    Haha thanks man, it was a hard sell for him to let me do the HC DIY. Ton of welding and blending involved with them. Totally worth it in my opinion though.

    I can understand why he doesn't offer them though, I know with his other DIY parts there are always people that either don't understand how to read instructions or just can't comprehend how things go together, it would get frustrating fielding all the questions that would be asked about the full HC assembly.

    I actually called and asked, I got declined. I think if people would realize what type of work fabrication involved(even if it's a DIY kit) they'd realize the issue isn't with the product but p
    their lack of experience/skill.

    Just got back from a little 4 day getaway to Death Valley. Left home Thursday night and camped in the desert outside of Goldfield NV. Woke up early Friday morning and made our way to Titus Canyon. After Titus we drove to Panamint Springs to gets some fuel then hit the next dirt road to the south pass of Saline Valley. Camped out in Saline Valley for two nights, hit Lippencott one of the days and went to the Racetrack. On our way home we want out north pass up to the ghost town of Belmont and had a beer at Dirty Dicks. Ended our trip camping out at Spencer hot spring before coming home yesterday. All in all it was a great trip, truck had no issues aside from all of the suspension needing to be rebuilt. Here are a few photos from the trip.
