    Have not been on here for quite a while. But a couple updates. RTT. Ditched the steel bumper due to weight and rust and got an aluminum one made. Ditched the light bar due to way too bright up close and not enough bright far away, so I got a set of light force 240blitz. Much better. DSC06966.jpg DSC07010.jpgDSC06970.jpg

    Which bumper is that up front, or is it a custom made one? I like how to sides taper up

    It is a custom bumper that I designed with a lot of influence from the CBI bumper. If you look back on my thread I had built a steel bumper last summer, but for weight reduction I opted to sell it and have a aluminum one made. Tweeked the design a bit too. Very happy with it.

    So, I have made a decision on suspension. After saving up for Kings over the last year and not getting anywhere because other things keep coming up I have decided to get OME with 885coils. A little more realistic financially rate now. I will probably also get rid of my air bags and do a u-bolt flip kit with new bumpstops. It is a tough desition to go with 885’s because I am rate on the edge for weight. I have all aluminum armour up front.. so I have decided on 885’s for ride quality over the 886. Hopefully order them soon. Merry Christmas everyone.

    I have been collecting parts for a little while now. I have OME front and rear with 885, new OEM CV axles, new spindles (think I bent one), ECGS Bushing, seals. Just need to find some time to do it. Also, I have sold my bed rack and am contemplating building a new bed rack or finding a used cap and mounting my RTT on that.... I think the mid hight bed racks look really good, but the a cap would just be so practical.

    This past weekend I installed my new spindles, cv axles, ECGS bushing, front axle seals, OME with 885’s and did some POR 15 frame rust protection/ prevention. Just need an alignment and I am set. Excited to try out the OME set up. 4E070E3D-3EDA-4D4F-BE69-825DC7467554.jpg

    Got myself a canopy (or camper shell if that’s what you call it) and a prinsu rack. Took off my OEM roof rack too, may have to get a prinsu cab rack. Just seems so practical now. Also, just got a hard shell A frame tent trailer. Will make camping with the family much more comfortable CDA7BE33-CBFF-47A8-A4CC-13CFD21922BA.jpg
