    Yeah, but for what TC is asking for those stock length lowers you are more than half way to their +2 kit. Just a $1000 more and you get the +2 uppers and lowers with limit straps and a few other small parts.

    axles yes, C/O's eh, make yours work ;) Mine will work if I just fine:p although I am already pulling like 11" of wheel travel. TC lists their +2 kit at 11.5".

    Damn Bob! Great artistic take on all those :cool: Your white pocket 15 is pretty sick with the snow. They're coming across just a bit dark on my end. Maybe bring them up just a bit exposure wise next time unless you're going for the darker look. (but that's being really critical...)

    they come across how i planned on it..portrays the dark and gloomy feel that was present on the trip..

    zion was a sunny day, but the emerald pools hike is mainly all in the shade, so it was also dark so it fit right in actually haha..and the tree on the wall had a cool feel to it that i tried to reflect in the photo as well..

    so dark, yes. but it's intentional. some do have some darker areas than i wanted, but this is my first HDR project, so i have much to learn still :D
