A buddy of mine and I installed the receiver hitch and trailer harness last night. Man I tell you what...the guys at Slee Off Road have their $hit dialed in! That receiver set-up fits very very well!!!! Some trimming required at the cross member, and you have to remove the spare tire carrier plate, but then everything bolts right in!

still to come: radio equipment, larger HD off-road tires, lockers, 4.88s, full length roof cage, off-road lighting, full compliment of recovery gear...then of course our typical set of "oh $hit" supplies for missions.
 
we got the SAR-mobile driveable and then she got put into use towing our river boats around this summer. NOW to get the last of the goodies put on and ready for the Fall and Hunting season (our busiest time of year). ARB locker, 4.88s, roof rack, RotoPax set, full recovery set, dual solenoid compressor, X-jack, and 5 new solid black rims to fit these little guys all ready to installation. Another huge thanks for Big Horn Toyota in Glenwood Springs and Slee Off-Road for their continued support on this project:

Looks good! Can't wait to see the final product.
 
ya, I'm pretty excited to see it also. With all of this rain that we've been getting and hunting season opening on a long holiday weekend my gut tells me that we'll be busy right off the bat....
 
almost done.... I still have to figure out a time to get over to Slee Off-Road in Golden to pick up our roof cage, Rotopax set, and recovery kit.

Dang! That's a beast.
 
the tires still look a little small in those lifted wheel wells...perhaps we should have gone to 38s...:doh:



just kidding of course. Ya, it looks pretty beastly. I'm excited to see it perform once the weather goes south.
