Goofy!


POS Magellan - I guess it's not a POS, I was just disappointed that no upgraded TOPO maps were ever offered after they said they would offer them.

Very nice! How do u like that ARB?

[hattrik21]

I like it. It does stick out a little far compared to others, but I know its airbag compatible so that was an important factor in going this route versus some of the others. If you won't mind cutting the plastic bumper to act as a filler, its a good option IMHO.

clean and purposeful, very nice.

yeah yeah yeah

[mayoibushi]

great rig! you are going to lower it with the ome setup? why OME rear suspension and Radflo front?

[hattrik21]

I might lose half and inch but I'll end up with a better ride and that's what is most important to me. The rear leafs in the OME setup were designed to support the back end, even with extra gear weight in it and from what I've heard its a great setup.

[mayoibushi]

yea Im getting them instead of shackles myself. but pairing them with rear radflos. I plan on the OME xtra leaf for my pack to give me 2.5" and help with the rear bumper.

Timbrens might be a good investment as well since our stock bumpstops are hard and dont squish.
