    Congrats. Or don’t run the front plate cause it takes away a lot of the cosmetic improvements you just paid a fortune for. I haven’t run one in 15yrs Fix it ticks aren’t that bad here in Cali though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Super happy. After I made a second skid for the oil pan haha . I loved the front tube option so I went with mazulla. Install takes a bit but worth it in the end. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Call them. They get busy during the races as they’re always on site at tech with their employees. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Order from Kartek in Cali or SDHQ in Arizona. Shipping runs around $40 I think but I went straight to Kartek Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2.75” wider and approx 1” forward. This thing keeps amazing me on the ride. No joke, better than stock. Yes- fiberworx 2.5” bulge glass fender and paint is next week. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    They do! It’s an option. It just takes away from the cleanliness. They’ve got both pics up to see. SDHQ also makes on too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    This is the Mazulla off road skid plate set up. Replaced the entire lower valance and they offered an optional tube front bar separately that I decided to go with (will have to paint or powder coat) You can get from Kartek or SDHQ or mazulla directly. Big improvement. Couldn’t stand that valance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Baja kits 2.75” wider upper and lower control arms and king shock modification for a better ride. Couldn’t be happier so far Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Finally got my baja kits on after waiting several months. Upper and lower control arms, modified and revalved the king shocks for much better rebound and removed a limiter spacer so the shock uses all of its droop travel. This thing now rides on a cloud! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    King coilover replacements with deaver rear mini pack and removal of the 1” block running 285/70/17 Falkens Second picture is with 315/70/17 BFG’s same lift, with trimming. It rubs, but I have a Baja kits upper and lower kit coming next week to solve that problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Haha ok ok! It requires cutting of the shutters so the brackets can clear. Honestly nothing more than a basic 1/8” aluminum L bracket using existing factory hardware (top left & right bolts) that hold the shutter system in place. Bent the brackets to length, shaved outer plastic frame of shutter system to fit the brackets. Be 100% the louvers will clear the light bar or a CEL will come on. I paid a buddy to do this- it wasn’t pretty doing it, but the end result was worth it. Will try for close up pics later.

    30” light bar installed WITH the active shutters. Boom...

    I went back n forth on the SDHQ but hated the look of the tow hooks coming through a clean skid plate. And mazulla had the (overpriced IMO) bumper tube... Advantage with SDHQ’s is they include a lower oil pan skid, however they told me there is no cut out to drop the oil ?. Decision was made- do the mazulla/bumper and make my own oil pan skid. Then, don’t get stuck!!

    Just finished up the install of my mazulla off road skid plate and bumper tube. Got rid of the ugly lower valance and gained some ground clearance up front. Very happy with the finished result.

    Good to know. Seems like when I drive it hard, it gets more aggressive and smoother. Still tough to break tires loose from a stop without brake standing. Others say it'll burn em up no prob but I drive fairly conservatively on a daily basis. What did you fill your trans with after the flush?

    17' 6.2L/8sp 7800 miles It hasn't gotten any better but I wouldn't give up my 8 speed. 18MPG towing a 24' boat is unheard of in any other vehicle I've owned. Clunks and surges but at speed it's great. Curious how it'll do in the sand dunes off road. I'm convinced once everyone cracks the codes to tune these things we should see an improvement.
