    Got my front suspension on this weekend. Pretty stoked to have these 8112’s and Camburg upper control arms on. Already a big difference compared to my stock control arms and struts with ready lift spacers.

    I also picked up a wittle wadded this weekend for $200. It’s a BajaRack ladder. Pretty impressed how sturdy it is! Now I have a place for my Trasharoo! Lol

    I would recommend if you plan on using that ladder to invest in pain protection film behind the first couple steps. I use mine quite often and it can start to scratch the paint. Also if you have kids and a roof rack they will help themselves to the top of your car.

    I installed the Weathertec version. I like that it is flat. Thinking of wrapping the entire hood at which time I will remove it.

    Today finally go my CB in, Rago center console mole panels, 4’ firestick, and the rear Rago antenna mount. Really fun day working on this with my brother and dad while they worked on their Jeeps.

    Very nice! How do they ride?

    Did you also put 8100's in the back?

    How's the ease of adjustability?

    60 bucks isnt the worst price…

    Also, we cant overlook the “collectors edition” metal oil can for the money.

    Installed this netting to keep things from falling off the top, middle, and bottom shelves when the door is opened. In memory of Mom and Pop, both green thumbs, going to bring this live plant when Overlanding and put it on the hood at camp. Not sure it will survive but worth the try.

    Outside mount, low pro smoke. Here is my AVS. Last picture is looking from the inside out with the sun shining through them to see the smoke color. Otherwise they mostly look black.

    Does the lo pro help with wind deflection? That noise when you’re driving 50, and have 1 window down?

    I don’t get that horrible sound when I have 1 window down and all others rolled up. However, to note I believe that problem mainly happens when the windows are rolled down a lot. Not just a little crack.

    You bought the low profile, right? The low profile is an outside mount (double sided tape). The outside mount you saw is not the low profile. Just want to make sure you ordered low profile.

    Mine are outside mount. Smoke finish, AVS #94242. Only $39.51 as well. Grand total $ 42.18 with tax.
    Nice close fit too. I can't imagine any lower profile. Go for that number and you'll be good to go.
    Oh, don't be fooled. There is another brand that uses that same number but theirs has two letters before the 94242.

    I’m going to put it behind dash. Picked up a 3’ ethernet extension that I’m gonna flush mount in one of the knock outs in the dash. That’s the main reason I went with the 275, for a low profile setup where I don’t need to access the box

    Mine did not say low profile, just outside mount. I cannot imagine them being significantly less convex, or they would not have any function.

    Gmrs in. All but the extension cable to flush mount in factory knock out. Tied power into the cb power that I had ran to glove box. Running through my direct wired switch panel so I can run vehicle on or off. Mounted to an existing bracket next to steering column. Antenna on gobi rack, may upgrade it down the road. And sadly this is the only use I’ve had out of my jackery in to long
