Finally got a chance to install the bypasses.
coilovers were de-vavled and now the bypasses are the dampening shock. Essentially the coilover is just the spring and shock.
Coilovers are back from valve and rebuild, which was much needed. Now i just need to spend a weekend offroad to dial in the bypass tubes.
Got approached by a company to help them market and in exchange they hooked me up with a tent.
had solar on top of rack, sold those panels as they were thick and purchased slim flexible 100w panel to stick to roof. I have a vinyl wrap delivering today for the roof as its bare aluminum and wanted to add a little somethin' somethin' to it when its up camping. Then ill throw the solar on top once that cures. Wont even be able to see the panel now.
Wrapped the hood, the old wrap was degrading terribly bad. Got this for free so figured i'd give it a go. Was my first wrapping experience and it was difficult but i learned a lot by the end.
Painted the grille black after this.
thankfully the scoop removed so i just went over it and then cut it out. But it was far more challenging than i originally anticipated. I could definitely do it better the next time. But this is fine for now.
its metallic/matte camo pattern
went out for a weekend to enjoy the first snow of the season.
tent did great. Solar was good for the drive up and around until the storm blew in. Battery still charged at 3.v during the overcast day. Fridge kept my mountains blue and bettery fired up with 13.7v
0 degree bag and properly layered as well as a mr buddy heater to take the chill off. Once the tents to temp it holds decent. I've camped as low as 16 degrees with just my 0 degree bag.
