Day I brought it home
June 2018

 

After the 2/1.5" Leveling kit and new tires. 265/75/r16 BFG KO2 AT
September 2019

 

October 2018
Lower light bar installed

 

Nice rig! What leveling kit did you go with?

 

I did the supreme suspensions fronts and block rear from them. They replaced my u bolts and gave me a few extra nuts and bolts. I just drove around on more bouncy field tonight and barely notice the spacers vs letting the shocks compress before. I'm very happy and it was an easy install that didn't screw my alignment.

Traction boards. Would I have bought blue, no. Do I like the blue um yes.

The only color besides black and the dumb chrome door handles is blue. It matches the 2 livestrong style bracelets on my shifter. Those 2 bracelets say #Strong AF, the initials of my friend who fell over 50' in a climbing accident. I watched. Broken back, broken pelvis, broken ribs and more the Garmin in reach couldn't find signal. We had to help extricate her.

Those bracelets were a fundraiser to help with medical costs including a helicopter ride and 4 days in the ICU. Today she is fully recovered. Rod in her back but no permeanant damage.

Aka why the blue boards are such a great meaningful gift. Not only was it super generous, but my SS did some digging and made a choice I wouldn't of made yet am happier with!

 

Bit out of order. Ditchlight install August or September 2019.
