    Trimmed the fenders some more before heading out camping/light wheeling. Still rubbing a bit on the drivers side and barely at all on the passenger side.

    Here is some shots. Gotta love Wyoming :)

    operation is simple. Just put these two pins and it slides down to drilled holes in the ladder to lock in place. Has on set of drilled holes but you can easily add your own for a custom height. Which i will do at least 2 more sets.
