Wow that looks amazing. One issue, are those tubes on the end open? Worried about mud and water being trapped inside over time?

no, TNT provides caps that pop in there.

I love how high and tucked up it sits especially the tubes angled up around the corners.

agreed, that was a seller for me. I actually had to move my flares yup higher than I had them to accommodate the tubes

Cav-Fab's Transfer Case Skid ordered. early release promo plus Christmas %15 off. We'll see how she fits!

i need a special size Bit for the dirt-bound sliders, i believe it was a size K ? I'm hoping i got a drill bit kit for Christmas that i requested, so ill start with painting those sliders this week and may be get to install them by the weekend. I also need some tube clamp pod light mounts so i can get some lights on the TNT bumper. Going with a pair of Amber Rigids and a pair of White Rigid Spots.

yep its released. Im guessing they jumped in to the JK/JL craze head first as that's where the money is right now and ended up in the deep end without testing the waters,

They've been focusing more on fb and online sales rather than forums like this. But they are still around here from time to time.

Figured i would take a little bit of time from a hectic work day and update. Got out and played this weekend in the snow on some private property. climbing ravines and such on a home made off road race track. Think kindof like KOH type course. No pictures as is was night time and i was busy driving. But there was 2 stockish cherokees with just a little lift and 30" tires. I ended up playing recovery and winching them up hills and out of drifts. the tru trac and spartan performed flawlessly. ran through some pretty deep snow and some easily 35 degree hills. the dick cepeks did great. Was also able to mount a set of Rigid SR-Q2 Amber Pods to help with snow storm driving. We are supposed to get a blizzard this evening, so tomorrow mornings work commute may be fun. Still waiting on the cav-fab t-case skid.

Spectre makes an adapter, that bolts to the Renix tb, for usage of ChryCo (HO) style intakes.
