Time for my Starlink Mini install!
I'll start by saying that the mounting method is not my idea, however, I spent a decent amount of time trying to find the cheapest way to do it. Some may have already found these exact parts, so I apologize if they've already been posted. I still have to trail...
Couple more updates coming soon! I wanted a Starlink Mini so I can have service wherever I am, so I ordered one of those. May just go with the ball mount that I've seen a few people do around here. I also wanted an external speaker for my Midland MXT275 GMRS radio because I don't have the best...
Been looking for some real rock sliders to replace rubi rails for more protection. That and a high clearance bumper but I figure most who put them on don’t want to sell them lol. The trails I’ve been running have been pretty tight so have something to pivot on rod with would be helpful. High...
Current plans for the near future:
5.13 gears
High clearance rear bumper
Rock sliders
Rocker armor
Bobbed bed?
I found some threads about DIYing it but not enough info for me to be comfortable winging it yet.
It has been! Very excited to see where it goes. I've debated bobbing the bed, and still might, but I want to get a high clearance rear bumper and see how that goes first. As for the actual bed itself, I love the toolbox. I may add side molle panels for a Hi-Lift and some other stuff. I've...
Spent the last year going back and forth between 4.88’s and 5.13’s. I wanted 5.13’s since I planned on possibly moving to 38” tires next. I had heard horror stories about them breaking, but talked to the guys from my local shop (Disciple Off Road, Visalia, CA) and they said 5.13’s will be...
I went to Moonlight Madness here in Central California and got to test the JT on the ramp.
I forget the exact score, but I think it was mid 800's.
I think I could have scored a bit better if I did a better job lining up.
That brings us to today!
I've changed a few small things, but have...
After the night run on Bald Mountain, I reached out to Infinite Offroad, who generously gave me a great deal on their Infinite Offroad Pod Lights (with amber DRL)and their LUX Monster Magnetic RGBW Rock Light Kit.
The install was easy and the pod lights and rock lights are awesome!
Around...
Next up was steering.
I bought the MetalCloak HD Steering System and installed it myself.
I also bought their alignment tool and did my own alignment!
That's better!
Now it was time to test it.
I took it up with some local guys and crawled up V Rock at Bald Mountain in Shaver Lake, CA.
I...
