Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

Finally replaced my busted taillight (Mounts broke when the bumper flexed up into it). Somehow the gorilla tape survived 4 weeks of Sleet, Slush, Rain & Snow. Glad I had packed it for my LBL trip.

That bumper is the benchmark for all bumpers in my opinion. Just simply bad ass.

Agreed, I just don't want the weight on my front end like that. But Looks great on that Xterra!

I can handle the weight, just not the price tag...ahahahahahaha. I just ordered a Westin HDX without the bumper part and will make my own. Took 3 months to make that decision. I just could not justify a $300 1.25" die for a tube bender just to fold up 2 tubes around the headlight. So I bought the hard part. LOL

I totally get it haha. I myself am about to order a Southern Style Offroad tube bumper, no protection cage above the Grille, but only adds ~60-70lbs. I don't believe I'll get the light bar cutout, I'm more of a fan of the Light Pod/Bulb housing look.

All the essentials lol

Nice pics. I have passed on buying (another) tube bender. I'm 65 and don't have many bends left in my life...lmao. I like that Southern style. Simple, effective and cool. I could bend 2 of those up a day and make some money but that's a lot of work and I'm ready to see more country.
Can't wait to get back to work. This cold is rough. Mocked up a radio console today. Final will be Wed. Got some doctor stuff tomorrow. Take care, be safe

Do you have some tracks or good locations out that way? We did a small drive up there and hit the usual spots and ended up on a FSR off of Maple Grove Church Road but would love some more places up that way for an overnight or 3.

Don't have any tracks yet, but this Lat, Lon, 36.00053, -81.87585 is the beginning of a 9+ mile FSR. At the end make a left. Go about 1500 ft on blacktop, make a left on FSR Roseburg Edgemont. Goes another 5 miles.
Some of the spur roads off of these are closed till April 15.
There are several campsites along both roads.
Near the end of the Roseburg trail, just before the bridge is a dirt road to the right. Roseburg Gragg, 4 miles, very narrow with a lot of obstacles. Nothing a mild lift and good tires can't handle.
That drops you out near 221 crossnore area.
Hope that gives you a good start.

Unplugged the cable under the steering wheel on my 5th Gen 4RNR. No more door chimes! This cannot be done through Carista.
