Well, after wheeling AOP saturday I got some fender damage..its not awful..but it is damage nonetheless. Im going to pull the fender this next weekend and try and smooth it out.
Lucky it wasnt a door or something more difficult to replace..but still sucks.
Aside from that..the cavfab 3 link and cavfab steering did extremely well, steering drug across a couple rocks with no issues..
I got the jeep on the dirt track also, 40-60mph through some small whoops and the Fox shocks keep it stable and smooth on compression, very happy with the suspension.

No video of the whoops.
No one else in my group drove to the dirt track and the wife was ready to head home so she didn't want to get out and let me cover her in dust.

Bring this up to speed.
One picture from AOP

Fender smash action


My OCD kicked in fast..bought a patriot blue fender that's an exact match:


Decided to hack the small rust hole out from the passenger quarter. This was the only rust on the whole jeep..gone now



Still need to finish the sealing and smoothing it out. Stupid dewalt wheels exploded
