Build up of Mountain Goat

I had to grind down the corner of of my coil plate to get it to clear the TB frame mount. After you grind it down it should clear.

How much bump stop were you running?

Not enough. Shot stock one’s plus a 2” extension that came with the lift. I’ve ordered adjustable lowers and the new upper has arrived.

Took MtnGoat to Gardner Canyon with the kids.

Good news, FINALLY GOT THE BRAKES FIXED!!

Took it Trail Boss Off Road who did an ABS auto bleed 3 times, pressure bled it twice, manually bled it once then bled it with the car running as well. Now it stops, and super quick.

That’s great, those big brakes on the one tons make a big difference.

Great to see it out on the trail!

Is that a long arm kit?

It will be. It’s the 3 link kit from Barnes 4wd. Or
At least the offset enduro joints and crossmember. They’re currently out of the left hand threaded joints and Ballistic Fab is 45 mins up the road from me. So, it’ll be a hodge podge of parts but should still work well.

Threw on some Bilstein 5160s for a long arm kit in the front. Not sure what the actual difference is between their short arm to long arm 5160s as the lengths are the same. Maybe valving? Either way, the ride is much improved over the previous shocks.
