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

[KVA]

Finally installed my SW bumper, sliders and vision X light cannons.

...Nice...which Cannons did you go with? The new larger ones? I have four of the 4.5 inch versions behind the grill. The colored covers for these work awesome as well, though stick to the spot version. I have tried them all.

Looks great! Everyone is all about LEDs. It's good to see some solid rounds that will really throw the light farther than your headlights.

AND...what about that VW bus on the right?!?! Full roof rack?!?! 20+ windows?!?! That's a rare beast!!!

Thanks, the lights are amazing. They advertise 2500 feet of useable light. I didn't put a tape on it but I parked on a ridge and was counting trees on the other side of a valley that was probably around 2000 feet.
That Vdub belongs to a good friend of mine in Durango. He has 9 of those old busses in all conditions and varieties. Campers, rare ones. He fixes them up and sells them for fun. He's got some cool shit

Yea man they're the 6.7s. I thought about getting the driving pattern but not worth it eh? Where do you buy them? The vision X website just takes me in circles!
These things are amazing. Light cannon is an apt name.

Go with spot pattern. I bought from VisionX Wholesale...funny as they seem to fulfill the orders for VisionX. I did not see the 6.7 on their site though so you may want to chat. Key is to just ask up front for 10-15% off - or load your cart and abandon - they will email you with coupons until you hit the 10-15% off...lol

Received the other portion of my long travel kit. Now just waiting for the correct shocks to arrive.

Which springs did you go with? When I recently got my MT Long Travel they told me I HAD to get the 3" bump stop extensions. I wanted 2" thinking I could get some extra travel - it looks like thats what you got.

Finally upgraded my tires from Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor to Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs LT285/70/17. The SilentArmors were awesome tires for every day, the dirt roads/forest service roads I used, during the rain in Sunny Seattle and got me to and from the mountains all this last Snowboard season without a problem. However, I wanted a more aggressive tire without sacrificing winter and rain performance, after lots of searching around I settled on the Duratracs like so many others.

Gave it the quarterly detail! 6725 miles and 15 months later it looks like the day I bought it.

 

[adam2562]

drove 500 miles to gatlinburg, tn on vacation and back.. the truck did great! saw tons of 5th gens and 5.5gens down there and on the way the highest trans temp i saw was 207 on a big incline on 441 bypass through the smokies

 

[J Hoss]

Headed to mtn bike this early am. Driving through rutted mud trail, slid down ruts into brush. Made it to trail head and an hour into the ride my partner wrecked and poked a hole in his knee and broke his finger. His bike was unrideable so we pushed out 5 miles or so. Got back to truck and noticed big scratches from the headlight to taillight. Spent afternoon with buffer and compound lol. All in all an eventful day.

Glad you guys made it out, bad crashes could go way worse and in remote areas no bueno

Skin grows back, bummer about the bike. Sounds like someone is going bike shopping!

Thanks buddy. Thinking I might need some new Upper Control Arms to get my caster at +4.

I'm pretty sure mine are the two inch. Did you get the new steel extensions like the ones I have? They're no longer using the billet aluminum.
