looking amazing, super square and even side to side, swell work.


stoked to watch it progress.

Also the rear bumper looks like a factory job wit the seams all done up nice like that.

Thanks Marco! I'm really pleased with the way it's turning out. Hoping to get this and the swingout done this coming week.

Got the cutouts for the venting, running lights and winch. Now time to remove, finish welding supports, light buckets and seams. Need to come north to pick up some DOM tubing for front hoop and sliders.

Does this thing have the adjustable hight control? It's looking great! Also curious if having the bumpers so close to the body will cause rubbing while the frame flexes.

No, I removed all the stock suspension when I installed the lift. I have the Metaltech bumpers on my other GX and although the clearances on this one are a bit tighter I don't think it will be a problem. We'll see 🙂.. the good thing, if it is an issue, I can change it..
