    Check Out My Build Thread :)
    @Predator Strikeforce debating on the bushwackers for a while now and seeing your comparison it looks like you've made up my mind for me lol just curious with your set up at 295/70/17 and my current set up at 285/70/17 i was wondering if you have any side profile shots of the tires/flares? my biggest concern is having the tire looking sunk into the wheel well verses being almost flush... any help/pictures would be greatly appreciated.

    I talked to Nitro and they told me they'd probably have new gears some time in June, they said there would be something on their Facebook page when they were finished

    No offense, but I'll never run a Nitro gear ever again. Too many problems. I'll wait to find OE Toyota gears or a reputable gear source. Not crazy about Yukons either.

    I havn't found one yet for the Gen3 rear axle, other than OE Toyota gears, but they are a bit pricey. You can get them in 4.30:1.

    Sweet truck! You sold me on the seat covers when I saw the M&P in the pocket slot, that's a sweet idea they have. Also, the gear in the truck vault has gotta be damn near the cost of the truck itself! NODs, thermals, SBRs, cans, you got all the cool toys!

    man your rig is wicked awesome for sure thee nicest 3gen I've seen by far. oh ya and I thought I had a pretty nice predator set up, but unfortunately after seeing your truck/setup my FoxPro fox jack 3 and pre ban AR just isn't going to cut it haha true story plus my state is anti gun and totally against night ops for controlling our predator population. keep up the awesome work .....

    How's your Kryptek wrap holding up? I'm now thinking of doing this to one of my trucks. I know that the wrap can be purchased online but do you know if I need to find a 3M installer to put it on? Also, did you get it for a 2 door truck or 4 door? Just curious about the size.

    Holding up great! Super high quality stuff. I would recommend a professional wrap installer. Doesn't matter if they're 3M certified or not. I also ordered the 4 door because I needed extra material to wrap the ARE cap as well.

    That's what I figured. Thanks for the confirmation.
