    Yes. The difference isn’t the shocks, they are exactly the same. It’s the spacer that comes with the LH side for the brake line bracket. Just order the 2” extended rear lines $60 and you don’t have to wait months on end.

    I had the same issue. Got a bit excessive with the lighting in the box but am satisfied with the results. Lighting can be turned on with a switch on the side panel, from interior soft touch panel or with a remote control.

    I installed some MattGecko LEDs after getting my Diamondback. I use them way more than I'd imagined I would.

    Finally got new shoes! Went with the Falken Wildpeak ATw3 265/70 r17 on my bone stock suspension. Looks much better than those Toyo stocks.

    I didn’t realize how shitty the mid flaps look now, definitely talking those off along with the front plastic bumper deflector. Let the mods continue!!

    Pricing out suspension systems, looking to a 2-2 1/2” kit for my mall crawling activities.

    Have a good weekend!

    Looks great. I'm looking into some AT tires right now but think I'll have to wait as I want to put a pair of winter ones on in the coming months. I don't think I'll end up doing any suspension mods, maybe ever, but at least not for a couple of years so finding a good tire without altering suspension is going to be huge for me. Love the look though!

    I dunno how it is where you are in MA, but I'd just be careful about going flap-less.. they're kinda anal here. Unfortunately, if your tires poke out past the fenders, they're required. I suppose they might be more lenient where you are, but I know they can be pretty ridiculous about that crap.

    "Every motor vehicle or trailer, excepting passenger motor vehicles, operated in or upon any way shall be equipped with suitable guards which will effectively reduce the spray or splash to the rear of mud, water or slush caused by the rear wheels thereof. Every passenger motor vehicle which is equipped with tires which extend beyond the fenders or body of such vehicle and which is operated in or upon any way shall be equipped with flaps or suitable guards to reduce such spray or splash to the rear and sides."

    Doing a little more poking around the iPhone Settings, I found under "Do Not Disturb" almost at the bottom, a setting for "Do Not Disturb While Driving" that you can change from the default of "Automatically" to "Manual". I haven't had a chance to fire up Waze while driving to see if this setting keeps you from having to do the swipe and "I'm not driving" kill. I'll update this when I do.

    That's a chunk? Looks more like a minor whoops to me. One man's chunk is a another man's work wear but I digress. Show me a machine tool that looks pristine and it'll be one that doesn't see much use. Stuff happens even when you're careful.
