In case anyone stores their rig outside and is interested in a large enough cover for their built rig, this one happens to fit mine well. It obviously should since it’s made for a Caddy Escalade ESV. I have a 37 spare hanging off the back and the Delta full frontal front end. Fits well. I have it on inside my garage because of these little kitties we got to control rodents, love to fart and füćk about on my hoods. I don’t need their scratches in my life right now.

That’s for another thread though
 
Got the ladder and couple accessories on. My rear end is looking heavy, but isn’t sagging yet.

@Delta VS gear is on another level. Their burner table and extension. I have to grab a burner that works with this.

Me likely.
 
So much! Love seeing all the progress over the years. It looks really nice, but it also looks like its time for you to put some pin striping on it. Can't wait to see more rock stacking.
 
I’ve wondered how much DVS bumpers weigh. 3/16 material for the main portions? If so they shouldn’t be that heavy. Have you weighed them?

They add up - Seem to remember I was about 400lb with 2 swing outs and a high lift carrier.
 
The front was 300+ with the winch.

I think I remember the rear bumper container stating something over 200 but less than 300lbs.

The rear is similar to my 4x4Labs which is 1/4” plate. DVS makes impressive products.

What a monstrosity. Ordered. I usually have to fight my wife for the spot away from the trees once fall hits. Not today.

Anyone else thinking of LEDs? This dude seems to have his stuff in a single sock:

Yes, @Bludozer this is my shameful plug to get my 15% discount. I’m really gonna be able to splurge now. :flipoff2:

No, his merch looks good and has decent reviews from my limited research.




















And I really want that damn discount! :flipoff2:

i did LED's via Amazon. 5000K color temp was the most readily available so went w/ that, even though I'm partial to 2700K. Replaced all the interior lights and since I had extras, threw some in the license plate locations as well. Soooo much brigther in the cabin.

I have 5000K LED's in my daily driver and while I find it a little harsh at times, I've gotten used to it. In work areas like my garage I installed 5000K LED tubes.

That guy doesn't list any prices?

I’m looking forward for a little more light, but I don’t want it looking like an operating room.

I don’t know why but, you’re right, he doesn’t list prices. He PMs them to you. I bought two dome lights and a map light for just under $45 before the discount. He has more kits and lights for everything else, but I want to start with just those.
 
Took the cruiser out finally. I only have 300 miles since the new short block and top end rebuild. It’ll be a year since the head gasket blew on 31 Oct. I need to put more miles on her. She’s at 210k now!

Still have to put the sliders on, but my house has been keeping me busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest.

Felt good driving a machine that doesn’t ****ing beep and boop and vibrate if it senses me driving “spiritedly.” Side note; my girls like being taller than everything out there.
