Looks like the shoreline of most California lakes and reservoirs these days. Awesome pictures. I need to make a trip out there one of these days.

I guess there is some. I didn't have the shop take the resonator off initially and the moment I drove it away I knew it had to come off. I didn't notice the exhaust enough, for what I wanted. It has a V8 so I wanted to hear a V8. I don't mind the tone at all. Neither wife nor kids have mentioned it on our road trips. Wifey loves it too actually. To me I don't even know what drone is and why people complain or worry about it. The point of aftermarket exhaust usually is to hear it. You'll hear it the whole time if that is what you mean. Sorry for the mini-rant. I love it and it sounds sweet. No regrets at all.

Yeah pretty sad out there the way it sounds. Be prayin for some rain for you guys. Definitely worth a trip to see it. Really busy when we went, prime time summer tourist season. Recommend during the week, and not in summer.

Sorry, to what are you referring to as used? Muffler? Grand Canyon?
It's used.

Haha got it. I guess, if you to split hairs.
FWIW Just saw in that you picked up some RW wheels in the "what did you......." thread. Don't go the 10mm spacer route. They only give 5-7 threads of engagement on the lug studs which isn't really enough should be 14 for a 14mm lug. 1" spacers are a far better way to go. I bought 10 mm spacers for mine and didn't realize this until I put them on. Immediately took them off and ordered the 1" spacers. I love the look of the wheels on my LC. Nice find.
To run 10 mm spacers you really need to put in longer studs.

Thanks for the input/advice. Sending PM.
Looks like you have the same color as mine. This is what yours will look like with OME 2" lift, Slee step sliders, and 275/70/18 BFG AT/KO's. Enjoy your new beast.

Yeah love the color, got what we wanted. Although we've had it almost a year, but I guess it's still new to us and definitely enjoying it. Poor choice of thread title looking back on it. Yeah I saw your rig when we first started looking and pretty much sold me on the color. I know my wife would go for the lift, sliders might take some convincing. No funds for that stuff yet (especially when my 80 needs some things). Getting the RW wheels is the first step to making it look "tougher" for her. I'm trying to talk her into taking it to CO to do Black Bear Pass, but may end up taking mine.
Hey, when u adjusted Ur torsion bars did it mess with the AHC?

I didn't notice any. It made the ride better IMO as it felt slightly more stiff and tight. Nice to get rid of that slight hood dip. I just had the dealer here do it while I had it in for other things. Hard to explain it exactly so here is a good thread with info...

Put this little cheapy in. Turned out great. Easy to cut, especially in 110 deg garage. Had to finesse the plastic trim pieces in so hopefully they'll hold up. Bent the little plastic tabs on the back of them so they would sort of slip into the slots. Gave it a nice finished look. This is the one I got (saw another member use this one).

Also slowly collecting my TRD pieces to get my Rock Warriors ready. Be a couple of month before I can get the spacers. Probably going to go with Just Differentials 1". Oh yeah and I suppose I'll need tires...even a longer wait.

Start a thread when you get everything installed. I would like to know how it looks and all the parts you had to buy and what they cost? I'm getting tired of my factory chrome wheels.

Will do.
