Crawl Control Installation

I added Crawl Control this morning. It took about two hours of research to make sure that I knew what I was doing and about 20 minutes of actual effort.

Parked her next to another GX.

Got stuck for the first time today in this mud pit. Bottomed out. There is definitely an art to not going too fast and not going too slow. I think a lift kit will be coming sooner than later.

I don't know what springs the shop put in - the only important thing is that they are the right size to fit in your springs.

I tried running them into stock compressor and squat sensor system - it didn't work well. I'm changing it to a manually controlled compressor system so I can level it out.

Changed my differential and transmission oils, powder coated wheels. Next stop is change my calipers to neon or yellow, still debating. GX a bit filthy, too many back roads on the trip.
