    I have too. Glad that this build has become an Expo Build. When I first got it, I kinda just threw a bunch of parts on it and now I actually have parts I want to buy for a reason!

    Would be fun! I'm afraid to take my truck off road until the Icons and Leaf Pack go on.

    Wish I had one. For now, I took the tent off and it's better.
    True but this is my daily driver that I can't afford to have broken :(

    As long as you're not going into crazy negative arch on your springs or bottoming out your shocks, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Take that bitch into to dirt!

    Looking at getting some amber pods for my fog light location. I really like the brand of light bar I have (@SDSOffroadLighting) and think I might stick with them. Only problem is that their amber pods are all 6 LEDs and they will have to be mounted sideways on my bumper. Do you guys think that would look weird? They said that they will probably get 4 LED pods in the future.

    Here are their Pods:

    [​IMG]

    I'd mount them on the tab on the side of the plate on the bumper just below the light bar. You can see it here:

    You could make a bracket to set them level? Not sure how that'd look though

    yeah I think whatever I do will look best if I use the mounting tab built in. Might wait for 4 LED pods. I don't think it would look bad. I guess if I really didn't like the look I could sell them and get Square ones. Not too pricey.
