    Overlanding at 33mph

    I think it's rad. Considering mountain bikes start at $3500 for anything remotely decent and average price for a good bike is $5500-$7000 the Rocon pricing isn't that bad. :)

    Overlanding at 33mph

    That's rad! :) You should list where you're at specifically. NorCal is a big area.

    GMC Canyon SLE CCLB: Boise ID

    Just getting caught up. Nice video. You shoukd do some voice over commentary. :) The DV8 bumper install is pretty straight forward. There are no provisions to hold the lighting wires so I used zip ties. If you buy some of those square 3m zip tie holder stickers that would really help. I wire...

    2018 GMC Canyon MTB/Overland/Adventure Rig

    While cutting out more of the waffles in the front wheel wells I noticed I'm rubbing the actual fender at the bottom. So I starting cutting the fender plastic to provide more room and thought why not cut it off completely from the fog lights down? It's been done before and doesn't look bad. A...

    Definitely not what I'd consider "bolt-on". Nice work!

    I was clearancing the front fender with the angle grinder when I noticed the passenger side sway bar end link was missing. :openmouth:

    Light weight tear drop or RTT for Subaru?

    Pick up a nice used RTT and rig up a hoist so you can do the vehicle swap easier and safer.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Our trucks are a pain when it comes to fitting larger tires. They fight you in every way. :) 1.5" or larger spacers fit no problem. 1.25" spacers work on OEM wheels. Less than that and you're cutting studs. I prefer my tires close to flush with the fender for mud, rocks and dirt flinging reasons...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I installed a set of 1" spacers on the front to stop tire rub on the frame and upper control arms. On the 2nd Gen GM Twins, 1" spacers require you to cut the oem studs down so they will clear the back of the wheel. It was a simple process and you don't lose any of the threads so it shouldn't be...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    While playing in the snow yesterday I noticed that in 4Hi with traction control off but stability control on, the engine won't rev as high and the brakes are automatically applied. In 4Lo TC and SC are turned off and there are no nannies trying to ruin your fun. Now I just have to figure out how...
