Went out to Area 51 today with a couple of the guys.

Shrockworks front and rear bumpers with [MENTION=74569]SOcalTRAIL[/MENTION] front turn signal mod (thanks man!) using V-LEDs 50 Ohm water proof quick disconnect resistors for easy swapping in case of failure, Shrockworks engine skid plate, 2013 Trail wheels powder coated matte black, 285/70-17 33" Duratrac tires, Total Chaos UCAs, Old Man Emu 3" Suspension lift (2885/2898), SpiderTrax spacers

Sorry for the huge pics. I can't figure out how to make them smaller from my phone. Bonus shot of my conquering the most X-TREME snow pile in the parking lot

Got it good and dirty in DNWR in anticipation of Monday's wash and wax prior to the Gobi install.

 

[KyBritT4R]

Got my MB TKOs and Nitto Terra Grappler G2s installed.

I know this is an old post but is this set up completely stock? MB TKO 17x8.5 6-39.70 -6? Any spacers?
Sorry I'm new to buying wheels, kinda Alien to me but I sure like the look of your set up here.
Thanks.

Can someone explain why we still think it's a good idea to obscure our license plates on the internet?

(Legitimate question, not a snarky comment. I'd wager 99% of the people that do this have no idea why they're actually doing it.....)

 

[Matteblack]

Swapped out a couple more lights with LED

Nice! Now you just have to swap out that dealership license plate frame:thumb: Seriously though, can you share what LED bulb you used?

I have legitimate reason to do so. lol

Grey V-day at the park

They don't seem to want to fit tight when pushed back in that way.
You might want to loosen the front rail mount, then lay the strip in from the back. Make sure the channel is clean (no PNW moss or anything in there) and then just feed it in. It should go down easily but have a little resistance. You can always add something to the bottom of the mount (a thin rubber foot or something) to add a little pressure to the front. Not much though as it will deform the strip.

Ok cool. I'm having my rack installed tomorrow so I'll have them try that.

Thanks!

I got warrants... actually I don't I made that one up...

Added me some center caps. This is round one and the color is off. The area around the TEQ is almost a green shade, and the area that looks whitish is actually metallic silver (same a s vehicle color). It just didn't want to print the graphite shade on the metallic Silver.

So doing something different on the next round. Ordering up some Oracal Matte Graphite Metallic which is very close to the wheel color. Will then do the TEQ in cut Metallic Silver with a matte Lamination, and a set with the same back color and TRD in Red cut vinyl with a matte lam.

But observing the 5 ft rule. these look fine.

LED install over the weekend. Pretty easy but I will go back and try to make a better mount. I don't like that the grill is kinda blocking the light so next up is Satoshi mod.

What is the Satoshi mod?

I got a speeding ticket today... Got cited for tail gating someone (which is BS) and apparently that was a warning... but the actual ticket was cited 82mph in 65mph zone.

 

[Spenny]

Did some very important mods, stickers on the wind fairing and ham antenna mount on the rack.

Also sat inside putting the ham radio faceplate in just about every possible location, I cannot for the life of me figure a good place for it.

Went to check my air filter since I just had my 30k mile service and found a free wrench.

You do know that mechanics have to buy their own tools?

Went for a drive next to the canyon today scared the wife , then got into some good mud for the first time ,it handled it awesome .

Drove to Folsom Lake again. What a pleasant surprise: there is actually lake over there.
Looks like these couple weeks of rain did the trick and filled up the reservoir over 50% its capacity.

The last time I was there the lake was dry to 17% total capacity. People were actually boating where this picture was taken:

Today the lake was presented itself as a lake, not 4x4 park

Then you'd think they'd do a better job of keeping track of them. What's worse though, losing a 10mm wrench or admitting to your supervisor that you left your wrench in a customer's engine bay to be able to claim it?
