    Just remembered i have some another set of stock tpms sensors at the home. I can mail them to you if you want them when i get back.

    Now where i put them in the garage is a different story. But if you want them they are yours. Itll solve your wheel dilemma.

    Appreciate the offer but the issue is that I want two sets of wheels with sensors that have the same ID's programmed to them. That way I can swap back and forth between the wheel sets as I please and not have to worry about having to reprogram anything. I've found a solution, I just have to wait a few days to enable it.

    In other news...

    I didnt know if the stock sensors could be reprogrammed or not with a new sensor id.

    Looks good! See it tomorrow hopefully!

    Relentless. Taking the measurements from the new fenders tomorrow so that Eric has them as I'm pretty close to the top of the build queue now.

    Had a pretty good day today at the shop. @ChandlerDOOM and @Sacrifice got their needle bearings pulled and their solid spacers installed. I mostly just hung out and pointed to the general area that requested tools might be located. My mods for the day were fairly pedestrian. Installed a set of Extreme Outback "NoLoss" valve caps. Everything went fine until I realized that the reason one of them kept spinning was because it had never been tapped for threads. Reinstalled my front dash cam. I had taken it down when I had the clear window film put on the windshield to help reduce glare and had been procrastinating about hanging it back up for awhile.

    @ChandlerDOOM got a bunch of comparison pictures that will hopefully show the differences between the factory, and the new McNeil fiberglass fenders. Stay tuned.

    Not certain, I haven't seen the equipment for mounting tires onto regular one piece wheels in his shop, but I dropped him a text to make sure because he is always dragging something new out so he might have something in the back.

    No dice. He said he'd have to run them to town to get them done.

    Forgot to mention, @ChandlerDOOM and I swung out to Wolf Fab before he left and on the way out of town we stopped at a local scale. As it sits, my truck weighs 5,280 pounds with a 3/4 tank of gas.
