'm going to order the DIY kit from them. I do need to see if their signals are LED or not

    I run 40 on the street. Generally bring it to at least 30 if I hit dirt just for comfort. If I'm in sand or actually need traction I go to 20.
    I love mud until about 5 minutes after.

    I've talked to Brittony, Eric's wife, a lot they are really nice and just a way smaller shop than some of the others. Makes sense why their lead times for non DIY kits are so long. They said they are working on bringing them down. I honestly think they would blow a lot of other companies out of the water once they do that.

    I actually like the long lead times. When I order a bumper and it's 6 months out, I can pay monthly and it doesn't feel like I dropped 1500 bucks...

    Usually with most shops don't you have to pay all up front and still wait? That's why a lot of people were pissed at Addicted because he forthcoming about his lead time and people were waiting forever and dropped over $1k on his bumpers
