I had my friends at Expedition Ops lift my KJ CRD while I was doing some business traveling... OME springs/shocks all around and I didn't even have to get dirty!

Little stuff like swapping out springs isn't really their normal gig but they'll definitely set you up right anyway. Jeremy, the shop owner, does a hell of a job with custom fab for expedition/overland driving (bumpers, racks, storage, etc). If you're in the Midwest and need some work done or need some gear, I highly recommend them. (And no I do not work for them in any way... just a happy customer!)

Looks great!

Have you regeared yet and are you running wheel spacers?

Looks good. I actually like it with no bumper.

Thanks all!

The LX450 is the shop owner's. It's pretty badass... pretty much every overlanding bell and whistle you can imagine, including hot and cold running water! :shock: I am running wheel spacers... Spdertrax 1.25" but no re-gear yet. I also need to pound my pinch weld on the drivers side just a tiny bit more.

Sorry for the late reply. I've been camping up in Superior National Forest:

More pics to follow in the next few days...

A few reasons but mainly because my apartment parking garage has very low clearance and I can't really get an antenna above my roof line. The location gives me good performance in spite of the limitation.

Pic unrelated. Testing the OME suspension travel...
