Thanks guys.











I kind of rushed the pics yesterday so I'll try to get a couple side shots of it on level ground today.

Did you get any sweet pics of you jumping it?

I jumped it over Candy Mountain but the GoPro was turned off.

FWIW... The truck still boogies down with the 37's.

looks awesome..makes me anxious to get my 37s on...cant wait to see a side pic and hear more of your thoughts

So depending on the angle you look at the truck, the perception of looking nose high versus totally level changes a bit. I moved the truck up slightly for one of the pics but the truck was parked on level ground for each shot.







I'll grab more pics as I'm out and about and will continue to update the thread.

Man, those 37s look good on it. Any rubbing at that height?

Should be the standard issue tire IMO. No rubbing at all at this height. Offroad may be a different story but I don't suspect it's going to. Will report back regardless.

What offset are your wheels? Trying to decide if I'll have issues with 37s on the stock BL wheels.

They're 0 offset. You'll be even better clearance wise with the oem offset.

Looks good man! Stance is just about right. The C.A.S. is a cool system. It'd be sweet if it came out for the G1's as well. That adjustability is amazing.

Offroad Update:

Spent some time out in Barstow CA putting the truck through its paces yesterday. The added preload is a must if you're going to push your truck through moderate to rough terrain. Even with all the preload we have on my CAS, I still found myself stuffing the skid resulting in dents and gouges. Oops guess it's time to ditch the stock bumper which was planned all along. A better approach angle should help considerably. Even with that, I'll probably dial up the preload a bit more before desert trips in terrain like that again.

Running these sections at a factory ride height would've been ugly. You'd be shoveling the truck out of the dirt hours later in comparable terrain. The added preload didn't pogo like we experienced in the Gen1 when going up perches so overall the shocks are a really nice upgrade.

37's cleared with the exception of a few harsh impacts. It only resulted in rubbing against the front fender liners on a couple occasions. I did however push the truck harder than any reasonable person would so a more conservative approach would clear just fine. Now if you're running a big Toyo 37" and beating the shit out of your truck, you may have problems regardless how much preload you have.

Overall, the system worked great and provided ample ground clearance for race course sections out in one of the harshest deserts we have out west. We got tons of footage from a drone, go pro in the wheel and various video angles through the whoop sections. @svc should be releasing that soon so stay tuned.
