    Yeah right. BAMF shock relocation with fox resis getting installed this weekend. Fridge sitting on my doorstep ready for install as we speak. New ARB awning mounted. Relentless High Clearance dual swingout on the way. Relentless Dom Two piece kickout sliders on the way. New Relentless 1/4 ifs. Putting some money aside to regear, add Long travel Fox front resis, and 35 inch tires. Im stepping it up this year. Just wish I had your photography skills.

    At camp with the lights dimmed to 50% .... YES! The new sPOD touchscreen can dim, strobe, flash and momentary your Rigid lights without hurting them or shortening the life in any way :D

    The New Side profile. So much cleaner!

    [​IMG]

    I will be putting on Bushwacker flares next and trimming them a little less than what I currently have done. When at full flex/tuck I have some extra space that I wanted to fill in — so I had Pelfreybilt build my rear hi-clearance bumper to my new trim lines (about 1" less will be trimmed off the rear). If you haven't worked with them yet, they are pretty amazing to deal with with. I placed my order a little over 8 weeks ago and they verified my new trim lines with me probably 3 times before making the cuts to make sure it was going to be exactly what I needed.

    I also added one of these sweet RoadShowers this past weekend. When I first ran across it I figured it would be a great way to have water since I haven't added the tanks to my trailer yet and for only $299 I figured it was worth a shot. Well the verdict is in and I freaking love it! Pressurized with a small bike pump and holds 4.5 gallons. Heats up to about 115 degrees also.

    Another side profile up close of the Pelfreybilt Front Aluminum Bumper with no hoops.
    Seriously in love! I was starting to consider selling my truck... but those feeling have now changed :D

    [​IMG]

    From the side there is one area that was important to me when choosing my next bumper...
    I wanted more of the skid style (from the winch down to the radiator support) this time for better aerodynamics on the road and to slide over obstacles easier instead of ram them.

    Cool shot of the lights on (during the day lol).
    I have been wanting an Rigid Amber light bar for a while for those dusty conditions when the white is just too bright but finding a place to mount it and keeping the clean recessed look I go for again lead me right to Pelfreybilt with their integration of a light bar mount in the bumper.

    The smaller fog light holes also keep the overall look extremely sleek. I added the Rigid Industries DOT/SAE fog lights to them and holy shit they are amazing!

    Agreed... That always bugged me but at the time I thought I needed them. After a year of exploring and numerous scratches on the side of my truck I had no scratches at all on the hoops so it was easy to let them go this time around lol

    On the drive from CA to AZ.

    Whenever I see an old building that I might be able to walk through and explore I always take the next exit and prolong my trip. If it has a spot to grab a couple photos that is of course a plus :D

    Rigid SRQ2 flush mounts on both the trailer and Pelfreybilt hi-clearance rear bumper keeping the back plenty bright at night.
