    [QUOTE I’m definitely down for exploring Bear more though. I dig that area and haven’t done too many trails yet.[/QUOTE]

    Big Bear definitely has more potential then we explored, although some of those mud ruts were pretty damned vicsious!!!

    Looked like it had run its course pretty quickly, both sides got their story out and the peanut gallery can make their own decisions.... I suppose

    Those bolted metal racks look like shit from all companies that make them. Weird anybody would be surprised about it failing.especially the light duty.

    Yeah the prinsu is built very well structurally. But the slotted mounting holes should be the other way or holes slighty oversized. That shit did not line up on my truck. I was fucking pissed cause it was starting to rain and I was expecting to just drop the rack on for an easy install as i read from others. Nope.... I had to fight almost every bolt in. Cant imagine I am the only one that happened too.

    Yeah I had that issue too. I thought it may have been due to manufacturing tolerances on the bolt holes between the toyota/prinsu. In any case it's still some of the best mod money I've spent on my truck.

    true that. It looks great and is super easy to add bolts and attach things. But man that install sucked. Oh and mine leaked too. So i got to do the install twice.:frusty::frusty:

    I'm swapping on my Icons and TC arms unless my work will pay for some nice new shiny Fox or King suspension. They want to shoot a suspension installation video and lucky for me they don't want to use used parts or parts we don't sell. Just have to keep pushing for the good stuff!

    I have a garage full of tools to do that safely. :D

    If I lose 2 tires out on the trail I'll just go ahead and load up my backpack and start hoofing it.:D
