    Sooooo seats came early :yay:

    Got the driver in last night. Have to take it back out to put the slider on but wanted to make sure it would work with these seat brackets
    Picture makes the fabric look really light but it’s almost ask dark as their website shows

    And they are incredibly comfy

    I use this, had it in my tacoma too
    https://www.amazon.com/HAMMERHEAD-R...+keeper+cb&dpPl=1&dpID=51yjaPiWTZL&ref=plSrch

    Used a small piece of string to tie it behind the mirror with the box hanging off that and then to the mic. I can get a pic tomorrow

    Tried to do the wagon trail but snow drifts at the high points were still 3-4ft deep so we took Pyramid Pass over to Cliffdell, went up to the rocks which is when Andrew's cousins' radiator blew. Got ahold of Dakota, he brought up leak stop, which got him 1/4 back then he just had to coast/us push him the rest of the way down. His cruiser is still sitting at the trailer parking lot back Manastash.

    @dakotasyota brought up leak stop and water to get Michael off the mountain. Lasted long enough to get him through the worst so he could just coast the rest of the way down.
    Dakota and I with funny rocks in the background. @Skootter14 you can see some of the lines in the background. Moon rocks is way bigger than this

    Awesome, can you honestly tell a difference off or offroad compared to the ballistics before they shit the bed?

    Nope. Everything I read before said the ballistics will handle much better on the road and won’t be as loud off road etc.. but I couldn’t tell a difference at all. Probably 60 off road miles (some of it bombing really bad forest service roads) and about 100+ Highway miles
