    Thanks! Just not fast enough... Still a big pile of parts to get installed. Worked today on finishing the Clear Bra Wrap Project. Should finish that tomorrow morning.

    Finished "Project Plastic Wrap" yesterday. My brother helped with the install; 2 people are required when working with large sections of film. I purchased a bulk roll of it 5 x 50ft 3M Ventureshield "clear bra". This was perfect size for covering large areas like the entire hood and roof. The entire truck has been wrapped. Project took about 4 days and 15-20hrs. This was our first time working with clear bra and after getting the install figured out it took 1-2hrs per body panel to install (depending on complexity).

    Is it easy to get off though?

    Or does it just dissolve?

    It peals off... I've taken small sections off. Doesn't damage the paint and easy to do.

    Do you have a link to this product? I was thinking I'd like to put something like this on my rocker panels before I put my slidders on so I can feel better about taking my mud flaps off. Do you think that product is heavy duty enough to prevent some rock chips? Great work on the build!

    Taco work day... Installed OME 886 Springs, Nitro Charger Sport Shocks, AP Spindle Gusset, AP Upper A-arms, APEX Bed Rack. Lift height is perfect (for me). It has 3.25" of down travel at ride height. Not sure about the actual lift amount... It's somewhere in the 2-3" range. On road ride comfort seems good. Sway bar is slightly touching the spring seat (may need to look at options to re-position). Tires barely clear the spindle gusset (like 1/4" or so). Huge thanks to Brad for his help!
