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

I used the Cali Raised which is very similar to what Rago makes. IF you have fab skills I'd say try to make your own because I had to "modify" it too work lol.

Unfortunately don't have the space to fab stuff up. I have been trying to figure out to put the 25" ExtremeLED light bar on a 30" bracket. Thanks for the reply
 
Went out to the desert and lost the bolt which holds the rear shock absorber on the mount. The ball of the shock mount was caught between the mount, and the rim of the wheel (you can see how tore up the rim is there). Had to remove the tire to get it un-wedged, and put back on the mount. A few zip ties later, i was on my way home. Thats what i get for not checking the torque on my suspension ever. Lesson learned. Also will be adding bailing wire to my toolkit, as i would feel more comfortable with that over zip ties for this.

New bolt, and shock absorber on the way and should be here Tomorrow.

That is crazy.. glad you are OK
How the heck does that happen
 
Got back yesterday from a weekend camping and exploring Big Cypress National Forest.. Trying to take advantage of the last few weeks of not too hot and buggy weather. Trip report in my thread soon.

Had to do a double take on that 1st photo - thought an meteor went through the engine bay
 
Lift done.

Tires on

Life’s good.

Edits: except for the fact this picture is massive and I cannot for the life of me rfigure our how to resize here or on Imgur. Sorry.

I think I got it now.

Since the Maryland thread on this forum is slow enough to be beat by a sloth, I figure I'll post here also. Anyone interested in a lunch meet this weekend? Sunday the 4th Frisco in Columbia Maryland.
 
Nope. I change it myself every 5k, this is my 3rd oil change. I know it could last longer, but I don't mind spending the money on it.

I agree 100% I changed mine at 2K, 5k, and will change it every 5k for as long as I own it. Cheap insurance as far as i'm concerned. Next time buy 2 jugs though, cheaper than the jug and 2 quarts. Every other oil change requires 1 jug since you have half left from the previous change.
 
Check Engine Lights all coming on at 37,000 miles

Getting check engine lights turned off at dealer. They claimed was it's just a loose gas cap. I did check before going in. System had to be reset i guess?
