Send off video from this morning!!!!
We got in fairly late last night, I got home at 9:30. The owner washed the Cruiser early this morning and was at the shop at 8am.
We checked over the entire Cruiser, greased the drivelines, changed the oil and filter and installed one last tie down to the top of the Decked inside the SmartCap.
You will hear us mention suspension in the last video above. We have/had air bags in hand but after this weekend the owner didn’t think he needed them. It’s was pretty loaded and heavy on the 4wd trip and is in the last video above but it really isn’t sagged much if at all. Air bags could easily be added in the future.
The owner headed for SLC this morning to pick up his brother who is-was flying in there. Then together they are headed for souther Utah and some touring! I think they plan to explore Utah, New Mexico and Arizona before heading for home!
Really, no more awesome way to end a build for us!! HUGE gratitude to the owner for being up for the 4wd trip and the awesome drive home across the country!!
There may be a bit more content from me but for the most part, that’s a done deal!!!

Don’t need it off-road, the Cruiser and the FTE is hardly even in boost off-road if at all.
