    I was finally able to get the tires mounted and balanced yesterday. Spent some time this morning doing some trimming. I'll work on getting the Cab Mount Chop done here in the next couple weeks.

    Yes, it's a poser shot, but I haven't had a chance to get it dirty yet.

    I've got two new videos for ya! One is just a quick raw video from a couple hours ago playing with my new suspension. The second is my newest vlog. It's actually the same trail but before I got the new tires and suspension.

    Just added the driveshaft spacer kit from ARB to the truck. It took care of the tiny vibrations I was having. Also aired up to 42psi on the KO/2s. I've got a few hundred miles to put on this weekend and am shooting for a little better MPG. lol. What PSI do you run your tires at on the road?

    That’s about what I had in it until a couple hours ago. I really need to do a chalk test soon but I haven’t had time yet.

    I run my KO2s (265/75-16) at 34psi. Ive run them before at 32, and then 40 which was pretty rough even on the roads, so far 34-35 has been my sweet spot

    Just got back from a great weekend of rock climbing and camping.

    I got some new parts added the weekend before too! My new @Mobtown Offroad sliders are seriously awesome. Very impressed with the quality and mounting. The instructions were a little out dated as they’ve obviously made some changes since they were made. All in all not a difficult install and very well built!

    It's official. I've placed my order for a GFC camper! Before next year's big trip I'll either have, or be traveling to get my GFC. The other big thing I'd like to do this year is regear. It's not nearly as bad as my old jeep on 35s with 3.73 gears, but it could use a regear. I'm learning regearing a taco is much more expensive! It was right around 1k for the jeep, I'm hearing closer to $2200 for the truck! :confused:

    What size tire are you running? Didnt see that on the first page anywhere..

    Also, how did you make the non-beadlock (center spoked) portion of your wheels darker? Im running the same ones on my '12 Baja but they are way lighter - really like the looks of yours!

    Good catch! I need to update that. I'm running 285/75/r16s.

    From what I've seen there are a few different variations of our wheels. I haven't done anything to darken mine. I've seen some guys have their's powdercoated, but mine are still TRD Pro Stock.

    Should have just built it up as crawler with wide fenders, no need to buy the overpriced fenders. Looks great though!
