Nice rig! Do you have any pics of the Rek Gen flaps? I am interested in how those look on a TRX. Thanks!

Thanks so much. Here is a bunch of random photos to give you an idea but I didn’t take photos after doing that mod specifically. I should have. The fronts did not last my first trip out and I had to remove and trash them. Rears are pretty bent but still look ok.

Wow! Thanks. I have a set ready and they look to be able to take a bullet. I guess basically any flap would not last with the type of off-roading you partake in. 
I take it no rubbing with your 37s. I am not sure if I am going 37 or sticking with 35s.
Do you think the steps do a good job of shielding the fenders, etc.? It would appear they do, what is your opinion. I assume those are the factory steps. Thanks!

No rubbing on the road. They definitely will rub in the dirt if you drive too fast through the bumps. On a flat dirt road, you can cruise at 70 like it’s nothing. The factory steps I have are great. They have been collecting various colors of vehicle paint from the parking lots I frequent. Likely from people smacking their car doors into them. Also when I was in the dirt, my angle wasn’t ideal and I planted the truck fully on the drivers side step and was basically a teeter-totter. Reversed out, adjusted approach and all was fine. Truck and steps still going strong.

Nice! Thanks for the information!
Looks like you have a lot of fun.
Yeah. I hate people sometimes...no respect for other people's property.

I think it’s from the various gyms I go to. Either someone is so hyped up they forget or when leaving too exhausted. Also these trucks are huge so I could be nicer and park away from everyone but I am not worried about a door ding or two. If it happens it happens.
Super cool! Ed At Evil makes cool stuff. Im curious about running the camera.... did you make one heck of an extension and run it from behind the radio, or did you extend the harness from the original rear tail light and plug the hole some how and run the camera into the evil light housing?
This has been a question of mine for how im going to run a capper or a rack

Thats a great question @Fifty
Doug Parks at Evil Manufacturing did everything for me and would know what went into making this. I just paid him for his parts, time, and labor.
You can reach Doug @ (562) 774-3845

Almost. He went with the Condor XL and I have the Falcon XL
. Also I do not think they have a cargoglide in the rear. His build was certainly inspiration for me.

Looks amazing! I'm working on an overland build as well and you've given me some great ideas - thanks!
Your rear appears to have a noticeable sag. Any plans to address? I've noticed a sag as well when my bed is filled with camping gear. Any concerns or solutions?

Looks cool - but curious, how high off the ground is the stove?

high enough where me, at 5/10, requires a step stool in order to use it. oh well. nothing in life is perfect.

no plans as of today. the truck did great 300 miles in death valley national park across all types of terrain, as configured. i am considering a spacer / leveling kit but i really dont want to mess with the factory suspension. since this truck and all the aftermarket options are so new, i figure i'd let everyone try theirs and report any issues over the long haul. i doubt there are any TRXs with the leveling kit that have say, 40k miles at this juncture.
