    I tapped into the rear speakers. But I tapped into them behind the HU because I have a DPST switch inline, and mounted on the dash, so I can control when to turn it on and off

    Finally got around to finishing the rear OBA and CB antenna mount. Jerry from BAMF welded the piece on last weekend at mod day. I reran the plumbing for the OBA and rerouted the CB antenna from when it used to sit on the passenger side.

    Hey MJ, any rubbing issues with the rear shocks on those trail team rims and spidertrax spacers? Im looking to get the shock relocation kit and was wondering.
    Thanks.

    Hey Mike, no rubbing issues at all. But then again, didn't really get to really flex it too much this past weekend. When we tested it after the install, Jerry measured a little over an inch clearance from tire to shock at full droop - and that was pretty much the 1.25" provided by the spydertrax spacers

    Wow! Been busy renovating my new house that I've neglected this truck a bit. Thought I'd provide an update. I added a 42" curved LED bar from @trexTRD link. Thanks to @Baoser for the assistance.

    IMG_0291.jpg

    And added a 2nd Viair 450c compressor. I put it in the tool box, but wanted a breathable barrier for it so I cut up a milk crate and fit it in the space.

    And here are more shots of camping this past weekend in the Tahoe National Forest IMG_0287.jpg

    Used all of the armor quite a bit. Only real damage was from my rear bumper crashing down on a boulder and the bumper shifted upward and bent the bed side
