Jason the rack looks fantastic, I did a super fast coat of black that does not do the quality of the work on the rack justice.

A quick picture more to follow.

Thanks Bill. Glad you are happy with it so far. Can't wait to see it on the D2.

Did you remove the crossbars on your front rack?

Detoured I never had cross bars for the front.

Drow thank you Sir.



I have to admit though taking it wheeling made me want to do a lift add a bumper some sliders etc. but I am determined to keep her as stock as I can

It's funny though we always tell people before you lift it take it out and wheel it stock. I had forgotten a couple of things about wheeling a stock truck. When I took mine out it has MT's and diff guards. That's it, you have to keep in mind the limitations of no lift but if you pick your line properly and don't let your ego get in the way of the go around being the right choice you will have fun.

1. they are capable as heck right out of the box, if they are functioning properly. i.e. no 3 amigos

2. even without the cdl engaged and working TC the DII with good tires can handle quite a bit. I even got it slightly cross axled with opposing corners off the ground and she clawed her way through

3. They are just good comfortable trucks for wheeling

4. It can look totally mall crawler and still be good lol
