    Open to discussion. My friend wants to be there during the day light so he can comfortably ride his dirt bike, other than that my friends going pretty much fall in line with whatever i choose :rofl:. So what works for you :confused:
    Wait what :spy::tinfoilhat:
    This is an exit off the 15 maybe halfway through the Cajon Pass.
    https://www.google.com/maps/place/3...5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d34.298865!4d-117.456294
    Going to meet up in that little dirt area off to the side you can see. Basically get off the exit & pull a right, there's a sign clearly labeling it before it comes up, go onto the dirt & pull another right down the little hill and you should be able to immediately see the area.
    Cleghorn is a great place to off road for people with a variety of skills and abilities. The main fire road is easily passable and has many split offs that reconnect with the main road at some point, each vary with difficulty.

    I'll take my chances with the compressor. The ARB's comp's are stout, and the most likely issues that arise from it will most likely revolve around teflon tape. That's a much cheaper fix than sensors and whatever else.

    I agree 100%. Its one thing if your rig comes with an e Locker installed. Another if you're going aftermarket. Another issue I hear of the e locker is getting to engage and disengage.

    My vote is buy all of it.

    It's craigslist, low ball, offer 1200 cash for all of it.

    Right?!

    You can flip all of those suspension components when you're finally ready to order the suspension you really want. If you get it for the right deal you won't cry.

    Aww no worries randy, always Respect for Grand Daddy Randy :thumbsup::cool:
    :bananadead: shoot. Would've been nice to have a 4x4 there apart from the iffy jeep. If anyone needs rescue realistically I'm going to have to hop in the drivers seat and do it for him :rofl:

    There's only one way he can learn.

    The lesson of the week so far has been that you need hands on experience.

    Doesn't hurt to give him a price for all of it and see what he says. It's a good set up. Unless you're waiting to drop 2k on kings or something, then you might still need leaf springs too.....

    Appreciate it. Realistically if anyone's going to need a big rescue it's going to be him. He'll either roll it or break something if he decides to do some wheeling in the jeep :homer:. He got a bit sketchy on the beginning of jeep hill at holy jim when he first got the jeep & was on street tires.

    He's got one thing working for him, decided to leave the flat tow bar on the front of his jeep incase I have to drag his ass to the road :laugh:
    Ain't that the truth

    Hmm. Maybe, if there's profit to be made :D:rofl:. Nah I'm not planning on dropping that much on Kings like a good chunk of people on here lately, aiming for fox shocks :rolleyes:. Frankly I'm already used to a rough ride & don't mind it at all so I'm aiming for ability over comfortability. My truck needs to keep up with my crazyness :bananadance::dancingbacon:
    Shouldn't go saying that, now I'm going to be knocking on your door when finals are over :rofl:. Oh speaking of which if/when I do come up to bug you, remind me we can load up both our trucks and swing by your storage unit. Mine as well save you a trip :fistbump:

    Definately will have to look into that as well. Granted I'm not planning on running giant tires, although I aim considering going bigger on the next set :rofl:
