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

I added my new RCI aluminum skids and rock sliders. Great fit and finish - an easy afternoon solo installation after doing some reading here on the forum and watching a couple of Youtube videos. Thanks Josh
 
Installed the amber marker lights in the grill.

Part of the Union Springs trail at GWNF from Sleeter's overland trip!


I think my daughter crapped her pants a little bit on this part of the trail.

(fun starts about a minute in):snacker:



Very cool, nothing better than a kids pride in their parents. "We did it Daddy!" Priceless!
 
Washed her for the first time in like 6-7 months, dunno between CA drought conservation, off roading, and frequent rains, seemed like there was never a good time.

Also mounted my new CVT Mt. Shasta RTT. What a ***** and a half to mount to the Gobi adjustable crossbars. Ended up removing the bars and mounting the rtt to the bars first on the ground then moving it up top. It ain't coming off anytime soon.

Suburban overlanding. LOL

Do you think the Gobi is worth the $? Also, what the CVI black thing on your rack and what's under it?

Thank you Charlotte and Ryan my friendly neighbors who own a 4th Gen and took this shot of my campsite with their Flag in the foreground. Dozens of local Jeepers had a pavilion a few campsites over, so he hung his flag first thing, just to keep em honest. Beautiful weekend here in FLA with Lows in the 40s....perfect camping weather before our 9 months of Summer.

How long did t take from order to delivery?

I ordered them as part of the group-buy in early March (the 8th or 9th) and Josh sent me an email on April 3 to come pick them up. I had my rock sliders powder coated, so it added a week or so in addition to the 30+ in the group-buy keeping them busy. RCI is a small company, but the quality and engineering of their products are first-rate.

It's better than the stock rack. Worth the cost is relative but I have no complaints.

The CVT thing is the cover to my CVT rooftop tent.

Picked up my rig. Put on the March Madness Special from Total Automotive Performance. 3" 2.5 Fox w/res in the front with 1.5" 2.5 Fox w/res in the rear with OME 1.5" springs. Then I put Dirt King (heim) UCAs. Pretty happy with how it turned out. Have a tiny bit of rubbing on the front mud flap when I'm all the way locked.





 
Swapped my 285s for 305s

Swapped my 285/70R17 KM2 for 305/65R17 Deegan 38. I like the wider footprint
