    Great vid, as per usual. If/when you do decide to part ways with this truck I'd love the opportunity to get a shot at it. I currently own (bought it new) a 2019 AT4 with a few mods installed, all inspired by you and your channel. However, it pales in comparison to what yours looks like and I'm envious to the point that I want yours.
    Please keep me in mind, because we all know at some point you're going to want to take on your next project, requiring you to part ways with your AT4 and I'm seriously interested.
    Keep up the great content (and public service).

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  Před 3 měsíci

      I was there, it definitely crippled the city in January 2007. Similar snowfall then with 36cm and 30-45cm this March of 2024. I think what made 2007 worse was that the wind was quite a bit higher too. Plus this recent one gave us a 6-8 hour break from more snow

I have a 2020 elevation and I have been always thinking about put some 1 1/2" spacers just for the look to the wheels but still don't know if it is a good idea , I have heard many different opinions. I saw your video doing it and I like it... do you think is ok, you still keep them on your truck, what is your opinion? Keep the good job and thanks so much.

    @troysciberras8142 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Are you happy with the 1.5 spacers? Would 2.0 have been better? Thanks in advance. Great channel.

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  Před 3 měsíci

      Yes I am. As for which is better, I think it depends on what you’re trying to achieve. Depending on the wheels, introducing spacers may create rubbing and the need to trim things. I am running a 2” right now since these wheels didn’t come in the offset (at the time) that I wanted. They do now. But I had to trim and tuck some things in the front to help with clearance. 1.5” on my stock 18” wheels were perfect, but I wanted bigger tires and quieter tires.

    • @troysciberras8142
      @troysciberras8142 Před 3 měsíci

      Sounds good. I’m sticking with my stock 18’s so I’ll go with the 1.5. Thanks again for all the great info.

      Yes I installed one. No problems. I installed a drain hose too so I didn’t have to empty the can in the winter. Instead when the engine is hot, I can drain it behind the passenger front wheel into a container by opening a spigot.
