    Yeah luckily this piece is only to help when you remove the cover which I don't plan on doing often.

    I just wanted to show you one more vid of "Pinyon Drop Off" (a.k.a. Heart Attack Hill). Yeah, pretty steep for sure and also shows how you don't want to hit your brakes too hard!!! Again, in my humble opinion, if someone is "new" to off-roading and/or doesn't have all that much experience, I would not recommend this hill, but, that's just me.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVqx5L9Lsh8

    Here is a video of "The Slot" (i.e. north of the 78fwy) and I apologize, it is still considered to be in Anza Borrego, apparently. Anyways this is my friend's truck going down it and the point is is that I just wanted to show that a 2wd can do it for sure. To get there, it helps to have lockers on the rear if only 2wd as my friend had to lock his rears and get a starting "run up" the hill in some areas before reaching the "drop-in point". I went down this section in my truck, but again, as you can see, you kind of "slide down", LOL!!! It really is hard to gauge when/how to brake when going down this hill? Well, for me it was?! :notsure::D:p Finally, don't let the video fool you as that sand is pretty damn SOFT... at least all the times I've ever been on that hill. Then after this section, there are some fairly technical sections, BUT, no sliders were ever required... I don't have sliders anyways. :D:p IF I remember correctly, the actual trail is called "Borrego Mountain Wash"??? I would have to do more research as I don't remember the actual trail name to get to "The Slot".

    Trying to sell my 5100s and 5125, stock spring set at 2.5 and a spacer to get full 3inches, sway bar relocates
    $320 sound good ?

    P.s. JaCado, I don't believe the 5125s are extended travel, they were as long as my icons
