    Originally not Expo AF! Kinda Expo AF now...lame.
    Thanks guys. I've been doing photography for over a decade, I rarely take on professional work anymore because I don't want to make a hobby a job, it detracts from the fun. But rest assured, I'll have my equipment with me on every trip since it's one of the reasons I got into wheelin'. I plan to make it out west some and take some awesome Utah and Colorado Pics when I can. Sadly, I probably have as much in my camera's as some of you guys have in your builds.

    Nothing to be sad about if its what you love! I'd hate to see the cost in all my tools and metal working stuff; and i'm just at the beginning of that hobby.

    The trailer is an incredible tool because it's like having an extra truck bed of space back there. I love ours and plan to mod it more in the future.

    Speaking of, we need to talk about skid plates eventually :) I've got a good bit of metalworking equipment (MIG, grinders, bandsaws, benders), but no press or break, so if you do end up making some skids I'd be happy to help fund you some new tools.

    Just get the 4.88s. He has a drop bracket, add some coil overs (if he hasn't already) and he can clear 37s without much work

    Definitely agree on the 4.88's, especially if the plan is to have a trailer behind him for camping. Always nice to have some numbers to make you feel better though sometimes.

    Looks like it will be 4.88's but I'm still up in the air. I got a couple of quotes and one of them was about $600 cheaper than ECGS and that didn't include shipping.

    So I have an thread running to see what the TW world thinks. Link here.

    I'm ignorant when it comes to wiring these up so I'm turning to any CB radio master on here, because I try to work smarter not harder.
