    Got this rifle as I'm most familiar with this type and wanted one of my own. Plenty of research and my budget got me set on this one. Probably looking at a bolt action .308 in the future.

    The front of the truck is still being fabricated and even when that's done it's going to take a while to dial it in and revalve accordingly. I'll get some footage soon.

    Haha my front hasn't been touched yet. The kit is being made right now should be done in the next few weeks.

    Even the rear isn't all the way done. The shock tabs are going to be raised higher on the axle as the springs can accommodate more droop. Definitely some changes to come in valving like I said.

    As for pismo, probably not this year I may be gone.

    Front kit is pending completion, shock tabs in the rear will be moving up, getting a longer set of shackles, backup camera remounted, maintenance lights cleared. I think that's it.

    I really want to get this TC kit off and into Roderick's hands, he's all :drool: waiting for it
