E, where are you storing all of your recovery gear? Did you re-do your tire rack?

Thanks, but for that I would need to get some gun racks/ mounts! oh and a zombie, dead car push bar out front. Oh and while I am at it, I always liked the Mach 5 launch skids...yeah, now were talking.

I haven't yet, Truck is still at RPG getting new goodies installed. between the reinforced Bak-box and the Tuffy under seat unit, I should be able to store everything. May need to lose some towels and beach blanket, and if needed Bug out backpack could be shoved underneath the Bak-Box. Place to store stuff is the only reason I have not gone for the Hi-Lift or a full sized chain saw.

I did see a little 12" huskavarna gas chain saw in AZ last week, but it was $300!

Yep Husky's & Stihl chainsaws are worth it. I had my Stihl over 10 years now and it runs like champ, and I abuse the hell out of it.

Thank you, but that one was only temporary while the Raceline series is being finished. The frame horns are getting cut and New bumper fabbed while I type.

Sliders are done and getting Powder coated. Hoping Jarrett will put up some progress pics!

... while I type.

I assume that mean no camping and trail clearing this weekend? Probably for the best. I could use a weekend of no plans.

RPG Raceline Front Bumper

Got the truck back from RPG on Friday, and have not yet even had the chance to take her out. Soccer games to attend on Saturday, Did manage to snap a few pics though. First to show is the new Raceline bumper from RPG.


This one is a little different from the Pre-Runner Style as it requires the removal of the Frame horns. This allows for a greater approach angle



Here you can see the greatest difference

Very nice looking are you going to move the shock reservoirs? They look a little exposed.
