KcEastSparks Hot Spring Finder 5000

haha that would be sick!!!! I don't think I'll be able to make it home this summer. She pulled up next me as I was getting off the highway to grab gas when I was leaving Reno back in Jan. So jealous of your relentless builds. I know I should have done it when I went with my armor.

The mounting sleeve is an additional $37/each

Well there’s always next year haha. Hey I heard CBI has a pretty good resale value if you ever change your mind...

Just kidding man, your truck looks awesome and I’m pumped to see the rear all done up!

 

I’m not sure if I missed it or not but I tried to reread the past 4-5 pages to find it and couldn’t... what was the reason for selling the BP51 setup, if you don’t mind me asking?

 

I don’t think I ever posted about it. I wanted to do the rear shock relocation for more travel. With my bed rack and HC rear I’m going to have a lot of weight in the back and the rears didn’t seem to like all the weight when I was loaded down for camping.

That and OCD wouldn’t let me run BP51 fronts with King rears, and @RelentlessFab hooked me up with a local guy who was looking to buy BP51s so it worked out perfectly.

 

I’m the same way, it’s gotta match! Glad to hear you didn’t have problems with them but I think I’ve narrowed my search down to Kings as well, BP51 was/is up there too though!

 

That would be super awesome! I'm all about the gram as you know haha So much has happened to the truck since you last saw it that day. Gotta come checkout all the new upgrades.

 

Great looking truck! sub'd

 

Thanks man!

 

Yeah no problems by any means. I just think the ease of adjust and having the Kings valved for my added weight is going to make a big difference. And the rear shock relocation will be rad because who doesn’t want more droop

 

Doing some research on DIYing the rear shock relocation and I think I’m just going to remove the bed to make everything a little easier and more accessible. My @ARCHIVE hangers should be here Friday which I was going to install first but I might wait to do it all at once and the added room will probably help with removing the rivets.

Now I’ve just gotta solidify a plan for bump stops and I should be good to go!

 

Late to the conversation, but have you considered the Archive relocation? No other kit gets the shock eye as high

Honestly man I didn’t even see you offered it until after I ordered mine. Looks awesome and definitely a lot higher up! That picture you posted of Taylor’s rig rocking it looked awesome

 

@RelentlessFab U-bolt flip kit installed, literally a 5 minute job. Super easy and super happy with it. Going to wait on bump stops until I get hacking away on the shock tower and all that fun because I don't really want to do it twice.

 

Drove up to Peavine today. The main road had some big snow drifts so I opted for one of the less traveled roads that led to one of the peaks. Mellow little climb with a bitchin view.

 

*zoom enhance*






I could see my house from there if that CSI shit really worked...which is where I'd rather be right now...or at the top of Peavine. Next Reno GTG should be up there for beer and pizza.

 

That’d be rad! There’s a lot of random roads that branch off that would be cool to check out!

 

Should I go long travel or get all the smaller accessories I’ve been eyeballing?

 

Depends on what you're going to do with your truck.

 

That’s probably the more important thing I need to figure out. Definitely tons of camping and off roading but not a ton of crazy high speed stuff because it can’t go fast haha

 

Yes.
