I bought it haha. 07 FJ Cruiser new 265/70/17 Goodyear AT Adventure with Kevlar (Good enough for being part of the deal) one day I'll have the KO2s. And I also installed my first mod on the back [emoji16]

Picked up Sumo track rod and ball joints and dampener relocation kit (to match my previously installed drag link ;-), oh, and a set of brake pads, from RoverWare.US a bit ago... Got under and around the truck this past weekend to get them installed and dialed in. Zero wobble on the CA potholes anymore - runs solid and stops well too.

Pathfinder I
Replaced timing belt and water pump!
Moved this one outside. Going to be asking for advice here pretty soon. 
That sounds like an interesting trip! How's the trail? Technical? Easy? Moderate?
Took it, my daughter her best friend and her dad to Signal Peak
Is that a ABS plastic sheet cut to fit MOLE packs? Man why didn't I think of that before?

Yes it is. I looked all over the Internet to find something similar and all I found was cordura molle style or seat cover styles. So necessity became invention I guess lol
Looks good, Sir. Also like the lights, I was debating between those and the Rigid Q2s. The combo pattern, slight smaller foot print, and the price I paid made the Q2 lights win, but everytime I see those I keep questioning my decision....
OTG 2.0 prep for convoying
Thanks UT.
ARB designed these, and Rigid makes them for ARB.
I will have to check out the ones you have too, as I have not checked out any of Rigids line.
These were very expensive, but every time I push the power button for them, I am glad I got them.
I have a few very dark roads on my way into work, and when I fire these u, it is like daytime on the ground.
When I turn them off, it is like I can hardly see my headlamps.

Road out to bankhead Forest, found some waterfalls
Yup, the Q2 are just the middle LEDs and they are square housings. I like that they came in a combo pattern with 8 spot and 12 flood LEDs. I paid just over $400 each for the Q2's. Lumens are comparable (7500 vs 9300). Its just the mix of both LED types in the same housing that sold me on them. I was half tempted to do 1 spot and 1 flood on the ARB, but went this route. Im still the only Nissan I have ever seen them on. I find I use the bumper lights more than the light bar. But when both are on, its stupid the amount of light that comes off the front of the truck.
Left the rig at home yesterday and instead took my Yamaha XT250 for a day trip on a trail near Helen, Ga. Along with me came my friends in a stock Jeep and a Frontier Pro4x. We had a blast and even though the trail was easy there was a few technical spots where I spotted the my friends in their trucks; where they both got up on two wheels. Overall a great Sunday Funday! 
Had to park the rig in the garage for an extended period. Airbag recall makes the passenger seat unusuable. Dealer gave me a rental to haul the kids, but I am not allow to drive my favorite car. Sucks. 
Hope to use the time for some mods. Mount and hook up the radio(s), maybe a roof rack?
