Well, it’s been just a bit of time since my last update hasn’t it? First, happy new year, second don’t worry. Work, a lot of it, in fact, has been going on while I’ve been away from the computer. First thing’s first, as you may have seen on Instagram the truck is back from paint….
Hubris is defined as excessive self-pride or self-confidence and I while I’m not sure about the excessive self-pride, I certainly had a lot of confidence heading into this project. Confidence isn’t necessarily a bad thing, and mine isn’t gone, but, the “Yeah I’ve got this, no big deal” mind-set I had certainly needed to be checked….

So, selecting what to run for each came fairly easy. But a functioning vehicle is so much more than the big-ticket items. With all of my previous…
The fact that I am going to be running Air Lift Performance components on Project Why Wait shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. The large banner behind my work bench was a bit of foreshadowing, and an easy indication of where my air ride loyalty lies. I’ve had Air Lift Performance struts, and Autopilot v2 management supporting my…
