    Any reason to think this wouldn't work for a 4th gen? I'll have to measure, but I would guess our frames are a bit wider, so should fit, more wondering about the computer hookups, evap etc.

    What’s next?
    Sale link?

    Buddy landed a medical sales job and has to work there for 6 months. Was supposed to visit last week just cause but snow kind of ruined that. Saw they were in the national championships so figured this weekend would’ve been a good weekend. Bonus that they won. Should make for a good time

    I've never been to Wilmington. I remember reading about Portsmouth island. Seems like a cool place. Camping on the beach is fun.

    I’ve seen snapchats of what’s been going on down there since and it looks like a real crazy time. Have Monday off from school so plenty of recovery time

    That’s a little closer to you and it’s beautiful. Never camped but I know there’s some local campgrounds.

    There’s Masonboro right there too, which can be a little hard to get to if you don’t know anyone with a boat down there but it’s awesome and super remote. Nowhere where you can drive on the beach but still absolutely beautiful.

    Da fuq? Your balls, your choice, but there's these things called condoms and spermicide. My grandpa told me long ago there's three things you need to avoid in your life - doctors, priests, and lawyers. You're breaking Rule One.

    Nice, thanks for the tips. Not on my short list of shit to do, but 4 link is the plan eventually, may just do it like you have even before 4 link so I can stop scrubbing the shit out of the tank on everything LOL.

    Mine were totally destroyed so they got replaced with 1/4” mounts and slightly longer links. Now they are stronger than the frame

    having to rewire the 7 way is so annoying. Damn you toyota for this weird proprietary wiring and mount on my 7 way.

    Also bought all the shit for my drawer project. Going to start that soon.

    very nice, i like what he did and overall mine will be the same. I just dont like little things that he did and some of the hardware like the drawer pulls and whatnot. Minor but essentially the same.

    Should really help out with my cargo area and how i haul things. Definitely will help for camping, but i suspect i will need to upgrade to the 3" MTLT springs.
