    Between wiring up all the trigger wires and using the app on my phone, the only time I even touch is it to put my reverse lights on (camping lights more than anything). Or to manually cycle my ditch lights or light bar.

    Everything else is set to come up on power on (amber back lighting on ditch lights, fog lights, and lightbar), low beams trigger the fog lights, high beams trigger the fog lights to stay on plus lightbar and plus ditch lights. I love when people flash me so I can give them all the lumens back.

    Well this last weekend we headed up to Big Bear to celebrate a friends and my bdays with @desertjunkie760 @Prayn4surf @Slidoomz and a few others. Throughout the week we kept seeing temperatures change and just thought we were all going to be freezing! But, after climbing up the mountain and arriving to Big Bear we were all shocked to have some great weather all weekend long. Overall was a fun weekend of catching up with everyone and just sharing laughs. Both nights we stuffed ourselves with plenty of food and Tequila! We all made it out with no broke down trucks but all covered in mud! Now can’t wait for the next trip!

    Well, haven’t really done to much to the truck lately. Been caught up with a few things in life. But during our Big Bear trip this month I was helped/educated on a few things by @desertjunkie760 . Had some issues with the rear suspension, not getting full use out of it but Shane gave out the idea of switching rear shock eyelets to fix the issue. Ended up purchasing longer eyelets and now getting more out of the suspension. So big thanks to shane! :cheers:, it’s been bugging me for a while but just have not felt it being critical to address and was thinking more cutting and welding. So rear suspension is pretty set. Now might be making some changes to the front setup… 11FD17EE-8A74-4504-8A35-799E5E04742E.jpg6DAC1E33-C40E-459A-A834-5B964A42C292.jpg

    Big thanks to the following people the last few days helping get my JDFAB +2.25 LT kit installed. Had visited @81Trekker at the shop for some double checking and new CV axles. Turns out a few items were wrong on the kit (not by them) but got everything squared away just in time for this weekend. Had all hands on deck for this install. So big thanks to @desertjunkie760 @eccracer104 and @Slidoomz for giving me a hand. The install went smooth, and everything looks great. Tires clear and stick out just enough to match the rear. :D

    So far on road I like it, can be daily driven if I wanted to which it’s not. I’ve had a little fun on fire roads near my house and can definitely notice the difference. I have a few minor issues I need to address before I take it out. But also requires free time which that I have not had much of lately.
    No sweet jumps yet. But I do need a shakedown run in it.
    It’s been to the alignment shop, fire roads, fiesta island and the car wash. I didn’t have enough gas to make it to the mall

    Spent some time on the truck this morning. It’s been a while since diff fluids were changed so changed both rear and front, also had to do a little “trimming” to side bumper supports for the new resi’s.
