Found a smokin deal on some camping goodies. The growler is the perfect size for my fridge. I gotta have my iced tea. Also a 12ga steel griddle. Both items were on clearance.
Finally, added something i think a LOT of people overlook.
Other than that I’ve been prepping here and there for the camping season to start. We are going to End if the World here in AZ mid April . The wife wants a Cot so Teton sports it is. (I already had one from my Black River trip). Happy wife happy Overlanding Life.
Then Overland Expo, where i hopefully buy something I’ve had my eye on for 3 years.....
Kind of moving away from this site as many do. If you want to keep following our journey please follow us @providentpathfinders on Instagram.

Nice clearance finds and that socket string is a clever idea too.
I've been enjoying your build and adventures, may have to try the insta-thingy at some point.

Did a 37mile loop. Took along a drone pilot and got some amazing video (coming soon). It’s time. I have to upgrade to the OME 2861’s. I had back seat passengers and a fridge full of food and beverage and was smacking the poor excuse for bump stops all day. While I would LOVE Icon, KING or FOA, It’s just to Scottsdale $$$ for me. Prolly going to go Tundra Bilstein 6112 up front and 4th gen rear remote resi 5160s....

Reading over this thread was the motivation that I needed to make the firm decision to keep my 3rd gen and just do some basic mods to make it more enjoyable to drive. ( seating is my biggest gripe, then the crappy range because of the small gas tank) I was *this* close to getting a '14 Grand Cherokee Laredo w/ the QT II system on Friday but after much thought, I didn't think that I'd really be gaining much in the long run besides a newer vehicle and a hefty loan payment.
Those pics of your trip look incredible! They definitely make me miss living near the SW region of the country.

Yeah, i too wish for a larger fuel tank, now that i’m averaging 19mpg i really feel it.
I refuse to take loans or lease vehicles. We bought the 4runner with tax money and work bonus pretty much. You probably made the right choice not buying a Cherokee, they aren’t what they used to be.

Install is insanely easy for anyone who hasn’t done this. Honestly the toughest part was getting the damn brake line threaded into the calipers. A few EFF bombs were dropped. trimming the dust shield could be done with a good pair of tin snips and some sanding paper to clean it up if you don’t have proper tools.
Performance So Far:
Wish I would have done this much earlier than I did. Vast difference in braking. Just feels more solid and consistent. I took the time to do a 4 corners bleed with a vacuum using DOT 4.
We will see how they do once i’m loaded up and traversing the mountain grades to get to cooler weather this summer.
