Final bit off fun on the way home: Nacimiento Road. Climbing right off Highway 1, this is a winding cliffside road that leads to Fort Hunter Liggett. Early in the morning on the coast, things can get a little interesting though. It's not uncommon to get a fog bank, and you can't always tell...
Haven't updated this in a while it seems. Only had one real trip so far this year, but it was a good one!
Courtesy of @broadicustomworks the wife and I joined a small portion of his West Coast Extravaganza.
Overall route (for us) was as follows:
Half a day through Yosemite Valley, staying a...
Pricey, but I'd say it's worth it. Great way to make use of vacant space.
Does this work with the older TRMR cross members?
On that note, is it still possible to exchange the older cross members for the newer ones?
While I'm not a fan of this look personally, I must tip my had to your creativity and the effort. Very well done.

Just got it back yesterday afternoon, so it's just been some street and highway driving coming home. Overall first impression is good. I...
Tune installed.
For those considering, it's really easy. I would really have preferred to do it myself, but with only 19k miles on my Bronco I want to preserve as much warranty as possible.
Called up the dealership I use for service. First guy in the service department had no idea what what...
A while back I settled on Old Man Emus as my planned suspension.
I have no need for the high-end, high-speed, desert running stuff. This is a daily driver that does trails with some light rocks - basically need more of an overlanding setup. I also don't need to spend stupid amounts of money...
A few final thoughts from this trip.
With the vehicle overloaded and a higher center of gravity, I did take highway curves a little slower than I normally would. Handled everything well. Only thing worth noting was a single time when I moved to quickly pass someone in a short distance while...
