    Installed my new Kings and Total Chaos upper control arms.

    Really happy with the service from Down South Motorsports. Both in getting the shocks setup and shipped out. Had a quick question this morning. Email and a call got everything sorted in 20 minutes. It was awesome!

    I'm not going to fame because - I just replaced my rotors. The OEM rotors would not come off with a hammer - I had to use 2 8mm bolts in the bolt holes provided - backed off no problem. The new rotors do not have the threaded bolt holes. I'm wondering how I will get them off when the time comes. I put marine never-seize where the rotors contact the wheel bearing - hope it works. I put it on the studs to remount the tires too.

    Any reason you went above the bars instead of on the bumper itself?

    Probably so he didn't have to drill? :notsure: Looks like he preferred to use clamps on the hoop.

    Installed my new Extang Trifecta tonight. It was a horrible chore. Took a whole 25 sweaty minutes (hot and muggy out), mostly because I couldn't find the right size allen wrench.
