That's Mr Asshole to you
full tank of gas? maybe the front lift shifted the distribution of more weight to the rear? Maybe you broke something in Colorado?
Mounted up the Roam Adventure batwing tonight with the new mounts I setup. The location worked out nicely so I fully opened it up to check it out with the rear hatch. There was a little issue there but it can be resolved. My issue tonight is that I found a few small holes in the awning material. I emailed Roam and will see what they have to say tomorrow.

Just re-read your post. 1.5" sag on the driver side sounds like something broke. Have you given it a visual inspection?
I know a guy who recently took his factory springs off a 2018 with 2k mi on the odo. I bet he'd come off them cheap if you determine it to be the spring. I don't know what would effect the suspension height that much outside of the spring.

Did a quick visual, the car drives fine as far as I can tell. I feel like I'd notice something broken.
May be a good time to order those dobson springs I was planning on. I'll give it a good look over this weekend.

I made use of the spare mounting parts from the roof rack and used some extra long wheel studs to make mounts for the traction boards. Overall they were a lot cheaper than the Tred mounts and work for my needs.
Pretty sure @tex needs to coat those in tire shine for UV protection!

Then they will be so slick they will not work as traction mats!

Went to go pull a Praise Jesus Coldbeer out of the ARB fridge and got a 74* Praise Jesus Warmbeer...
Ran this battery for 6 years. Damn good battery and solar setup to keep it going.

I was thinking about working around the house and maybe the Tacoma this weekend, but I have friends camping 40 min away next to a clean shallow river. Might just throw my tarp in the car tonight and head down. Decisions decisions. 95*+ temps all week here, but of course today and the rest of the weekend it will be in the high 70's with rain.

Same thing happened to me this week. Fridge read 84* when I was giving the 4Runner a wash/wax.
Sam's was running the $20 off deal again, so I picked up a new Duracell AGM.
Well the guy at Roam was in quick contact with me and stayed in contact over the holiday weekend over this. They were willing to replace the entire awning material but they did not have the tan material in stock. So they are taking the bat wing awning back and refunding me. Overall I am really happy with how they are handling it. They stood by the claim that they either wanted the product to be perfect or not be out there.

Swapped the factory sport wheels for some of these FJ trails. They have a 15mm offset difference from the factory wheels, which should get me .6" of clearance. In theory, this allows me to ditch the spacers. I hope the theory is correct because I already sold the spacers...
