Rock slider finished

Finished the driver’s side today. Will probably paint next weekend. If my favorite powder coater had not gone out of business I would get them powder coated. Very pleased with the result.

Got my Sprint Booster installed last weekend and after a weeks worth of driving with it I am thoroughly impressed with this little device and would agree with most everybody else that it completely changes the driving characteristics of the 4R. I settled on green 7 for my daily driving setting.

I was planning on hiding the wire like that and even had the drill out to do just that. After I ran through the opening under steering column just to see how it would look/test fit; the wire being the way it is didn't bother me. The exposure is pretty minimal and it's out of the way. From my driving position I can't even see it; if i get annoyed with it I'll peel it off and drill a hole to run it up there. The way I secured the wire keeps enough tension so it doesn't move around or hang loose.

Keep mine with wire tucked under center console and leave it lay under the seat. First of all short of the initial setup I've never touched it and if I feel a need to, reach down to my right and it's always there. Easy and done
 
Brought home our 'new to us' TRD Pro. Beautiful drive from Grand Junction and over Monarch Pass. The 4R drives like a dream. Next up, tires... probably Wildpeak AT3's, followed by a Gobi roof rack and something to mount some good driving lights, perhaps an SSO front bumper.

Added the black end caps on my roof rack. No longer a silver rack on a blacked-out truck.

Also installed Buffalo Bayou front recovery points.

Is that the 'Ultra Swing' or 'Detours of Maine' tire carrier?
How do you like it?

Yes it is! I've had it for about 7 months now and I love it. Pretty much no wobble off road, construction is solid, and it functions great. Love that you can adjust how close the wheel sits to the hatch. One of the sole reasons I chose this one was because all the others had a huge gap in between and I hated that.
 
Finally got a little off-road time today with a friend with a ZR2. Not enough snow to try much and I made a few mistakes by forgetting some settings because it has been too long since I got it off-road. Attacked a small snow bank in 2WD, got over it, but wondered why I had trouble with it. My son had put it back in 2WD and I did not notice.
