hellopuppie's 2018 Grey Guthe Trail Limo TRD Off-Road DCLB 4x4 Build and BS

Saw these a couple weeks ago and had to have them. Great quality product made by @OneMoreToyota over on TW and I love that they match the other knobs on the dash.

After almost a year, I started the first stage of my "BSM in the taillight" project! I busted them open.

It’s going to be tricky to find a spot for the sensors.

I’m crossing my fingers for a successful outcome. Keep us posted.

I'll have to reinforce the mounting tabs somehow but I think I have enough room for the sensors. I need to buy a 3D printer! ?

I want one of those too but I'd just use it to make stupid shit like nerf guns and plastic dicks....

Shoot if all works well.. you're giving me another reason to buy a 3D printer. lol

Looking forward to your progress.
 
Soooo, we had quite an eventful Sunday a few days ago out at Crown King.

Here we see my truck, high-centered. It doesn't really look like it but that bitch is stuck. Had to get winched off this fucking rock.

Here's the shock I busted. It took a couple days to track down the gnarly clunking over every little bump.

Here's what's left of a rzr on the trail that somebody just left to burn the fucking forest down.

Here we are preventing said forest fire.

Props to @JerryTaco2.0, @ShankedT4R, @Battle Born Offroad and many others for helping extinguish this thing before it got out of control.

Edit: @Lord Humongous, do you know where I can get my fire extinguisher recharged?

Holy shit. Major kudos on that fire control.

I’m surprised your shock broke like that. Do you think you know what caused it?

Nice work with the forest fire! Probably stolen or somebody that didn't want to pay their sweet %90 interest rate anymore. Is your extinguisher CO2 or dry Chem? I honestly keep the single use ones on hand for ease of replacment. I'll ask the Marshal where to go today.

Have you talked to icon about this yet? One of my rears looks to be doing the same thing. Very annoying they've only been on the truck for a month.

Thanks man! A lot of people deserve credit for the fire control.

I think it may have happened when I was trying to get un-high-centered before I was winched off.

Sweet, thanks man! It's dry chem. I might grab a couple of single use ones after this. I never expected to need it but it's good that we had a few. You're probably right about the assholes that left it there. We heard that the sheriff picked them up at the end of the trail but can't be sure.

I took it down to @SDHQ OFFROAD this morning and they hooked it up under warranty. It's hard to beat the service and support at @SDHQ OFFROAD.

That's awesome! Hopefully I have the same experience with mine. Purchased through a different vendor, we'll see ?
By the way, that's a very nice rig you've got there.

I hope you do have the same experience. Who did you purchase through and how long ago? Oh, and thanks man!
