    I'm down for Hollister hills in June. I just need to get my truck running again..

    I'm still waiting on the lockers and gears I ordered in November to show up before I'm ready to keep up on the black diamond trails

    That's good gearing; with 4.30's on 33s I was maybe 3mph off at 62mph (actual)?

    You should be able to hit some black diamond trails already.

    When does it all get installed?

    Nitro keeps pushing back the ETA on me. I'm hoping they ship everything in June.

    Can't buy them elsewhere? A different brand, Yukon? ECGS fully assembled clamshell/third?

    ECGS is top notch, but a few members are experiencing longer wait times @Wulf

    They were fast as hell for me when I ordered a locker, but I'm guessing supply is the obstacle here.

    I think ECGS has had them in stock, at least if you use them for install. I shipped my third on the 5th and should get it back tomorrow. They were able to get my third shipped out 5 days after it arrived at their receiving department which is decent assuming they had the parts and didn't install something else. UPS is moving slow though lol

    In hindsight, I should have and recommend doing that to anyone else. I got a 25% black friday discount and really don't want to lose it :anonymous:

    Just called Nitro and the current ETA is early July.. I'm having them ship the e-lockers now and may cancel the ring and pinions and go ECGS.

    Nothing interesting, other than having removed my tow hitch.

    VideoCapture_20220524-190128.jpg

    It looks less "old man" and more "off-road friendly" already. I know I said I'd take the bumper off but I'll have to do that after Memorial Day weekend; we'll be camping in Malibu.

    And yes I tucked in the wires after this was taken :luvya:

    Noticed that the spare tire holder is held by six 12mm bolts and span between the frame rails.

    Removing this will give me all the space needed to add supports in the form of a "V" for when I add a tow hitch through the rearmost crossmember.
