Dude's 2017 Build Thread!

[dude1782]

Stage 2 pics are up on the first page. The bed rack is getting some revisions on Monday. Bump stops and some other things are getting moved to stage 3 due to time constraints etc. Night shots coming later today along with some stock comparisons and rigid vs bd comparison.

I've heard some good/bad about the eibach springs. So far they're stiffer but not bad at all. I'll try to take it out this weekend but I don't want to go too hard without all my recovery gear.

Edit: Also no more rubbing at full lock or light flexing. SDHQ posted a video on their Facebook/instagram with my bed rack in it.

any more pics of the chase rack? I like that design the best so far...now if only someone would integrate maxtrax mounts into a chase rack it would be perfect.

I'm picking it up Monday and I'll grab some more shots.

Updated op with night shots of all my lights. Actual pics of them doing work and XL80s vs Dually XLs and OnX6 High Power vs OnX6 coming Saturday. The OnX6 High Power is wired to 2 switches so the outside and inside can be turned on independently. The whip is wired to come on with the parking lights. Might switch the rear lenses to amber.

What whip is that? I like how it matches the running lights...clean looking.

BTW, if you are looking for shovel..I saw these aluminum ones which are pretty cool.

Also looking forward to your review of the Eibachs and Stage 3 deavers.

It's a quick light. It's wired to come on with the parking lights. I'll check out those shovels. The site isn't very mobile friendly.

Looks great SDHQ does some good work.

Added pics of my bed rack and some pics from the trail on the first page. I remembered my camera but forgot the SD card so they're all mediocre phone pics but there are some nice shots.

I actually didn't think the eibach springs were that bad. I wasn't running super hard but I think I can live with them for a little while.

The deavers were definitely awesome and improved the rear a ton.

I also love my Baja designs lights. I'll never run another brand ever again.
