What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

This happened today:

Aw man you beat me to it! I'm planning to order the same tire and size...my SCS Ray10's are sitting in my living room looking all naked right now.
:bravo:
 
Just joined 5th gen crew a couple Saturdays ago. Installed some LED reverse lights yesterday. Nice, no brainer of a mod since I'm so night blind.

Wide angle lens makes the 4th gen look crazy, haha:

The current rear suspension set up is Sonoran steel links & pan hard, Icon overland springs, hydraulic bump stops and a set of Toytec BOSS Rear Remote Reservoir Shocks. The rear tire carrier is fully adjustable which is super nice so it's easy to keep the CG low. Below is a pic of the truck with the current rear suspension which adds a lot of rake but when it's loaded down its perfect....

do you think you could take a pic of the tire carrier without the tire on? i didn't know they were adjustable like that. would like to see how that works. pretty decent rear window visibility that way too it seems

Found a set of low mileage, complete trail rims. Buddy and I have TEP's, so we're both doing matching spares and then he needed two for his trailer.

Craigslist steal.
 
I had a busy week with my new ride.
-Bilstein 5100 fronts at 1.75".
-Tore the lower ball joint dust boot during the install. Oops. Don't do that.
-Decided that 1.75" was too high up front with stock rear. Back down to .85" during the dust boot replacement.
-New stock size KO2s on FN FX Pros. Love the new stance with the 8" wide rims and 0 offset.
-Alignment.
-Doubled the mileage on its maiden voyage to the mountains for a powder day at Copper Mountain!

Nothing too special at this point. I got the windows tinted and am now shopping around for suspension and rims. The list of things I want to do keep growing the more time I spend on this forum!
 
Went down to the state parks office to get my 4x4 Beach Fishing permit today, had to check out the waves also due to the Nor'Easter rolling in. Not surfing material, but they looked rough!!! Also saw a bunch of deer out there minding their own.

Did the state park office happen to say if they plan on reopening Gilgo Beach this year? Sucked having no place to surf besides Democrat Point

From my understanding it's closed for good. The last time I went down there to explore the old cement building foundation that was buried under the sand was exposed. Supposedly that was like 15' deep. Erosion is getting real bad. Maybe 25-30' of beach before the dunes on high tide. The surf at demo is great as long as you get out past the sandbar on the west side of the Jetty. I've seen some good overhead days over there. Also try RM Field 3, Great surf there as well.

Ordered Level 8 MK6 wheels in bronze. 17x8 -10
Going to be wrapped in 265/70/17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires. Getting them installed Thursday
 
Ko2 day, evening sun approved

275/70, no lift, no rub at full turn, forward, reverse, sideways, diagonal, acute etc. My first time buying big tires so don't really have any experience to compare to. Rides good to me, not any more road noise that I can tell. But it's not like I'm the first to put ko's on and there's plenty other write ups. Now only if I can pick out a wheel.



 
Finally able to activate my account.! Whew ;)

purchased a 2016 limited last week, bought trd wheels with KO2's, looking to add the Trail Rockers and running boards next!
 
I recently got the DJI Mavic Pro and its awesome! compact but powerful!!

Flew it over the weekend and tested out my dog cam lol

anyways take a look at it, i'm sure you will be amazed on what it can do. :)

Not going to lie the footage is beyond impressive, does it have an auto follow feature? I was looking at something half that budget but I might have to reconsider!

it does everything you can imagine ;) Its my first drone and its so easy to fly. Very stable! It would follow me until it ran out of battery and it would automatically land when its low on battery.

The tech on it is insane. DJI know what they are doing. Check it out on youtube and read about it. The best drone in the market in term of portability and function for the price!

Been waiting for it since it came out in Sept! I got lucky and got it the end of Dec lol A lot of people are still waiting to get theirs.

Let me know if you have any questions :)
