Looks like a great time! So cool to see these new rigs out on the trail and not just cruising city streets. Todd Z.

Last year, it was probably high 70s/low 80s the day I was there - but seemed a lot warmer. Todd Z.

Do you make the one you sell on your site (and which resides in my recovery kit)? Yours are a deal at $25! Todd Z.

Such a cool thread - the amount of custom work you're doing on this rig is amazing! Looking forward to the progress reports! It's been too long since we've had one of your build threads here. Todd Z.

I just posted it on classic - hopefully some traction will be gained there. Todd Z.

Shouldn't last long at this price in this market. Todd Z.

The "too skinny tie rods" are already proving to be a problem for several folks. The elderly parents of a good friend of mine were stranded on the side of the road this morning when their 2.7 started making a funny noise (2200 miles on the truck). It sounds like maybe the engine dropped a...

Thanks for all the photos as well! I go every year as well (I think this was year 24 for me) and I always miss something because the show is so huge so I like to see what all I miss from other folks' photos. I had no idea Rotopax made a spigot for their containers - something else to buy :)...

Good info! I doubt the boost units have changed much either - there might be some slight massaging of the power piston size but I doubt it. The larger changes came between the older units from the '80s and units produced now. I agree that there are instead probably changes in caliper...

Saw Wil at the UPR/Desert Rat trailer yesterday at OE so I'm guessing he's working for Desert Rat now. He was busy with customers and I was on a mission so I didn't get a chance to stop and say hi. Todd Z.

Then they must not be the GM/Cadillac ones used in the TSM kit :). Can you post some pics so we can help you positively ID what you need? Todd Z.

Thinking about this some more, if they're Ford calipers, they're probably a kit from Stainless Steel Brakes that was available for many years (SSBC went out of business a few years ago but was bought up and is now back in business). They used Varga calipers in their kits which were used on...

Post some good pictures of the calipers and I'm sure we can help you. Todd Z.

Beautiful rig! GLWTS. Todd Z.

True - I was just very surprised (as was my friend) to see so much displaced metal, particularly on a truck with 35s. Todd Z.

I appreciate the review! A good friend of mine got his last week (4 door with Sasquatch) and was 'wheeling it at Rausch Creek in PA the next day. Ended up with a ton of scratches on the control arm brackets, shock mounts, etc. on a fairly mild trail and he's an experienced 'wheeler. I'm sure...

My friend's dad picked up his new Bronco on Thursday and they were wheeling it at a Bronco event in PA on Friday :). They really like it although he says it needs some armor underneath for some of the vulnerable points - they were scraping rear lower control arm brackets even with the 35s on...

Very nice - I hadn't seen that video yet. Todd Z.

I agree - they won't fit correctly on anything less than the "Warthog". The 4WP concept rig at Moab had them but they rubbed the fenders - even with their 'fender flare delete' and their 3.5" suspension kit. To not have them rub, you'd have to change the bumpstop configuration, which gives you...

If you're a zip-tie snob like me, you'll only use T&B Ty-Raps - black ones with the little stainless tabs in them :). You can use the proletariat all plastic ones in a pinch if you need to. We use them all over the place on high-$$ off road racing rigs and we use them on spacecraft that...
