    So after wheeling last week I noticed I was hitting bump stops in rear. Going to be adding the HD leaf to my Dakar pack and wanting to get new bump stops. I am looking for suggestions on what to get. I don't need any fancy hydraulic ones but thinking about Either energy suspension or Timbren with the ubolt flip kit. Less money is always good seeing how I just spent almost 700 on rebuilding my front end. Any input will be appreciated, Are the timbren that much better then stock or the ES 2.5"? Timbren is over $300 where ES is under $70.

    Installed a "used" GNTX-455 from Bob! Looks brand new! Finally have a compass and temp in my '15! Calibration and install was very simple. Thanks @RJP869 !!

    Where did you mount them up? Your light output looks good and coverage on the ground is perfect.

    After finally getting my truck back from the shop for some work and installs, I finally got around to putting on some new tires to fit the new lift.

    Heat. My last time changing both plugs were so on there even me standing on a breaker bar wasn’t doing anything. About a solid minute with a blue bottle torch spin right out effortlessly.

    Got back on Sunday from almost a 2 week trip threw the black hills and into the Bighorn Mountains with the girlfriend and pooch. Amazing views, beautiful hikes, tough tracks and free camping in the most epic spots! A little to share with you all
