2 chips have come on a Santa Ana wind day, no car even in front of me for a few hundred feet in any of the 5 lanes. Santa Ana winds blow all the Little Rock’s and crap around here bad. Especially when going out to the IE or traveling on one of the beautiful freeways under construction.
My other...
Yup, during the day just a constant bass. Swear it got louder at night too. Fully expected it to stop by 11pm latest. Holcomb Valley Ranch said the Fest got all the necessary permits and they relied on the FS Rangers to tell people about the noise (which is weird considering it’s on private...
We made it up the Big Bear this weekend to go camping at a Yellow Post Site and hang out and do a little adventuring (not really much actually wheeling). Went to our first 2 marked YP sites and they were full so we went to YP 31 beyond the Holcomb Valley Ranch and that was free!
It was my dog...
Was able to attend a couple days of the Cal4Wheel Death Valley Experience this year. Didn’t do any of the hard rated trails this year but looking forward to doing those next year. It was hotter than hell out there (during the March heatwave here in SoCal) so it was 100+ everyday. Stovepipe Wells...
Got the Bilstein 6112s and Icon UCA installed today. Man does it look great AND love the ride so much more. Pretty much bang on 2 inches in the front and like 1.5 rear. Ended up not needing a new rear Trac-Bar
Totally late to this thread and a bit unrelated but you mentioned you're going to DV in March. If you're not a part, join Cal4Wheel, they're doing the Death Valley Experience 3/19-21. If you sign up before 3/2 you'll get the cheaper (still expensive) pricing. Cal4Wheel is a great organization.
I installed mine a few weeks ago and this is a brilliant idea. I see it scraping the area it's leaning on already so I will definitely have to do this.
Read through this thread by @Snacktime. Seems like what you want might be a perch collar

I've read multiple threads/comments from people messing up their frame horns by putting on a winch mount w/ winch without reinforcing the frame horns. I don't have one yet but when my dad was going to buy a winch mount and winch, I convinced him to buy the frame horn reinforcements. ADD's is...
Got out to Drinkwater and Deer Trails in the Angeles National Forest. They're pretty rutted out and closer to a 6 in difficult right now I'd say. Also kept going when we could've turned off on City Highline and got into some pucker situations toward the end and got some scars on the passenger...
Sorry a little late to the party but from KOH, we stayed at BroncoNation Basecamp too. Bonus photos with Vaughn Gittin Jr and him showing the damage from the EMC Bronco (jk those photos aren't posting for whatever reason). Have one with Loren too but on my dads camera still
I'm getting the Icon DJ Pro UCAs, excited for them as well. Any little bit helps off-road so can't wait to get it out soon after the 13th.
I was really on the rear lower for a bit but again just with how much on road driving I do, just put it on the shelf for now. I'd love to hear how your...
Hey I appreciate all the feedback and stories! I'm a non-sas 2 door badlands so slightly different but definitely trying to keep it as low as possible with the 6112s. I'm getting the UCAs regardless, but I decided against rear lower control arms just with how much on road driving I do vs...
I appreciate this! I had the guys at Shock Surplus say yes good idea to do it but again been split otherwise. I'm not getting it installed there but I like your idea. I'm gonna email the shop and see if we can see how it sits with stock rear trackbar and then go from there. Thank you!

I studied this graph a lot ha, thank you. Yes, nothing else is being added and as of now really gonna be at the lowest circlip on the front and maybe 2nd, max 3rd on the rear. That supposedly gets a non-sas Badlands to right about 2" which is what I'm going for (and have seen on some other...
