    I see why you’re saying, I’ve done the back packing thing and it’s fun, I guess.

    Our main purpose isn’t camping I guess, mainly hunting and I guess we could live without the “comforts” but it makes things easier.

    To each their own.

    I've never needed more than 5 gallons of extra fuel. Even in the middle of nowhere Southern Utah trying to stay on back roads. I don't think you can get that far away from a gas station in the lower 48. :notsure:

    Wow. That sucks.

    Were you the one I was giving advice to with regards to removing your clutch torsion spring and replacing it with the linear spring? If so, new advice: don't do it.

    Death Valley 2018: Day 5 & 6
    Eventful Trip Home


    ...Now, an astute reader may remember that on our way to Beatty from
    the northeast, we nearly ran out of gas. Not to be outdone
    coming from the southwest, the fuel light in the truck came on just as we pulled
    out of Stovepipe wells - some 32 miles from Beatty...

    I like it. It allows me to have “bed lights” so I can clean fish/deer on the back or just work on the tailgate of my truck. I can put the tailgate down and see really well when backing up. I wanted to go that route because I didn’t want to cut holes in my new bumper.

    You guys think I should get an alignment after the install or wait (roughly)
    2 months until I get UCAs to do it?
