    Right well I wanted to go camping this weekend but the missus won't go and I want the first trip to be us together. But I went to a spot and did a bit of bush bashing and tested it out. I'm blown away at how capable the new truck is. Took some pics and got some vids. Check them out

    Lay on the ground at your B pillar and shoot a video of the underside of the car from the front wheel to the back wheel.

    The sway bar will be about 22mm thick bar bolted under the Radius Arms running across the car and the linkages up to the chassis rails on both sides. The rear is bolted to the front of the rear diff under the drive shafts and linkages both ends to the chassis
