    Yeah...moose are damn huge and would absolutely destroy my truck and possibly me. And I know the sway bar doesn't prevent it, but it sure as hell helps limit body roll lol.

    Again, I'll be leaving it off for the time being. When I'm loaded down with gear I know it'll be worse. And a RTT will ultimately lead me to putting it back on. I'm hoping a wider stance from wheels and tires will help but I doubt it.

    The body roll I had with out the sway bar is probably worse since my coils have 160k miles on them. I'm replacing them some time next year. Ill do more research and see if a stiffer coil will allow a more stable on road ride and more articulation off road with the away bar off.

    Same. My winch has never been used to pull me out. Only been used for pulling out my buddies' jeeps and tugging down trees at the deer lease! I'm just glad I know it's there in case I ever need it for myself

    Bought my truck a year or two ago and the woman who owned it worked for the fire department and she left the extinguisher in it :D Thought it was legit that the truck is red and she used it for the fire department

    I'm sure it will, this ones made to put out the types of fires vehicles have (gas,electrical) and leaves no residue at all so no clean up other than burnt bits.

    Like you said hopefully it's never used but it's good to always be prepared!

    Took out the rear seats and put in a platform for the trip coming up. The fridge is on an engel transit lock. I was able to secure the platform using some steel flat stock I cut and bent to fit all the stock points for the seats.
