Looking good in that wheel well now lol

 

I'm going away to VT this weekend, otherwise I'd be there. Let me know any time you all have some work to do. I love turning wrenches on these beasts!

 

ehhhhhh

 

Not to invite trouble, but I am located in western ma. got a 10k lift, pm me if you want to get together and use it.

 

Oh damn!!! I definitely will make a visit

 

Thoughts opinions or reviews on these?? I'm pulling the trigger Monday morning

 

Or this one

 

THIS!

 

Tacos unite! Me my new cap and lift with some random taco with the +300hp American flag mod

 

What brand skid is that? did you bend that bad boy on your own!?

 

It's a Budbuilt.com skid it's pretty much bolt in. Super high quality although one hole was an 8of an inch off so I needed to use a dremal

 

Huge shoutout to @Wheeler's Off-Road Inc they are some quality people and worked with me frantically calling trying to get new parts in before my trip, they even helped me out on price and made sure it's gonna get to me a few days before I leave. Honestly knew they had good service but I don't think I'll ever go anywhere else after that.

 

What parts are you talking about?

 

Extended front brake line I did a droop test yesterday and it was too tight for comfort, locking lugs for my scs wheels, oiled air filter, wheelers superbumps
