    I wouldn't get an OEM one then, be waste of money. You'd just need something to get you by

    That's a good point. Just depends how long I end up delaying that SAS project. Got some other priorities right now

    Getting some things off the list before AOP.

    Gussets welded up



    Bushings in the new rack! Hopefully it'll all be done and installed by Sunday.


    Then just need to fab a mid skid and weld back a tab for the front skid. Really hope I can get both of those done prior to the trip :fingerscrossed:

    Nope, we’ll see if I have to end up replacing those down the road. Not worried about it right now, but we’ll see

    Welp finally got my shit installed!


    Just needs an alignment. Hope to get some smaller things welded up before AOP. Mid-skid is on the back burner for a bit, got some Supra things to take care of :spy:

    I use large 8x8s. Keep about 9-10 18'' cuts of them in the shop. Have to when working on frank. Damn LT..plus having them to put on the jack is helpful a lot too.

    Thanks! It’ll be slowing down a ton this next year.

    Yup my buddy has All-Pro LT on his 2nd gen so he has to use both of our blocks to get it high enough

    So far no issues. Other than that nothing new to report, just trying to buy a house so that'll be the next major thing

    Yup! I should've taken more pics of my install but ah well. Everything has been working fine for a few weeks. Not to mention a night wheeling trip.
