[QUOTE="Raptizzle, post: 1111811, member: 54"] 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. [MENTION=2870]svc[/MENTION] should be releasing that soon so stay tuned.
