I really like this build(built not bought's)! Glad you got your regulator figured out, and guided me through the process in the right direction. Thanks

I think you have that backwards... renix alt.s are internally regulated, HO & the ZJ are regulated in the ecm. Thus my issue!
People said it couldn't be done, but with the right skills, tools, & will power ANYTHING is possible!

Moab rim was a blast, its one of my new favorite trails for sure! Aside from offcamber obstical after obstical, it's BEAUTIFUL up there!
Metal masher's in the books. Rockchucker was surprisingly sticky, but way taller than the youtube vids make it look!
Cliffhanger was hardcore! After taking a buddies tire out on this obstical we came out in the dark. My baby slept from the time the sun went down till we got back to camp! (thank god, cause it was knar in the dark) haha
Kissed my quarter panel a little bit... I LOVED THIS!!! nothing like the feeling of your first good crunch
Moab is by far the greatest place on earth in our sport!
