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

Thanks! The entire NM/CO area we covered is absolutely beautiful.

With regards to the damage, I was referencing this bit here (will try to get better pictures later once we are back home).

Yea, I see it now. Looks like the impact peeled the skid out from the frame a little. That rubber part is the bushing for the sway bar, where it attaches to the kdss piston. We'd need better pics, but unless the piston is leaking it's probably fine. If the bushing is working its way out I imagine it could be realigned. Either way I don't think you have much to worry about.

forgot to add, run a search on the kdss bushings, I know I've seen several people with bushings working out, although I believe it's usually at the lower control arm not at the piston.
 
Finally got around to taking my old scratched rockers off. I was going to put on the new (to me) set I picked up from fyremanpat but opted to wait, hoping it will encourage me to order a set of sliders before it snows. It looks a little naked. [emoji15] Let's be honest... I'd probably just tear up the new ones in October at the Cove anyway. [emoji6]

Not a fan of sliders?:dance:
 
Bought a bunch of boxes at the electronics store.. Don't worry I'm only keeping one haha. Hope to have an aux fuse box set up later this week.

Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho

Packed my bags and went exploring for the week. Driving around Tetons at 1 am, we come across a few animals. Almost hit a bison the size of my car crossing the road then a heard of elk. Luckily, I was able to navigate the forest roads and found an amazing spot for the night. The last stop was Coeur d'Alene Idaho at an amazing cabin.

Most of these are 6000x4000 so you should easily be able to resize them to your liking. Let me know which ones you want. I can also send you the links from where I post them on Imgur
 
A couple weeks earlier I installed.....

OEM Roof Rails and a Thule 859 Canyon Cargo Basket on top....

links to imgur are fine, I can download/resize myself from there to save you the hassle. either jpg or raw format are just fine. jpg if you want to save bandwidth on your account.


greatly appreciate it. awesome photos.

Some nimrod rammed me and a prius that was parked next to me in a parking lot. His insurance is covering everything and I'll be needing a new rear bumper and possibly quarter panel. This means only one thing... time to buy an aftermarket bumper :)

Time to call CBI!
 
i like the cbi bumper but from what i understand you need to have the stock bumper installed and cut off a piece of it? i'd like a complete replacement.

Yea, you do cut up your stock bumper. From your pics it looks like yours would still be usable with the CBI. There are other choices that replace the whole bumper though.
