What I did today is replaced that tension bar from tailgate.It was working fine but I didn't like the rusty look also did the +5hp upgrade.

It makes the tailgate feel "lighter"

Got the tray for the center console/cooler. This should have come from the factory. It is such a simple add-on that improves the user xperience so much.

Added a simple but very convenient tray for the center console/cooler

I bought one just before the LCDC. Great upgrade for sure. It’s drasticslly increased our spend on tic tacs and Altoids though as I no longer have the “sorry kids they’re buried somewhere in the center console” excuse

Wait is isn't normal to get a new truck delivered on a flat bed and then go lead Metal Masher in Moab with it 8 days later? I will miss the looks I got on the trail when people saw the temp tags, but it feels (strangely) good to have some level of commitment now...and trust me when I say the bill at the DMV was certainly a commitment This is my third and best 200 to date, and I'm looking forward to exploring with it a lot more!

Bought all of the stuff I wanted for the build up front. BFGs, Tough Dog lift, TJM front, Slee sliders, and ARB rear. The seat covers are still in the mail. I am excited to get it how I want it and drive it!

Apologies for the dumb question in advance, but how are you able to fit 295 on it? I have been contemplating same size size tires on my LC since putting 35s on will take more work than I would like to do.

I am aware but I thought when you exceed 285 width you are likely to rub also.

I do not see any rubbing.Didn't do any real off road yet.

Ya, 295/70/17 is around 11.5” or so.

I do think you may need to remove mud flaps in front. KDSS should be ok.
