I've got everything. I don't think a screw driver constitutes as all the tools needed for a lift. Kidding...

Default Soft doors

I put my soft doors on this morning. The lowers went on real smooth, just a little tweaking. The uppers were a pain, A lot of adjustments and bending, still don't fit quite right. I'm going try adjusting them better in a few days after they had a little time to stretch.

The lowers are mint. Ran with them all day today. Had our annual beach clean up and Wading River today. Evan got into a scuffle with a local ass who didn't want anyone touching the garbage on "his" property. Didn't know you can own a state beach.

The uppers are another story. I bent mine to all hell, fits well, but still pulls away at 65MPH SOMETIMES. I think a little more and it'll be set.

those look sweet. but not crazy about things like pulling away at speed.

I went to Robert Moses yesterday with my kids, fishing gear in hand, only to be turned away at every 4x4 entrance! the only place on is Democrat pt at the East entrance in field 2 (air station als closed). but you can only get on there between 7pm-8am. We wound up fishing off the pier at Oak Beach.

they do have a butt load of heavy eqt there to try & restore the beaches...hopefully soon.

Yea I shit-bagged my TPMS sensors a few months ago... And I'm glad I did. The pro-cal and super chips both disable the system so you don't have any annoying lights on the dash.

You can disable it Matt. I personally put new ones in and just reset it for my new tires.
You can buy my old Saharas for $200. There are 4 good tires and rims with tpms inside. Then you would have extras.
Otherwise maybe give Evan a ring being as he was the one to blow it.
