So yesterday I ordered A-Pillar light brackets from Detours...and today helping out a friend by bringing his 4 mounted 35's and 4 extra rims to a tire shop to get swapped my caliper decided it was going to lock up so after we dropped them off bought new calipers and pads and rotors (pads and rotors on warranty) and replaced it all...brought the stuff back for warranty refunds and core charge refunds and the parts person screwed up did a full return so i got everything for free....yay and going to be ordering a front bumper this week maybe...also ordered the GoFerIt drivers tie rod flip insert...

Unbeknownst to me my a-pillar brackets arrived yesterday so opened them today could not install due to wheeling trip but did put the sticker on:

then onto wheeling it performed great for my second trip with her had a very scary moment where a strap had to be put on my front bumper so i could get actual traction to go forward cause if i went back i would flip...
Flexing...




Being guided up a nice obstacle doesn't look as difficult from up here...
