What part of Cali are you from? I moved to Knoxville last year from Patterson, but am originally from San Jose. That state has become unlivable in so many ways…

I’m in East TN, new to this side of the country and looking forward to hitting some trails.

How were the conditions up there?

I was wondering the same thing. I fished the Yuba river last week and saw the “Marysville OHV Area”… looked like a cool place to explore and mess around. Went up Hwy4 yesterday and stopped by sourgrass, only saw one jeep airing up after running the trail. With minimal snow this year many areas...

Went to Carnegie with my son to check out what they had. Pretty small 4x4 area as it’s mostly dedicated to dirt bikes, but plenty of stuff to mess around on.

Replaced the bulky roller fairlead that came with my winch with a steel hawse style I snagged off of Amazon. You can almost see my front license plate now.

Got my bajarack yesterday. Took the old rails off, cleaned everything up, and bolted it up. No idea why my photos uploaded all wonky

Post up next time you’re heading out, I’ll see if I can make it.

Clocked, mounted, and relocated the control box for my Badlands 9k winch.. this thing was $290 on sale. We’ll see how long it lasts…

After splicing in my blinker lights to my corner lights I noticed I was going through blinker fluid like crazy. Added a blinker fluid reservoir to hopefully keep me from having to top off all the time.

Changed the oil, changed the trans oil with MT-90, and added a ExtremeLed stealth bar with some Amazon mounts on the new bumper.

Any pics of the new bumper? I’ve been eyeing those for a while…

I went back and forth between Sonoran Steel and the Toytec/ Eibach kit for a month before I ordered the SS 1.2 kit. From what I remember reading the Eibach coils didn’t do as well with a heavy front end. Now that I’m on the third perch I don’t think I’ll need to tear them apart again, we'll see...

They are Tundra 5100’s with the Tundra TRD coils that came with my SS 1.2 kit. I rode them on the 2nd perch with a stock front and they were stiff.. My 1/4” 4Xinnovations front skid helped out a bit, but the AOR plate bumper made it feel like driving a houseboat. The third perch brought the ride...

Good to know, I did see that the bushings in the vid are different than mine from 2018. The press in poly bushings with steel sleeve inserts on my JBA’s, as well as on my Readylift UCA’s that I installed on my Ram pickup stated to torque with the tires on the ground.
