    Man! Beautiful day!

    Thoughts on the locker? Any troubles? Any "f yeah!" moments?

    Thinking of going midtravel too. Most likely Ikons. Might do the UCAs first and when the OMEs eat it, do the coilovers. Gotta do more research on the preload and how it'll play with the front bumper and winch (whenever I get that). However, regear and front locker might be the more capable upgrade.

    Love the locker, I didn't use it much (because Im a BA... :rofl:) but the piece of mind made me comfortable. No troubles for me at least, I enjoyed getting my first off road experience. And my F yeah moment, was using the locker to get out of a steep hill and remembering Im 2wd! :cool:

    Yeah, MT... Theres a difference between 5lug and 6lug... we actually met up with some RC guys and a dude had a 5lug LT set up... looked pretty sick! I'm going to be ordering a WIY front bumper kit and get that set up in prep for my MT build... I'll need to start sniping deals here and there to save some ka$h... lol

    P.S. The weather looked great... but the wind (not too windy) made it fucking cold!!!!

    Yeah, I'm looking at ~$2600 for a full Ikon setup or ~$2200 for 4.56 3rds + ARB front locker. The Ikon's wouldn't get me much over the OME except a little more droop. Probably should stick to my original plan of the regear and lockers.

    When do you think you'd go MT?

    honestly its not a bad price... I wanna say it'll be next summers project, but if I can start finding pieces online one by one hopefully sooner... Unless someone is selling a complete kit all together.

    But first off I need a front bumper and a skid plate
