it does not matter whether you have agreed with me in the past or not, facts are facts. i don't respond kindly or friendly to people who mickey mouse things or ignore warnings. That's just the way I am. Sorry that hurt your feelings. I say things have to be done one way or it's wrong BECAUSE...
GoFastCamper.
my GFC. They also have one that does not have tent.
the only, and i repeat, ONLY camper system that is used in actual Baja pre-running and chasing. the ONLY camper that can take jumps. the ONLY camper that can support a vehicle's weight on it.
RC, even though they say it is...
you're wasting your breathe.
some people lack listening abilities and have to FAFO the hard way. they don't understand why things are done a certain way and not done a certain way. they are all about the look over the function. "not running baja" or "not offroading hard" is like a magic phrase...

3 Chrysler and 1 Toyota. Funny is the DT and the JT used to be Toyota owners too.

The Original Camp Spot... where that tower is.
There's the sign that took my door somewhere behind the truck.
Pulled into camp... secondary location
Having a 2500 on Carli doing the pre-running is always great idea hahaha
I have ZERO idea why chef used...
his is bulletpoint
but you can buy from ICS which is made in US and use 67Design arms and mounts.
67D is the original and made in US (in Texas) and is honest if there's foreign components used.
same. im happy with my H&K
i don't blast music loud and I listen to XM and spotify.
i've been listening to podcasts since Alaska so i don't even notice sound quality anyways.
a friggin sign post.
i was making a u-turn after the scout walked the entire 0.5 miles to see if the steep climb is doable and the proposed campsite was worth it and the verdict was yes trail's doable not much going on there but it was 35mph+ nonstop wind at the campsite, so we made the...
well discovered a puddle under the front bumper on Monday.
chased it and turned out it was windshield washer fluid. had the shop ordered one bottle assembly and then topped off the bottle.
got home, saw some green residual on the ground where I park. God knows how long it's been leaking.
Bottle...
if you're running 12.5" wide then the stock offset will not be good.
you'll need either spacer (personally a no) or wheels.
if you're gonna do wheels do 18" instead.
Took the truck on a 60 miles commute to test ride quality. Unfortunately it is inconclusive due to traffic.
However, I created some graphics to illustrate the difference between Clayton 2.5" HD Triple Rate and Carli Rebel HD, with 880+lb of constant load.
You can read more analysis in my...
Alright so some comparison in the levelness:
This is when the truck had 600lb springs in the front and old Carli Rebel HD springs in the rear.
It is subtle, but the front is sitting higher than the rear due to weight. Tape measurement tells me 1" difference.
Using Photoshop when I was...

the carli, thuren, king, fox 2.5 are not really for "overlanders" per se, though a lot of overlanders use them.
i use them because i go fast, and i've blown my bilsteins going fast on my 4R before.
Catching air... in the forest
Bilstein 5100s if your pocket is not deep.
Bilstein 5100 all around with UCA.
or Ironman 4x4 FCP all around with UCA.
if you're on pavement only then Carli Commuter PACKAGE. Comes with EVERYTHING you need and no more. Saves you all the head scratching.
If you go hard off pavement then King...
Falcons? or Falkens? lol
the AT3w are good. 40k miles on them and the treads are still near new. I got sidewall bulge because I was doing freeway speed across some rough desert terrain and did not see the giant rocks hiding in the shadow. If I slowed down i'd be fine.
For slick s utah mud...
