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

Just ordered weather tech mats, wet okole seat covers for 2nd row and a baja standard rack. I've got a set of Shrockworks rock sliders headed this way as well but they won't be here till septemberish. The customer service at Baja is 2nd to none! I mentioned this forum and got 5% off the rack! Great group of folks over there.
 
Installed my rear long travel kit. Some pictures show a comparison between my previous set up.

The wife and I explored our first ORV park and spent a couple days in Michigan's thumb.

No, the bumper still hasn't arrived. Probably a couple more weeks I'm guessing. I went with Metal Tech's heavy spring.

Nice! I am thinking more and more I am going to go with this setup and bypass the KDSS swaybar in the rear. Especially after seeing [MENTION=89562]bimrunner[/MENTION] 's pics.
 
I made it to about 4 miles up to the Top of the World today. We gave up and hiked the rest of the way after I saw the 14" to 18" rises that my rig just can't clear.
My woman had some advice for other women passengers: Hang on to your boobs, practice swearing beforehand, plan appropriate revenge, get used to being airborne.
She also called me a redneck, knuckle dragging, mouth breathing, troglodyte for no good reason!

We did Top of the World in my Taco w/ 3" of lift and 33's. I can't imagine trying it with anything less than that. Those ledges are bigger than they look on the computer screen.

If you want to check out the trails in Moab with ease, and save your kidneys and spine, rent a UTV. We rented a Polaris Rzr. You can run the trails in 1/3 of the time, it's comfy, and you don't have to worry about breaking your rig.

I'm hoping my sway bar disconnects come in this week before Friday. That will be the final touch for this rear set up. Yeah, he has a nice build.

Bummer. Wish I had know you needed some. Had a full set I gave away a couple days ago since I decided to pull mine out.

Baby steps I see there!! Should have ran it together! I'd have walked you through!
 
Received my double disconnect rear sway bar end links that I got from Mike in his group buy. This will finish off my long travel kit nicely.

the emblem is glow in the dark that's why it kind of changes color under the sun.
 
last day of school

...so I parked alongside one of the seniors in my English class who owns this bad-ass multi-colored one. It has a few more miles than mine; well over 200k.

I was slightly annoyed, but then she told me it was for some families hit by a tornado yesterday. So I felt like an ass. :biggrin1:
