That's a great photo of Escher!

 

Yeah, we heard you guys were up there from Mike. must have crossed paths in the fog somewhere! haha. we stopped at the first antenna turn off after the camp ground are. you guys must have drove right by us!

Instead of making a right on east camin you make a left on west camino. by the other gun range.

Right!!

 

If anyone is in need of good firewood, fig mtn campground just cleared dozens of pines and there are hundreds of real nice wood rounds up there. Just filled the bed of my truck.

 

Bring some of those on the trip. We need a ton of fire wood.

 

I grabbed as many as I can carry, going to take another tirp up there next weekend with my brother to fill up the bed again, you and Eric should come.

 

Do you have to go up to Santa Maria for the firewood permits, or can you get them locally?

 

You can just go up there and fill the truck? no questions asked? Who actually owns that land?

 

Almost certain you need a permit.

Great question. There's literally hundreds of them, filling the campground, and completely lining the road. Camp host didn't seem to have any problem with me filling my bed

 

Nope, I called all around over hell and high water and apparently FOX has not been keeping up with production or really communicating with any of their suppliers at the moment. after scouring the internet, the only option i could find FOX-wise was a single 2.0 remote resi with the adjuster and a another one without....talk about Frankensteining some shit together. Extremely frustrating at the least.

As of now I'm looking at best case scenario getting the rears late January and have just accepted my fate. Looks like the trip is going to be a chance for me to really practice taking it easy and slow. Here's to seeing what stock is really capable of.m

 

Sounds like @RelentlessFab dropped the ball on your armor and bed bars too, eh?

 

check out boss 4x4. They helped me out when I was hurting for shocks and needed them fast.

 

Bummer about @RelentlessFab . Two months without even starting and having money in hand is no bueno...

 

Not sure where you're getting that info, his order has been in the works for several weeks actually(parts get prepped and set in que for welding far in advance from completion date). 8 weeks on sliders is half or less time to where we've been in the past on sliders so at this point this is still ahead of the game. Our site quotes 10-12 weeks currently

 

Don't have any info, just heard from a buddy who isn't stoked...

 

We're up front about lead times, but we also do our best to fulfill orders in time for customers' trips when they're near those time estimates. In this case that is what we're doing, but we're still under our estimated times as well.

 

Good on ya!

 

@YoungGunz Did you look at lead times when this order was placed... because if not, this whole conversation is just silly.

 

Nope. We're going to Death Valley, not much firewood there. All this concern and frowning upon for a few rounds of pine? Fuck's sake
