    I haven't ordered the boxes yet.. Combination of lazy/busy. But I will order them tomorrow and get them on before this weekend. Going to take some wheel pics for Total Chaos and try to get in their catalog!

    I thought about it but since all UTV's here have to be street legal to go on the forest service roads (primarily where ill use the lights) I figured they would count it as illegal to use those then, and any ranger that sees me i'd probably get pulled over. Don't want to chance it

    Exactly. Not sure how to run the wires for the controller. Could leave it in one of the plano boxes and just turn it on when im airing down

    Ordered 2 plano boxes, same ones @XPOTRPR has. Those were Amazon prime and the others weren't.
    Got my core refund from Cali fab for my spindles and spending that on the dust strobe bar. Going to call them tomorrow to find out how tall the mounting feet are, should be enough to see over my tent if I mount it on the Prinsu.

    Highly Illegal is all that I can communicate:

    When I was into the Super Sedans with AWD V8 TT, there was some cat that had an Audi S4 with red/blue flashers in his grill.
    Got pulled over by the real CHP; big fat ticket and nearly confiscate the vehicle for "Impersonating a police officer".

    No sense in giving another reason for the "heat" to investigate/ransack/search your vehicle or take it away.

    So let me get this straight...... You are running TC +2 kit and 4.5" BS wheels with no fiberglass? Damn

    Also... do you miss your sell yet?

    Yup! 4.5" bs and 0 offset. You don't need fiberglass at all even with a 3.5" kit if you are okay with cutting the fender more. But some tire coverage would be nice. I'll get SCS SR8's in 16" when I put 35's on. I have a 1/4" clearance between my tire and spindle gusset right now.

    Do I miss my shell? In the winter yes. In the summer no

    Not much, just the normal 285 cutting. I have 4 degrees of caster now and clear completely. Goodyear tires actually run true to size unlike Bfg's
