    I broke my arm last July and it's required two surgeries and a lot of rehab. Suffice to say my parts shelf was overfloweth. Until I picked her up from the best in the business, Stellar Built.

    14" Bilstein 7100's
    Wifey air line kit with air chuck in each wheel well

    She handles soooo well. Big ups to all the fab design shops named above for all their great products

    Can't wait to get it dirty!

    I’m not sure but it does come with a magnetic ring with double sided tape to attach to your case. I didn’t have to use it since it worked well with my case.

    Installed a rear seat delete yesterday. Looked at goose gear and didn't like that it used plywood. Went with campcargokits instead as its made out of HDPE and extruded aluminum. Planning on building a battery box out of HDPE and extruded aluminum in the space thats not covered by the platform.

    It did. The front went from almost 3 1/2 inches to a little over 2inches of lift. Rear went from 4 inches to 3 1/2.

    The ride is really nice. Haven't gotten to test them off road yet but hopefully soon. I put the adjusters to the recommended settings and the rebound is a bit harsh so I turned the low speed back 2 clicks so we will see how that goes.

    It runs under the black fender plastic and into the hood at back where the hood hinge is. Under hood light has been mounted for 2 years now with no problems, just updating switch location

    Thanks for the feedback. I've got the same shocks ready to install and some of the reviews about ride quality are concerning. I was thinking about getting them re-valved first, but I'm just going to install them and run them as is.

    Had an oil leak that I just noticed last week. Luckily it was the oil filter and nothing major. I probably just didn't use enough oil on the o-ring and it got bunched up.

    Either way, today I used it as an excuse to get an upgraded filter wrench and replace the plastic filter housing with a metal one. Interesting enough I found that I can now hand tighten the filter housing all the way down and couldn't with the plastic one. Anyone else notice this?
