    Tav does awesome work from my personal experience. Can't wait to see this build when completed! Hopefully in person. I'll be doing my stage 1 plus there. (Kings, rear relocate, regear/ rear locker and a few other goodies) already have Alcans in the rear. Tell walt I said hello

    Wow! Didn't you know that you could've bought all those exact parts and installed it yourself for like $2000. With some help from TW, it could've been done in 10 hours or less too!

    That's the vibe I'm getting from a lot of these replies. It's not like it's a simple 5100 install it something easy. Also, if you have the money, spend it. That's how I see it at least.

    Front locker, there is quite a bit of cutting, welding and fabing involved to make sure the rear geometry is correct

    Crazy build. Can't wait to see it done.
    Sorry you've been without the truck so long, that's the only downside I see here.

    Is that gonna tuck nicely into the bedsides or will it require cutting the bed?

    I’m really disappointed that there is nothing tactical here. What a waste of a name. They could at least extend the rear shock hoops up for a pintle mount or something.

    I kinda got that vibe from the name too. Feel like there should be molle panels everywhere and bulletproof tires.

    Probably lots of bro beards in the shop to make up for the lack of tactical builds. Though it does look like they do a pretty good job if you have both money and time to spare.

    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::fistbump:

    My thoughts exactly. The parts alone are probably close to $10k. Someone will do the footwork for me and research prices to prove me wrong though...:crapstorm:

    enough to have fun
    there's no right or wrong way to "build" a truck, but I really like the idea of a shop doing everything at once.

    I've seen the evolution of builds and revised suspensions and bumpers and setups over and over again to end at LT. That all adds up lol

    If you don't have the ability, desire, or tools to build a truck like this, taking it to a shop that can is awesome.

    I can't even think of any shops out here that i'd trust with my truck besides @Mobtown Offroad .

    Stoked to see the finished product!
