    Can't believe this build... Great looking truck man. At times I have second thoughts on my RCD db kit, how hard was it to go back? I dont know about fabtech but rcd I had to cut part of the sub frame for the diff. saved the piece though.

    Thanks. Most difficult thing was figuring out the diff mount, instead of welding back in a stock member we used a piece of square stock. I can't take credit for the fab work though! Rbraddock and his buddy really did the leg work on figuring out how to do that. Took a great group of local TW guys an entire weekend to revert back from the DB kit.

    I didn't read through the 40+ pages, but from the first post I can safely say that I LOVE your build. One day my 2012 DCLB hopes to grow up and be like your truck.

    Just ordered a few more goodies for the truck. It's going to be crazy busy to get all of this stuff installed.

    ATO Shackle Flip
    Powertank ARB Solenoid manifold (to plumb into my 'one off' OBA system)

    Other crap awaiting install:
    Pelfreybilt Skids (IFS/MID/REAR/GAS TANK)
    ICON Air Bumps w/ brackets for rear
    Iggy Switch panel
    Skygear's Iggy Switch panel harness
    Powertank ARB Solenoid manifold (to plumb into my 'one off' OBA system)

    Need to order some new rear shocks and some +2 axles for the spare CV's and then the assembled thirds from ECGS and I'm done for awhile!!

    Love your pickup man looks sick!! How do you like those Goodyear MTRs? They have good tread wear? I'm going to be getting bigger tires soon and I'm not sure what I want.

    Sweet thanks man. Not sure what I want yet I like the way those look. So I might have to give those a shot.

    Sooo... You're coming to Moab with a 2012 DC that has full armor, LT, 35's -AND- lockers? My 2012 is going to be so jealous! I can't even give it the typical excuse of "don't worry, when you're as old as that one you'll be all decked out too".
