Sweet!!!

I’ll take the parts as they come in, even if one per day at a time. Keep the delivery drivers less mad at me

Her 40’s showed up. Don’t realize how big they are until seeing them in person and compared to the 37’s

Chonky bois for the chonky differential have arrived. Gotta say-the RCV packaging was waaaaaaaaay better

I appreciate that nod but I think the credit needs to go to someone else... I knew about them. But I do not have those and have not recommended them because I have not had them. Those look pretty healthy and appear to be something I may want to look into. I saw them come up in a discussion about leverage on the upper control arm with portals that could cause the upper control arm ball joint to fail. I think that is where I saw a discussion about them.

Who is the manufacturer?

Heck-I followed your link to find them

The logic is there for their use especially with the portals. They weren’t as thick as I expected but still better than stock.

Solo Motorsports. I won’t be installing them until everything else goes on. Or should I say everything is torn off and before installation of the upgrades…

See how I am.... I am old. I forgot what I had for breakfast.

Those Raptors really are distracting

One of those things where I’m trying to do it right from the start.

That was in Moab.

Also probably a whole lot cheaper doing it all at once rather than one thing at a time.
Smart move, and can't wait to see the results.

Another update-The Apex valve stems are ridiculously awesome for airing down. They were certainly the talk of the group being so fast. To air up all four tires from 12 to 33 psi seemed to take about half as long using the same pump and lines compared to another 35”17R rig going from 15-33.

100% people forget that no matter how fast or how many CFMs their pump can handle, they are still limited by the actual valve stems of the tires.

Whatever happened to getting a vehicle and building it up over time and enjoying it a little bit out of the box. I see so many people on here having to change the whole truck as soon as they get it. With all that money invested I would of just bought a Braptor lol! Anyway build seems awesome but damn some of y'all need to just take your time.

Had this vehicle for two years. Done plenty with it stock and now it’s time to make it better. Congrats on wanting to buy a Braptor. I already have a Raptor-my third one, in fact. This might sound crazy but I’m not interested in a Braptor. I’m building this the way I want now.
