    Brian, Colton, and myself took a quick little getaway out to sycamore creek this afternoon. Brian & Colton wanted to try the widow-maker and I had been out there many times so I figured I'd take my truck out and show them how to get there. It was also the first time I had even mildly off-roaded my truck since I put on my 32" Hankook Dynapro ATM tires. I'm happy to report their performance in the sand (without airing down) was leaps and bounds better over the stock BFGs (to be expected).

    I only took a couple pics with my phone, so here's what I got. Brian got some with his DSLR and we also got a video of Brian going up and down the hill. Video and more pics to come :)

    Could be wrong though.

    Pretty good! i did everything but the wheels, they came with the rugged trail edition.

    It's an 08 Rugged Trail Edition (came with black baja wheels and fender flairs). It's lifted with Old Man Emu shocks. 3" in the front (885 coils), 1.5" in the rear with deaver add a leafs. one size taller tires, 265-75-16s. Plus the visual things mentioned above, and I've got a few other little things like HIDs, dvd touch screen, shorty antenna... I really need to get upper control arms to help the camber in the front.
