Welp, canceled my sso bumper. After they missed their ship date, I called to get a status update and they were complete assholes and didnt have any answers or a real eta. Back to the drawing board. What is with these damn companies. No accountability

Sorry to hear that. It's definitely been a frustrating wait. But I've been tracking mine through their website and online chat. I get the occasional vague answer but they've been nice. They told me yesterday that the new release date for stage 2 kit is the end of May since the prototyping ran into delays. Plus they were out for Jambo for a week. My bumper is supposed to ship by end of next week. Hopefully they still come through.

I'd vote the CBI T3! I'm bias though, it was my first choice before the SSO stage 2 was announced.

If you go with the T3 - check out Aventuron's website. they have free shipping on everything over $100. I confirmed previously that this offer is valid for the bumper. They are a CBI dealer. That could save a good chunk of change.

So, the owners of SSO got involved and Jordon from Battle Born has been working hard with them to square things away. Looks like SSO is targeting to have the bumper here by Tuesday or Wednesday however still unsure about if or when the high clearance kit will be here.

Cant speak highly enough of @Battle Born Offroad and their willingness to dig in their heels and get things fixed. Jordon has certainly gone beyond the extra mile. Truly, if you guys need parts, give him a call and he'll get you taken care of

Wow, that's pretty bad ass! What were their lead times like?

Between 10-12 weeks. But they may have cut those times down, i was first buyer on the baja hoop style and it was just coming out of prototype stage.

Some fresh shoes for Velco Molle Fest West. If you're coming, swing by the Fuel booth to hang out with Cory and I, we'll teach you how to beg vendors for free shit and Cory will be designing custom logos on the spot.

Overland west pre party already started!
 
Just checked tracking and my front bumper is set to be delivered by the end of the day! So tomorrow I'll be getting that bitch on just in time for expo. I'm told that the high clearance kit is in there too, so I'm pretty pumped to get it installed.

Truck has changed quite a bit with just a few things and I'm pretty damn happy with it. Also, my new @Baja Designs rock lights showed up yesterday. So I will be replacing my "old" bd rock lights with 8 of their all new, brighter rock lights. I've got a brand new 20" S8 all ready to go in the new front bumper as well.

I am pretty pumped about it too! Ever since I saw the prototype, I knew it was the perfect bumper for my truck. All about keeping things clean and functional.

Right on! Make sure to swing by the Fuel booth and hang out. There will be beer, velcro, Bernie fatheads and all the Danner boots.

We are also doing a bbq at the house we rented on Saturday night, so if you can, come on by.

Sweet thanks for the invite! We'll definitely come by the booth! Hopefully you guys can help me out, I need a new tactical codpiece for overcamping.
Unfortunately we gotta head home Saturday afternoon this year but at least we should get a couple quiet days of camping at east pocket before it kicks off.
 
Oh and this thing kinda fell in my lap today. Been looking at a daily driver and settled on two models of grand cherokee, the limited x or trailhawk. While ultimately I wanted an SRT but didnt want to spend 80k on something that was gonna rack up the miles. So, I had ruled that one out. Well, last night my buddy took in a clean 2018 1 owner SRT in white on trade and is offering it to me at a stupid good deal. Looks like I'll have some horsepower under my foot soon.
