    Nice! Love the top. Bumpers look great too, especially the rear with the swing arm.

    Really nice build man! I have a similar build started but have not started install until bumper comes in. The rear view of the truck is badass.Do you have spacers? Stance is nice.

    Rear bumper probably weighs about 100-110. It's honestly not much more weight than what was there since I had the towing package. I can still tow. Receiver is behind the license plate.

    Too many to list now.
    Nice build man! Brute Force FTW! Got any shots of the dual battery setup? I'm still trying to figure mine out. Wondering if I can fit it under the back seats potentially.

    I'll try to get some pics of the dual battery setup soon. It fits just fine in the engine compartment. No need to do any crazy relocate. I used the blue torch fab box to mount it all in then set up the IBS system on top. It'll make more sense when I show some pics. I did have to modify the BTF dual box quite a bit. If you don't have the capability to work with metal then it's not the best solution. I

    Nice! What made you decide on a soft topper instead of a fiberglass one?

    But is it tits? I guess I'd be too afraid to leave anything of value back there.

    Lol I live in South Dakota. Not much of an issue for me. If some one was willing to tear my Softopper open to get something inside I'm almost positive they would break a glass window on a hard topper too. Totally tits.

    It is definitely a security issue when your doing true overland travel. I bought it because I needed something temporarily while I fabricate a new bed rack system that will be multi-functional and very secure
