    No news yet but haven’t had any pain all week. I’ve even introduced coffee, beer, and pre workout with no effect. Probably just need to stay away from energy drinks for awhile. I dont drink them much to begin with.

    Not even close. The issue was more the consistency. Could get to sleep or comfortable.

    It was hands down the best trip I've had in a long time. First time I've taken a trip with no concrete plans. I'll be posting up the pix and a mini trip report in my build thread hopefully tomorrow. I was going to suggest places to go for you but came back and read the issues you were having. No bueno. It's a good thing that my truck identifies as a 4x4. I don't think it would have made it up some hills if it new it was a pre-runner.

    Been awhile since any updates. Lots of stuff going on but I finally made some forward progress on the next step of the build. Lots of work to be had before San G!

    Had to take some tube off the bumper since I was hitting when turning.

    OEM are still the best. Rock auto we’re just an economical option

    I have one that’s 90% disassembled and the kit to reassemble already purchased. Just need to take the time to finish it.

    Doing 35s right. :thumbsup:

    Don't skimp on the cutting. I chopped out around 1.25inches for 37s and still rub a small amount at the fire wall on hard dynamic compression. I should have cut 1.75inches.

    That’s the goal. I’m already this deep so I’m trying to not cut corners anywhere, figuratively speaking. I doubt I go 37s anytime in the future, but i said the same thing about 35s. Lol

    Yeah, 37s with stock width arms requires chopping out almost the entire wheel well.

    I had an extra 1/4-3/8" space at the firewall with the coil removed and arms jacked up to my theoretical max bump height and it looked like I was good. If I was to do it again I would give myself an extra 1/2-5/8" space.

    Is that a wood block under the bump?
